Elvira...

Aw crap - Here I had decided to stay up to date and almost a week goes by without me noticing! I can't keep track of the days anymore! Busy busy - though I can't complain cause that's the way I like it! I guess I've had time to blog - just chosen a movie or a nap instead :)
Not really feeling much like giving an extensive detailed update - so this should probably be pretty brief.

Tuesday was a completely lazy day. Rach and I sat on the couches most of the day watching telly, only getting up to use the toilet and eat lunch and dinner. I needed one of those days tho - a completely 100% chill day.

Wednesday was the usual for a Wednesday - consisting of office work (finalizing the website and searching for apts to let), Biblestudy and prayer, and a movie to cap off the evening.

Yesterday was brilliant! One of those days you look back on and think "Yes, God has everything under control." Had a nice lie in and then headed into town to visit with my girl Jamie-Lee, who I fondly refer to as "Jamesters". I met her about 8 months ago at Street Reach and she became one of my instant favorites. We ran a couple of errands before ending up at the one and only Starbucks :) Best spot for a chat tho I must say! We got to visiting - and had some really good conversations.

We departed ways and I headed to Tescos for a much needed shopping trip. Ems picked me up at the end and we headed off to youth club (so nice not having Junior Youth on right now. Really frees up my Thursdays and takes an extra pressure off me) The Loft Youth was good tonight - but a bit different cause we are currently without a gameroom (the new one wont be finished until 2 weeks) Not much for the kids to do so Alan brought the message a bit sooner. It was an incredible word! Also James from AAB came! So glad he finally made it! Not sure how he liked it but I'll ask him tomorrow.

The service ended last night abruptly thanks to the fire alarms. Still don't know what really set them off (the enemy perhaps) but needless to say everyone left soon after.

Woke up this morning to the dang alarm. I had to walk all the way to the lobby to turn it off so I was wide awake thereafter. Worked in the office completing the website (gosh I miss Jacs so much being here!) and then I headed off to town for Street Reach. Alot of the teens were out! Spent most of my time with Colin, Jack, and Malachy. Beth and Daniel came out! And Jenn, Gary, Jade, John, Gemma, Woody, Stevie, Amy, Martin, and several others were out as well.

Have I mentioned how much I adore these kids?!?

Well I have a full day tomorrow! Can't wait until AAB - and then going out with Ems to Nicole's house! Hope everyone at home is doing well!

ps I forgot to mention Elvira! So Cecil owns a hospital out here and they've just recently moved some of their training classes over here at our offices. They brought in all kinds of hospital-like things to use for demonstrations, one of those being a full sized hospital bed with a dummy! That thing has freaked out several people (me on a regular basis). So, I named her. . . felt like maybe it would make her less creepy. I would post a picture on here - but I'm not keen on going to her in the middle of the night. (And I'm a wee bit scared LOL!) One day maybe. She went missing a week ago - So so disturbing!
