Week 28: Whining and Dining


Um, so seriously, what am I supposed to write a full page about? This week was slightly uneventful. Monday and Tuesday we basically did nothing except recover and write papers. Wednesday and Thursday were half spent raking pine needles. Nothing too exciting there. Mrs. Carrie did open up her car and blast music for us to listen to while we worked though, which was awesome. Thursday night was pause, and we celebrated Trevor. We ate lasagna and I made brownies. After we ate, the girls went to a women’s prayer thing and then learned the opener with Megan for the Women’s Conference this weekend. That was a lot of fun. The boys went out to the paintball arena and played Assassin and Zombie Apocalypse. Our speaker this week’s name was Preston and he is the co-author of Erasing Hell which he wrote with the one and only Francis Chan in response to Love Wins by Rob Bell. He went through the book Love Wins with us and explained some things that really challenged our thinking in the book. The book itself is pretty good, although very misguided at points.
 (Is this a full page yet? No? fine…)

This weekend I worked as a dining host. This women’s conference had about 575 women. It was insane, but good. There weren’t as many crazies this time as last time. There was, however, 22 special diet ladies which made put the kitchen in a frenzy. I forgot how much I don’t like being a dining host. Don’t get me wrong, I love serving and interacting with the guests. It’s the other dining hosts I can’t stand. Even though they are my Joshua siblings, when it comes to work I seriously do not like most of them. It frustrates me beyond belief that they can’t do what they are asked exactly as they were told to do it. And when I’m trying to do something and they want to do it a different way than I’m already doing it, it stressed me out. Urg! Flip a table! Anyway, that was my little work rant. I needed to vent a little (and fill up this page).

I’m crazy exhausted now. Then tomorrow we are back to raking pine needles at 8am. Whoopie… only 2 more weeks. I can do this.
