9:44a - The Mundane Wonder of Rita's Life
My goodness, it seems like an eternity since I've posted! Where does the time go? Weekends certainly have wings... Saturday was filled with outreach, a long serious talk with a friend who is struggling, a trip to the post office and the grocery store, a nice nap, and a phone call inviting me to a friend's house.
( Details, details, tra-la-la! )
Well, that does sound like a busy weekend, now that I look back on it. And Monday was hectic too, with a last-minute project demanding all my time here at work--I just barely finished by the end of the day (I stayed late), and had to fly to get to class on time! But I made it, and all was well. I got most of my homework done, and Sophie came over for tea and conversation afterwards. What a blessing she is. :) I wish you all could meet her.
I have a prayer request, before I forget... the tickets for the Romania trip look like they will cost more than we had thought! I spent quite a while yesterday trying to find a cheap ticket that won't carry us all over creation first, or leave us in foreign countries for 7 or 8 hour layovers! I'm getting worried... many of our group may not scrape together the money to go, especially if it's going to be more than $550. Please pray.
On another note, I'm considering going on the Atkins diet for a few weeks... I know that it's not the healthiest way to lose weight (they say it can't be good for your heart), but I do know that it works very effectively. I lost eight pounds last time I tried it about three years ago, and I wasn't on it long. I'm the type who needs structure in a diet, and I think I can do Atkins (although not for long--I love bread too much!) because I'm cooking more now. Meats and vegetables and such. I'd just like to drop a few pounds and fit into some things that I miss wearing. You know. :)
