After a night of little sleep I woke up feeling surprisingly awake. I made breakfast, brewed some awesome Dillano's coffee and went outside to get in the car. It's about 6.20am and the train leaves at 6.34am. Normally, leaving the house at 6.20am gives us just about enough time to get there on time and this morning I also had to scrape ice off the windshields.....I guess end of fall is near and winter is right around the corner... but I made it just in time for the train to roll onto the station... I parked the car under the trees and walked calmly to the other side to get on the 6.34am train. Then, as usual, I put on my ipod and today I listened to the podcast of Kenneth Copeland and Charles Capps on my way to work..... Good stuff! :)

I had the hardest time paying attention at work today. I think mentally I've already left for Tulsa and I'm in total vacation mode already :) Three more days to go people and I'll see you all again :) Yay!

there has been a change of plans..... I'm no longer in the chili cook-off at the church picnic. No worries Dre, we'll still use your recipe and cook up some chili Friday night :)

Ciao!

Tulsa here I come!!

it's Sunday morning and I'm already in travel mode. I've started packing and I don't leave before Friday.... How am I supposed to hang on until Friday morning...? LOL

I fly into Tulsa at 4.40pm Friday afternoon, and then I have a hair appointment (thank God!) on Saturday morning.....I'm not quite sure how this happened, but I got talked into entering the Chili cook-off at the Rhema Bible Church annual picnic on Saturday... How I'm supposed to make that happen....? I don't know....shoot, I have never even made chili... I like to eat it... and the spicier the better... :) but from what I've heard it takes a while to cook.... Oh, well if any of you have any good recipes send them my way

Whatever happens, it will be fun :) and I'm so happy to see everyone again..........Better get back to packing and cleaning and my workout before church this afternoon :)

Ciao!

Sanctuary

This is such a great song. Make this your prayer today... I am.


Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary
Pure and holy, tried and true
With thanksgiving I'll be a living
Sanctuary for you

Lord I'm willing to be a sanctuary
pure and holy, tried and true
with thanksgiving I'll be a living
sanctuary for you

I guess writing this blog is turning into a once a month thing.... not much has happened since last time.... Fall is here and with that the temperature has dropped a bit and it's raining.... I was dreading fall earlier, but it's not really that bad. It's actually really pretty with the leaves changing, the wind is blowing differently and I am no longer dreading it... I bought some warmer clothes and now all I need are some really great shoes and I'm ready - for colder weather! It's been about 13 years since last time I had a Norwegian fall/winter so I've decided to make the best of it and enjoy it while it lasts :) It won't be long before I'm back in Tulsa and with that the cold prairie wind and little to no snow.... And thank God for spring in February!! :)
