So, what did I do in August, you may have asked yourselves? Besides running & blogging like a crazy person, selling oil change cards when in Mpls, and traveling w/Tommy? Well, here are your answers.
- MOB MONDAYS - Monday nights, I & 3 other ladies watched all the Godfather movies. None of us had before. Why not?
- CHURCH-PLANTING BOOK - Worked on my church planting book. Made great strides with chapter 1. (draft finished in Sept.)
- COFFEEHOUSE - Hung out at the Red Rooster Coffeehouse a fair bit, computing, watching films they made, making art with people, talking w/folks.
- OPEN MIC - Every other Wednesday, there was an open mic. I performed poetry, laughed heartily.
- BOOK CLUB - On Wednesday nights. The Immortal Cells of Henrietta Lacks.
- READING - Other books read: The First Wives Club, Father Fiction by Donald Miller, and The Gates of Zion by Bodie Thoene.
- DRIVING - Drove a bit w/Tommy along, a bit without. That's a yawn for most o' ya, but new for me.
- SPIDER SOLITAIRE - LOTS of it. Won a sad 4% of games. Can't believe how hard it is.
- DATES - w/Tommy: Mexican food, picnic in a grove of trees, Rise of the Planet of the Apes movie, diner breakfast, or the like. * l*o*v*e * :)
- CAMPFIRES - Spent a number of evenings sitting around the fire in the back yard with lots of people.
- TV - Watched full season of Switched at Birth. Learned lots about deaf culture. Cool show!
- COUNTY FAIR - We ate fair food...
- ...saw a fainting goat...
- ...sheep in jumpsuits...
- HUMANE SOCIETY - with Tommy, Zion and her grandma, Arlene. Super cute kitties.
- THRIFT STORES - There's about 7 on the main road alone! Dollar stores. Used book stores.
- TEMP JOB PURGATORY - Waited for the phone to ring w/a temp job. Never did. They didn't return my calls. No other temp agencies in town. Bleh.
That was August! I'm back to the real world now. Working, looking for work, etc. Wearing purple hair extensions & silver glitter eyeliner. You know me. ;) Thanks for joining the adventure online w/us! Here's to many more!! - Your carefree correspondent, Christy.
