A Long Day

It is 8:34 AM. I am in school right now, and I am done. I am done every single piece of work that I was assigned today. I have shop until 11:00. Needless to say, I think this day will be a long one for me.

I'll keep myself busy by playing Mini Putt. This is one of the only fun, online games that my school's blocking software will allow. My lowest score is 24. Can anyone beat it?

In other news, we finally have a a new car! It is really nice. It's a '98 Honda Oddessy. Of course, I haven't really seen it in daylight yet, only because we bought it and drove it at night. I heard that Eric had fun messing around in it while it was at there house, and whether he did or didn't, I wouldn't put it past him.

The only downside to the new car is the old one. I felt so sad last night, taking the plates off of the old one, and locking up the car doors one last time. Driving away, and watching that car sit there, alone, was heartbreaking. Our family has had that car for almost 10 years. It was depressing to have to just, leave it there.

Thanksgiving

I'm sitting here on my bed, with my laptop on my lap, typing... and I am stuffed. I can barely keep my eyes open, but I feel bad about not posting for a week or two, so here you go.

The Wednesday Testimony/Pie service went well. I'm glad I got to share a testimony last night, and I definitely enjoyed hearing from those of you readers that were there as well. The pie was good, and the dodgeball was good too. (Even though Jenny almost took me out in both games.) It was good to see the Guggers there last night. Seeing and talking with Danny brought back a lot of memories from a long time ago.

Football this morning was also fun. A few of the calls were the most absurd things I've ever seen! (And believe me, I've seen some pretty absurd things!) I saw some things I didn't need to see, that I have too much decency to post about on a published website, so we won't go any further. Overall, this week has been pretty fun.

"Work Faithfully"

"...the men did the work faithfully... to set it forward"

2 Chronicles 34:12

Saturday is the church's Bi-Annual Work Day. This one is always a little more fun than the spring one, because of a few things. The first, is that it brings a lot of the young men together to do a faithful work for the church. Normally, doing work is not something I look forward to. But for some reason, doing it with my friends makes it fun. I also enjoy cleaning the chandelier shades with Mr. Denno. Contrary to popular opinion, Mr. Denno is a pretty nice guy to hang around with. :P I also like to jump into the leaves when they are all raked up. Once again, :P

Soldier on Wednesday was pretty fun. I ran right into Steven by mistake, but we all make mistakes, right? Anyway, I was being chased by someone, and I tripped, fell, and got my wrist bruised and swollen, and I have some very bad scrapes. It was fun though. I played with NO sweatshirt, so I don't want to hear ANYTHING about me shivering, or being cold, or being a baby! lol What do you think of Work Day, is it fun? Is it boring? Feel free to comment...

Half-days, Wednesdays, and Saturdays...

Half Days, are awesome. I'm in school now, it's about 10:05, and I get out today at 10:30! I plan on going home, drinking a large amount of Coca-Cola, playing some Madden, and topping it all off with using my computer.

Prayer Meeting last night was awesome. Pastor Eric's message from 2nd Kings, about taking a stand was not only edifying as usual, it was down-right energizing. Soldier was also energizing, (just, in a different way...) I took out Corey, and Steven, which is... not something that happens all the time. I've been running alot more lately, and I think the extra training on my leg muscles has helped my speed and endurance.

There's a teen activity coming up soon, and I am pumped! For those of you who still are in the dark about what we're doing, let me turn on a light for you. We'll be playing football! I can't wait! It should be pretty fun, as long as I don't tackle a certain someone...

Comment on anything accept for the tackling thing... even though I can smell Corey and Eric's comments a mile away....
