Despite the fact that when I really felt the sun I was in Eastern Oregon.
I have not blogged as much as I planned.
I think I figured that since working in front of computers is my major, I have kind of been anti-computer except for when I can't sleep.
I have been working with the City Parks and Recreation as a lifeguard.
It has been interesting. I have been audited and I passed.
It is when they throw the dummy baby [named Annie or Timmy] into the water and I have to rescue it. The last time I was audited, it was strange because that morning I totally thought I was going to get audited that morning... and low and behold, I was very well audited.
I worked some grad parties, so shifts like from 11pm to 3am. Ridiculous.
And I am not going to go much more into those...
But except one with events that surround the grad party that just seem so [I don't know a word]
So VCHS my Alma Matter has graduation.
I know pretty much everyone who is graduating.
I am excited for them. More than I was when I was graduating.
One of my friends, Daniel came because he knew Katey.
It was fun because I didn't have to sit 'alone.'
I wouldn't of sit alone really, I know people but I don't really know them...catch my drift?
Well I was happy to share my joy with Daniel and others I know that didn't go to VC to experience some of God's amazing power and grace at that school while celebrating Katey's graduation and several other friends.
After VC's grad, I had time to kill before I worked a grad party.
Daniel happened to be working a grad party as well but at a pool down the road.
Times a wasted or well spent and I wasn't run over by a car and I go to Katey's to kill time.r
I get some awesome honey mustard on my Winco bought sandwich thanks to Justin.
Grad party is pretty decent. A grad brought us a whole pizza.
Kids came and had fun. At one point no one was in the pool.
After the party I begin to head home.
I am on forth plain and Ft Vancouver Rd.
I thought about heading to Marshall to see Daniel or help with maintenance..
or something. Something was telling me to go to Marshall...but I didn't think I should.
So I head on to the free way and the 1-5 Bridge is up.
There is no traffic, but I get off onto Mill Plain anyways cus thats easier to get to 14 when the bridge is up when other cars are on the free way.
I am presented with the opportunity to go to Marshall again.
I go. I get into Marshall and into the pool and just chill.
When the boys come out of the bathroom from cleaning it, I'm just there on the deck.
They are like "What are you doing here??" I just tell them not to ask and that I am just there...
and that I didn't really know why [which I find later that I believe that God was leading me to go there for specific reasons]. Daniel is there and seems tired. Obviously its like 4 am..
I had the brilliant idea to go visit David at Homewood Suits where he works and where I use to live like 7 years ago. So we go!
It was pretty sweet. I had some energy or something. Daniel asked how I had energy [ I was skipping around] and I said I really don't. I think thats what I do when I am exhausted.
We go in and see David! It was brilliant. Daniel stayed for like 20 minutes and then left. We had good conversations. I stayed about another hour just talking with David about the bible and my mom [ who is in Japan until September] and just many things about life.
I stayed until 5am. All this is a brilliant memory I love. And the next day [or the same day] I wake up at 9 and go to church to work with second Saturday and we got to go to a camp - Royal Ridges. I helped with framing as much as I could. I had never done that before.
At 430 am I had this amazing creation thanks to David and Homewood Suites:
Memories are a brilliant thing.
I know Christ was leading and working that evening and morning.
I didn't share everything, but a good part of it and I know that where I was that morning was exactly where I was suppose to be.
I hope you can share in the joy that I find in this memory.
