We all know that I'm not good about posting regularly on meaningless, but now Ron has called me out on it. He basically said that he has become me because it had been a month since his last post. It is true that I tend to post once a month, but come on man that's so public. Then he proceeded to give me some excuses for not posting, like a youth mission trip and other things. Well, that was only a week out of my life and school has been out for like a month, so thanks for the help but it all boils down to laziness. Anyway there are things that I can talk about here, so here I go.
I did go on a mission trip and it was overall a pretty good trip. I did have one youth that got sick and we had to spend the night in the hospital. That was really fun (note the sarcasm), but we made it through it. He is fine now, so no worries. We work at a place that helped families in homelessness doing the little things that their staff can't get to because of the enormous amount of paperwork they have to do with the families that they serve. It was really a cool organization.
Other than that the summer has been good. I will be working in the business office at Saint Paul, so I will be that guy behind the window sometimes. I start tomorrow so that's cool.
Christie and I have a new to us car to drive around now, which means that the green bean (my van) is no longer mine. It was a little sad but now I get to drive the cavalier which is fun to drive (and more economical).
Finally I want you guys to check something out. I heard this on NPR today on my way to Church it is from their series call "This I believe," and I thought that there are several people who could relate to this and agree with this man's outcome.
