On Wednesday, we were all hoping our boss would tell us at noon that we could scoot on out. We waited, and waited and waited. It was lunch time and I went to the break room. Five minutes into lunch, he came in and said we could go! I tried not to eat too fast, but I was too excited for a few afternoon hours without work. Later that night, I went to see Lincoln with some friends. It was good, but long and slow. I would redbox it.
Thursday I got up at a leisurely pace, made this vegan apple cranberry pie and worked out. I got ready and headed off to my friend Daisie's uncle's house. After dinner, I went to my community group leaders house.We went around in a circle and shared what the Lord has done in our lives over the past year, prayed together and then drank wine by the fire. It was special and sweet. I didn't go to bed until 2am.. TWO am. Totally not like me.
Friday, I woke up, leisurely again (sound like groundhog day anyone?) worked out, did laundry, etc. I went to be with my church friends, again for a post-thanksgiving potluck. I knew it would be a late night again, but I have been feeling so refreshed from this weekend, that I did not mind. For the first hour or so, I mingled and ate some dinner. Then, Michael Jackson came on and I didn't stop dancing until the cops showed up at 12:45am. Again, not like me to be up so late. I was having the time of my life doing the dance to 'bye bye bye' and 'billie jean'.
Today has been filled with movies, a nice run outside in my favorite spot of town and grocery shopping. Hope y'all didn't mind the play-by-play. This weekend has been incredibly refreshing, giving and filling all at the same time. I am thankful for every single grace and gift I have that I do not deserve.
