wow...

i'm thankful today... not that i'm not thankful other days, but today... wow... a friend took me out to lunch and it was so great... i basically spilled my guts about everything going on in my life, and then i said, "okay... advice? thoughts?" which is what i've been getting a lot of lately... a lot... a lot... a lot... and he just said, "you've already gotten enough advice... i'm just here to be ears..."

i went to 2 different churches this morning... i went to visit a church in the area and then i went to the church i'm a member of... there are things i gleaned from the church i visited... the feeling is very evident in my life... i think i'm moving soon... i'm not sure where... i'm not sure what i'll do... 2 things are certain... i have a job right now (that i plan on keeping until i can find something else) and school starts tomorrow... (which i'm getting excited about again...) other than those two things, i'm not sure what is next... which is kind of half-scary, half-fun... and i've been hearing so much stuff about elijah lately... i need to be studying more stuff about elijah... i even wrote in my journal as i heard more about elijah today "what are You trying to teach me, Daddy?" i will probably post what i learn...

i got an email from one of my campers which was so encouraging... i've been wondering if i would hear anything from any of them and i've been meaning to email them, and was planning on it tomorrow during school breaks... so that was awesome... i'm going to email her back right now!!!

i got to talk to my brother today for 45 minutes... my brother is one of the coolest people i've ever had the privilege of knowing... when we were kids and i cheated at all the games and ALWAYS won, he didn't get mad at me and always still played with me... and when we played super mario on nintendo and i had messed up on something dumb (because i was mario always) and it was his turn and i hit restart, he didn't get mad at me... and now... i look up to him so much, not only in the physical sense, since he is WAY taller than me... but in the spiritual sense... he has a huge heart and is totally devoted to the ministry he's invested in right now... even if it is challenging and not always what he expected... and he laughs at the same jokes as me... i hate that i don't get to see him all the time (i took it for granted in college when i saw him almost everyday) because he lives on the east coast now and i live on the west coast... anyway... enough praise for my brother... he's just SO GREAT!!!

and... whoever wrote the anonymous comment from the "camp" entry... you have no idea... really... no idea... thank you... i don't know if the anonymity was on purpose or not... but thank you...

random thoughts all piled together... what do you expect? it's the way my mind works!!!

is that it? i'm not going to church tonight... i think i'm going to go "be" for a while... i have some "vision" stuff to work on and want to read and just "be" and maybe do a bit of studying up on some stuff... just take a break before school starts tomorrow... i may go buy school supplies... I LOVE SCHOOL SUPPLIES!!! (even if it makes me a nerd!)

oh... i will add some websites, much from the prompting of amy...

9. http://thesountrackofmydreams.blogspot.com - amy's blog which is awesome...
10. www.homestarrunner.com - which is really funny, but i'm never at a computer that is fast enough with sound to be able to enjoy it fully...

that's going to be all for right now... i might add more later... and another website i look at is another friend's blog, but i don't have permission to post it on my blog right now, so i won't... i've never looked at www.funtrivia.com - so i'll have to check it out sometime...

okay, i'm going to go play for a while... have fun!
