The Order Is In…

After work yesterday I stopped by Daily Mass on my way home and got some really good hugs during the “sign of peace” exchange. I’ve been needing them because I have been worrying about stuff that I have no control over, stuff that I have been praying about, things that I should just be lifting up, but it’s alot harder than it sounds, to let go and let God. After Mass lets out me and Brian go to pick up one of his friends from way back in the day, Brandi, to take her out for her 23rd birthday. We end up at Hoote… no wait Outback, hehe. It was good times, excellent food and even better conversation. She has also offered to help me find some work here in Lubbock, how awesome is that? Anyways, me and Brian split the tab since I have some “out on the town” appreciation for hard work at the BA reimbursement thing for up to $35, so I just need to remember to take the reciept into work on Monday. After dinner we headed up to The Rock, and had a great time as always, Tricia gave a great talk about observation and reaching out to others to make them feel welcome and loved, it was some good stuff, made me realize some things that I need to work on to help others. I got to trade nametags with Melanie at The Rock this time, I can’t wait to pray for her over this whole next week, I LOVE that girl to death, she truly is an amazing woman of God. After The Rock was over it was GAME TIME! The CSA Devils had a flag football game at 11pm and we had a surprisingly large turnout of fan support, it was really great. We didn’t do so well, a few bad plays, a few bad calls, the usual. Regardless, I still enjoy playing whether it be a win or a loss. We were also all on our best behavior so that we will be eligible to make it to the playoffs. So after going to Daily Mass this morning at 6:55am, I decided that I needed a day off of work so I emailed the boss, who is super awesomely understanding and was cool with it. I then proceeded to go back to sleep and didn’t wake up ’til just 15 mins ago, just before 1pm. Ahhh, not gonna be able to do that once I get myself a real job, so I better enjoy this while it lasts. Once I woke up I called Jo-Dee’s T’s and Caps and found out that I will be able to pick up our Intramural T-shirt order today in time to take it with me to the staff retreat to give out to those who got shirts, which luckily for me, is a good chunk of those staffing RA. Ok, tonight is Staff Retreat at 5pm with free pizza, so I hope to see some of yall there and may God Bless you all! Have a great and safe weekend!
