The Worst is Over...I hope.

So,

I think I jinxed myself yesterday. All that talk about being too busy to be lonely. Oops. But I will get to that later...

Anyway...last night was really fun. I picked Jenny up from the Marriot downtown (after getting lost for a half hour) and then we drove to Fisherman's Wharf to grab some dinner, followed by a walk down to Pier 39 to say hello to my sea lion friends:). Then we had a sleepover at the Marriot and I took Jenny to the airport at 4am.

Now today was a different story. Because I took Jenny so early, I went back home and slept in (figuring that I would find a late service for church). I kept myself busy this morning cleaning my room and doing laundry. And there it was...nothing. I had nothing to do, nowhere to go, no one to call (to hang out with at least). Today was my first day of nothingness, and wow was it hard. I think I talked to Luke about 5 times today. In fact, I think I spoke on the phone to various people for more than half my day. I was pretty upset today because I had a VERY hard time finding a church. I must have searched online for 2 hours or so. When I didn't find anything online, I planned on returning to the church Luke and I went to last week (which we liked a lot but it was a bit of a drive), but after looking at their website I realized this was the one Sunday of the month that there was no night service. Great timing. After a minor breakdown on the phone with Ev, followed by a great pep-talk, I was feeling a bit better. Then I made a terrific frozen pizza, talked to Luke for the 5th or 6th time ;) and decided to take Dylan on a walk. Dylan is my "landlord's" dog. He is adorable.

On our walk I literally stumbled onto a walking trail that went up the hills. I was so excited! It was the most gorgeous view of Novato. It was my gift from God today. It was a great time to think, pray, and thank God for what I do have here. Like I said... He has a lot planned for me this summer and I have a lot to learn.

Oh, and Beth...you commented to soak up some sun for you....about that... it was about 52 degrees here today. Aaaand that's normal for San Francisco summer..haha. But I actually prefer it to Florida's sufficating heat. Oh! Attention all skype people...I officially bought a webcam today! I should have it in about 3-5 days, according to amazon. So get excited:) I also bought "crazy/love: overwhelmed by a relentless God" today. It is a book by Francis Chan that Katie has been raving about for the past 6 months or so. Luke and I are planning to go through it together, and I can't wait! ;)

I am so happy that tomorrow is a workday. Thank goodness I love my job! I can't explain how much I miss every single one of you. Is it wrong to wish for this summer to go by fast? For so many reasons I wish that it would fly by...but I know better than that. It will. And when it does, I will miss it. (maybe) ha.

Luke, i don't know how to do a shout out in a blog. Buuuut... you are awesome. And soon enough you will know more than I do about movies:) hahaha. How's that?;)
