A Very Smelly Blog

Hello, friends! Be glad you can't smell me right now. I just returned from a workout at the YMCA, which was delightful... and made me very sweaty. I promise to shower soon. Anyway, allow me to tell you about my week!

Tuesday afternoon I visited with some Mormon missionaries at their church on Stadium Drive. They visited University Lutheran in return Wednesday afternoon. I gave them the tour and we played some ping-pong. Sister Iosua and Sister Miller are exceptionally friendly, and it was refreshing to be able to speak openly and honestly about our different faiths. Since we are all missionaries, we discovered that we have a good deal in common. I'm hoping that as we continue meeting together, we'll be able to have a great friendship!

On Tuesday evening, we had our first grad student/young adult gathering at Midtown Caboose. It was a great time! We had fun conversation and delicious food. I had a s'more burger. It was incredibly messy but so tasty!

Other than their visit and our staff meeting, my Wednesday was a bit off. My alarm didn't go off, so I slept through a meeting with PJ. I spent my day mostly working on Real Life College Faith, but I kept getting frustrated. Because of that, I didn't take time to prepare myself mentally for Vespers, and I feel I didn't do very well leading. After Vespers, I decided to call it a night and watched How to Train Your Dragon to cheer myself up. (It worked. Toothless is my favorite!)

Today was a better day. It started out with my one-on-one with PJ. He helped me process through my frustration from Wednesday. Again, I worked on RLCF most of the day, and I didn't get frustrated this time. I came up with a theme and wrote the Bible studies for the weekend. I then went over to the community garden. We had such a big group that we were able to weed nearly the entire garden and still have time to have fun with the kids.

Coming up is our Super Bowl party Sunday. Should be a good time! No pictures for you this week, but I'm planning to have another picture blog next week. Get excited, my dear redheaded sister-in-law!
