I guess I haven't written much about everyday life lately. My next post will probably be about how much Susannah Spurgeon has inspired me, but for now I think I'll just write a slice of life post about the past couple days.
My weekend started on Thursday night. That past week has been extremely busy with school work (2 long papers and a test), as can be attested to by the fact that laundry has been waiting to be put away for about a week and a half, and the dishes weren't done for 3 days. d-: But Thursday night the last paper was turned in, so Adam and I went to the Coffee House on campus for a little bit.
For those who have been in school recently, did you ever meet someone near the middle or end of the semester, get to talking, and realize that you've been in the same class with him or her the whole semester? Ok, that has happened to me FOUR times in the past month, and all were in the same class. I couldn't believe it. One was on Thursday at the coffee house (the most embarrassing one was my neighbor!).
Anyways, we had a nice evening Thursday and caught up on some of the shows we've didn't get to watch earlier in the week due to school (Lost and Flashforward)...anybody else watch Lost? How crazy was that episode?!
Yesterday, I went to Pregnancy Support Services, where I've started volunteering on Friday mornings. It was my second time being there, and I just love it. Seeing the girls that come in, and sometimes the babies they bring, is awesome. But I also just love being around the other women who volunteer and work there. It's so encouraging to be around like-minded, but different people. (If you want to support me in the Walk for Life next Saturday, go to my web page here. )
Friday morning Adam made a card for me "cordially inviting" me out on an ice-cream date with him that afternoon. We'd wanted to go last week but it didn't work out. He had the day off, which is unusual, so it was a nice surprise. We ran a few errands first, then went to A La Mode (if you live in Wake Forest and haven't been yet, you should go...delicious gelato!). Then, we walked around downtown for a bit. Adam was wonderful while I looked at a consignment shop and tried a shirt on, which he even offered to buy for me. (-:
I decided against the shirt, so we kept walking and saw signs for 'Herb Fest'. I've been really wanting to get a few potted herbs to put in the kitchen so I could have fresh herbs on hand, so we walked down to it. I chose rosemary and thyme. I'm super excited to have started my own little indoor herb garden...hoping it grows soon. I'd love to get some basil, mint, and parsley as well. (Don't I sound so domestic?)
We had some friends over last night, ordered pizza and watched 'The Time Traveler's Wife'...one of our professors recommended it as a chic flick that guys would actually like because of the time travelling part. He was right...Adam and his friend Nathan liked it, and so did Amy and I.
Adam's gone to work today, so I'm going to get a lot of reading done that didn't get done earlier in the week...but he'll be home in time for supper, so I'm going to try making rosemary something, with fresh rosemary!
I know this post wasn't as shocking or controversial as the past few, but hopefully it wasn't too boring. Life and love are keeping me happy right now...God has given us the blessing of a calm period in our lives, but that can change pretty quickly. I'm just thankful for it now and preparing for what's to come.
If you pray for Adam and I, can I give you a couple specifics to pray about?
1. That God will provide the perfect job for Adam starting in the fall of next year, financially and scheduling with school.
2. We are planning to go to Japan for a two week mission trip/vision trip this summer. Pray that it works out, time wise and financially.
Thanks so much for reading my blog!
Love,
Hannah
