Sleeping.
I'm reading Bravehearts by Sharon A. Hersh and although generally what she's saying is good food for thought, she uses so many references and quotes that it is making it tough to get through.
I did finally get into my next (after 2 from winter break) Francine Rivers book The Scarlet Thread. I just hope it's not too similar to And The Shofar Blew. Her The Last Sin Eater did top my charts as being my second favorite fiction of all-time, Persuasion by Jane Austen is now third. Love's Secret Storm, I say, will never be removed from its rank as one.
I have quite a few books piled here by my air mattress that have been gazing up at me as well as some from B&N that will be coming shortly.
My rain did turn into a beautiful day today, although Dad said it would be too cold to go to the beach. But I have a beach (something that was needed at the Pointe) so I might as well take advantage. My bleached-like legs are now the color of my cheeks when... nevermind. Praise the Lord for sunshine and a most beautiful ocean that takes my breath away when being reminded that it is still less than God's love for me!
I'm not doing anything exciting for Memorial Day.
But I did eat Alejandro's yesterday (notice the possessive referring to a restaurant not the person). Some things never change (although I'm a big fan of Cholula now which made my nose run and eyes water - mmm, mmm, good!)
AND... I received this e-mail this morning:
Katie,
Greetings from Weno where I am now living until July
1. I moved over here from Tol after graduation there
to teach a course at the TF. I saw some staff at
Mizpah and they said they missed you and to say hello.
I told them that you were jealous of me coming here.
They seems to like the fact that you missed Chuuk and
them. Trust your studies and work are going well.
Love in Christ, "Grandpa Steve" (as the students call me)
:o)
But I would like to spend lots more time with the Lord. So you can pray for me about that. Thanks.
