Last night I went to a band concert for a few of the kids in the youth group. It seemed crazy because I was missing game 6 of a heated battle between the Detroit Red Wings and the Dallas Stars in Dallas. But, seeing as though every time I missed the game the Wings won and every time I watched they lost, I decided to put on my team's hat and go to the concert. To my ultimate excitement, the Wings were up 3-0 at the end of the first period! They went on to win 4-1 and kicked the Stars out to go on to the Stanley Cup finals against the Pens. So life is good right?
Negative.
I have been a mess the last few days because I orered a passprt for our mission trip and it came in like two weeks! That was record timing as far as I'm concerned! But, I was a little absent minded and left it back in Abilene and I cannot remember where so my brother can go get it and mail it to me! Someting that he should not have to do in the first place! I have never felt so disorganized! I knew I should have started packing earlier so I would have time to remember things like that! So, I think I may have to drive back to Abilene for a day and find it just to come back up here for work.
Wrong.
This morning, to my ultimate disappointment and the lowest I have ever been in my life, I was turning off my street to go to work and I looked down for a split second and when I looked up I ran into the gaurd rail on the side of the road. I felt like I could see anything because my front windshield was smashed. The only object in the car capable of hitting the window was my head! No worries. The only thin hurt on me is my pride. I've never been so embarassed in front of the whole ministry staff of RE helping me push the car back to my host home.
So, with no car and no passport, the next couple of weeks are looking grim. I am angry at myself for being such a bone head and not thinking. But I'm trying to be excited that at least the Wings are going to the finals. Things are starting to look up for Daisy (my car) but we'll have to wait and see.
Pray for my sanity
Shalom
