Waiting...

Patiently? Sorta. I'm waiting to hear back about the interview. They said they planned to have an offer in front of someone at the beginning of this week...it's Tuesday!

Don't they know what torture this is for me?

Rejection comes often...but it's so much worse when it's delayed!

In the meantime, I spent the weekend with my friend Jodi and exploring the town. It rained most of the weekend so we only really spent time outside on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon.

Sunday evening, I headed to my cousins just in time to see the 'game' of the century and spend some quality time with them.

And today I was able to catch up with my friend, Amy from seminary. Since I left she's gotten married, moved and had two beautiful little girls. We had a great afternoon catching up. :)

Tomorrow will be my last day here and I'm planning on meeting up with my friend, Joe for dinner. Thursday will be time to hit the road! :) Depending on what I hear or don't hear back about the job, I might stop back in and then I'm planning on making a tiny detour to Columbus. It'll be great to see all my old co-workers and catch up for a bit. And it makes for a great stopping place on the long journey home from here.

So...I'm waiting...and trying desperately to be patient. And to prepare myself if God does not have this in my plan. I wish I hadn't gotten so attached to the area.

In other news - I went to a very large church on Sunday. It has several campuses and they broadcast the pastor from the main campus to each one. But this week, they had a special guest - Christine - (I don't remember her last name) from the Hillsongs Church in Australia!

She had a great message about the church - and how we get so busy 'doing' church that we forget to 'be' the church. But while that sounds so broad and we can say - well - it's not me 'doing' - she really made it personal - down to each one of us - because after all - we are all a part of the church. Kinda wish I were going to be there next week to hear her again.

But oh well - it'll be nice to be back in pcola again and see the rest of my crazy family, check on my aunt who's been ill with pneumonia and pleurisy and catch up with my friends. If I do move - it'll be quick - and it'll be sad to leave them all.
