May 8

Ah, a day off. You gotta love Saturdays. I've been going at it this week non-stop, it seems. It's a lot to process, and I definitely enjoyed the extra 3 hours of sleep. I got up at noon and took the dogs on a walk.

This is Sammy. She's 8. She farts sometimes, but other than that, she's sweet.

I then watched a little FC Barcelona football. It was a nice 3-2 win... should've been a little more comfortable, but a win is a win. Only one more game for Barça, and with a win, they will win the league by one point. They should do it. Back-to-back champs. I'm excited... take that Real Madrid! You can't handle keep up with the boys from Catalonia... especially Messi!

After watching the soccer game, I went up to the church to put the Sunday morning booklets, handouts, games, and other stuff in their respective places. I finished some copies that I thought I made but didn't... so I got that finished up by 5:00.

I went to the 5pm Saturday church service, and it was a traditional service, but Bill's message was the same that it will be tomorrow. Aside from it being Mother's Day weekend, Quad-C is also doing their Baby Dedication Sunday this weekend too. Tonight, there were 5 babies that were dedicated. It was a short little dedication, and I feel that the Children's Ministry should have had a hand in that. I don't think they did, or I probably would've been told about that. Oh well. The service was good though.

After the service, I went around the building, looking in the storage rooms to see if any ideas for Camp Timberlake for the challenges. I didn't find anything that sparked any ideas, but I didn't look very long. At least I am becoming more comfortable with where everything is in the building. It's not a HUGE building, but I'm still not real familiar with it. Now I feel better... but still would like to know where to find things when I need them. You know what I mean? It's annoying to walk around the building, not knowing where to look to find construction paper, extension cords, cotton balls, costumes, etc. Yeah. It's just that kind of stuff that wastes time because I don't know where they are. I'll learn though.

I came home around 7:30pm, ate some McD's... blah... and walked the dogs again. I actually jogged with them a little bit, and I might do that more often, especially with Heidi. I don't know if Sammy can handle jogging the whole time. She hurt her paw a little over a week ago, and seems to be completely over that... but I'd rather not push it and her re-injure herself. The walk was kind of chilly, because a cold front has blown through Nebraskee. About 50-55 degrees. Not freezing, but not 75 degrees.

This is Heidi. She's 4 years old. She is the hyper and slobbery one of the two.

Now, I've just finished watching the Lakers-Jazz game, and it was a good game. I'll probably go to bed early, for no other reason than I'm bored. Hopefully I won't be so bored next week. I'm excited though, because tomorrow I get to go Manhattan and be with Holly. That's another good reason to go to bed early... so that tomorrow will come faster.

And with that, I'm off. Hope you're having a good, non-boring night/day... unlike me. :p
