Shower of Blessings

Hey everyone,

I hope you all are doing GRRRREAT. Sorry I didn't post anything last night. I was pretty tired by the time I came in and I needed to spend a little time with Pepto before I headed to bed, and I figured I could update my journal later.

Yesturday was a good day. I ended up staying at my parents house Monday night because I was gonna have to get up early in the AM to take Dad to his eye doctor follow up appt. from his surgery on Monday. Luckily I was able to get up without much trouble at all and get him over there. He was pretty funny though because he was sooooo excited about all the stuff he could see that he wasn't able to see clearly before even with glasses (kinda makes you scared that he was even driving huh? : ) )...anyway, as we are driving around yesturday morning he's reading road signs too me and pretty much anything within sight. Soon he started apologizing for being so "weird" and I said as long as you are in a good mood ... and I guess as long as no one else is around either ( i didn't say that though : P ). After his appt. we went to Bob Evan's for breakfast and got to talk about some stuff. Its funny how this eye surgery may have helped to give him hope that the stuff he has gone through in the past came be conquered as far as spiritual stuff is concerned ( weird association but it isn't for you all to understand anyway). So I was telling him how I have seen God really blessing me in many different areas since I "gave up" my role on the praise team TO HIM. But like I said before, by no means am I giving up the gift that I feel he has given me...I am just putting it in his hands and letting go of something that I was starting to hold on for myself. But like I was saying...God truely has just been pouring out soooo many blessings which, for me, reaffirms that for right now...I made the right choice.

After that I headed back to the house to take care of some laundry and relax a little before meeting HBM at Tim Horton's. We had a lot of fun this evening. Of course I feel like I talked her ear off about PC this and PC that....its just the newest exciting thing that is happening in my life and right now no one is tired of hearing about it (YET). She also gave my a b-day present...it was pretty smelling candles. I was super excited about that because I like candles. We haven't had then lite here at the house for a while because we keep forgetting to get lighters. We finished up about 10 till and I called PC to meet up with him. I was just thinking he would come over and we could chill at the house. WEll much to my surprise...he was like..."Hey...you want to go to dinner with my parents"...ok so I guess I deserved it because I didn't tell him about my parents going to the same church as me until well...Sunday morning.

It turns out his Step Dad was not in a very good mood so he didn't join us but PC, myself and PC's mom went to a chinese place in Xenia for dinner. We had a good time just chatting about where they had grown up and what Josh was like as a kid and the pets they had and stuff. She seemed really nice and I think she likes me...I guess we'll just see what I find out from PC next time I see him (which will probably be tonight). I know we've been seeing eachother a lot lately but once school starts up for winter quarter...I'm going to be super busy with my 18 credit hours on top of working...so I want to get to know him as much as possible now. Anyway...enough with the tangent. After dinner we just drove around and talked some more. He took me by a couple of places that he used to live growing up in the Fairbornia area. Then when we got back to his place where my car was...i ended up getting lost in his plat trying to get out and taking about 5-10 minutes longer getting home than it probably should have. Oh well...it was dark.

Well I'm heading off to work. Doing the 10 -6 shift and then back here for the evening. Probably doing something PC and or PC and Pepto so the two of them can get to know each other too.

I hope you all have a great day.

Peace out!
