Some things I'm pondering lately; I'll expand soon enough:
- justice
- attitude
- tattoos (getting one, not it's moral implications or lack thereof)
- missing Dave but really not minding it as much as last summer
- God's awesome awesome provision
More to come, I'm sure!

Umm...how long has it been? Really?
So, I last wrote here like, a week and a half ago. Last week was the rest of training, warehouse orientation, worksite staff bonding, etc, etc, etc. I got to hang out with Sarah Fuller and Maria Barron, which were both exciting and fun evenings.
This past weekend I spent at Dave's house. I left around 4 on Friday, with Karli, a girl from my room who lives out there. We drove for about 100 miles in the worst rain storm I have ever been in in my life. I thought the Jeep got struck by lightening twice. We had to pull over twice because the rain was literally coming down in sheets. Friday night we just hung out, watched a movie, blah de blah. It was really good to see him - I miss him!
Saturday we did a ton of random stuff, just hung out. This morning, Dave spoke to the junior high kids at church about Nehemiah, and I went to hear him. He did so well. Then we went out for Chinese, and then I left.
I got back to the Project just in time to tell my worksite groups about their homeowners and the jobs they'll be doing. Then Trevor and I taught them about Set-up and Clean-up tasks.
So...tomorrow is the big day. It's time to really get working on the houses. I'm excited and I'm nervous, but I'm confident that it will be very rewarding. I should definitely write (but not right now) about something we did last week called a 'poverty simulator'. I'll leave you in suspense.
