Keeping up with posting finally!!! :)

Well, yesterday was interesting weather. The temperature was about 50º or higher most of the day. We had a few times of intense rain, one period strong enough that it almost looked like the storm at summer camp at one of the calmer parts! That's saying a lot. :)

One family wasn't able to make it yesterday, so that was a bummer. We had only one worship service as well as class, due to the Presbyterian church, whose building we use, needing it for longer than normal in the morning/afternoon and then a bunch in the evening. They had a children's Christmas pageant, and they needed to set up for it a lot. When we got there, the entire platform was covered with sheets and poofy cotton for snow. We grabbed a lectern from downstairs for Dad to use, and it seemed to work well. We also had communion yesterday, so we had to grab a table from another place to put the elements on. Overall, it was a blessed day.

Today's been fun. I did five school lessons, starting with an English review and then a test that I didn't do the best on, as I hadn't quite figured out when to use who and when to use whom. Don't bother commenting to tell me how. :) I also did some physics and math.

We went out on the town tonight, really living it up. After stopping at Rite-Aid quickly, we went to Kroger and Aldi. Then, we headed off to the gourmet Italian restaurant known as Fazoli's. Their pizza was especially scrumptious. Finally, for the highlight of the night, we visited the wonderful land of Walmart. I ended up getting a couple things for myself--a pair of 88% Merino Wool socks (very nice) and a new Hawaiian-style shirt, since mine is getting old. After this wild excitement, we came back home, where our across-the-driveway neighbor presented us with a plate of gingersnap cookies (of which I've already had six--they're wonderful.) While I'd been getting a lot of exercise walking around Walmart, I decided I needed more so I walked to the library, about 4 blocks away.

The walk was nice, even with the temperature being in the 20's. I got to the library and found a few good books and at least one not so good. I checked out a Clive Cussler book that's pretty new, and also got "Mere Christianity" by C. S. Lewis. As well, I got a DVD that I'm about to start in.

I think that's been about it. Just so you know, I was kinda exaggerating about it being a big night out on the town. It's not too big. It was kinda fun tho. :) Good night.
