Already.. tomorrow is seeming to become more packed as the minutes go by... I had a "coffee/talk date" scheduled with Angela from church.. but i had
to reschedule that for Thursday, because my sister needs my help finding her interview location.. which i know because i used to work there and i'm the one who referred her..
so i have to help get her there by 10am tomorrow..

I also will be going with her on her college visit.. which.. can you believe it.. we live right NEXT DOOR to the college.. so she can really just walk right next door ;p

:) It just feels like God has this plan and all the puzzle pieces are just fitting.. and here i stand.. just watching.. just helping it to happen.. but it just IS..?  :)

 (ugh... i really would love to go to London now.. i need to travel.. )....

Today:

This morning my mother was a little upset at me because I wasn't willing to buy her cigarettes.. no i'm NOT.. i wouldn't buy cigarettes for anyone..
Plus.. i think sometimes when i say i'm going to give her something as a gift.. she'll ask for something bigger or something on top of it.. like because i said i'd buy her a pack of
bus tokens.. so she can explore and get used to the city.. she thought i'd buy her cigarettes etc.. no can do..
So, i stood my ground.. ;p

Okay, so I went on the college visit with my sister and she is so pumped.. they are giving her multiple scholarships.. and she really won't have a big bill at all! Now she'll be living right next door ... seriously.. we our neighbors of the private university... and i'm thrilled for her.. i really am..

She did not get the job.. that is sad.. but she has applied to several other awesome places.. so i'm sure she will get a call very soon.

In the middle of all this chaos.. i've decided to go to school part-time this summer.. and then full-time from then on.. starting in the fall.. 2012 semester.. : )

This morning I woke up to my mother calling and asking for an umbrella.. i guess she was waiting on the bus.. and wanted to stop by.. and i only have my one pink umbrella.. i told her no... because I was going to be leaving to go have coffee and talk with Angela from church.. and so i said no etc and then i hang up. However, over the next 15 minutes following hanging up i got to thinking.. how selfish.. my mother is outside in the rain.. so i jumped out of bed and gave her a ride.. downtown.. and i know i must have bounderies.. but i at the same time have to show love and compassion right? That is a retorical question.. : ) I know that i do..

Anyway, I had a great time at the coffee shop... talked for about 2 hours.. and then she had to leave for work.. and i do to here very shortly.. we talked about many things.. but mostly just Bible Study... about sharing the gospel.. about many things.. our mom's have some similar characteristics.. so she at least understands what i mean... and that's nice.. anyway.. she is also going to be my new hairdresser.. i knew that she was a hairdresser.. but i wanted to ask her if she would be.. since at least then it'll be money more well spent.. where instead of the hairdresser talking about drinking.. partying.. etc.. i can stay focused on more Christ-like talk..  so yeah now i have scheduled myself for Saturday.. :)  (Keep in mind I have brought up church to my previous hairdresser.. this is just something i feel God has lead me to do.. to surround myself with more people that are focused on HIM).

I found out that Friday.. (tomorrow) man this week is going FAST... I will go straight from work to some youth shelter.. where we will hang out, talk, have a pizza party etc.. with some youth in the community.. maybe share the gospel... : )
