A lot has changed since I last wrote. I am now working in the Linen Department in the store we have in Cañon City. Some new people came and therefore there was some switching around. This has changed my schedule somewhat because I don't leave for work now until 7:30, I still get up at the same time almost every day, it just means that I have more time in the morning. :) I also get home about 10 - 15 minutes earlier. I would get home probably 1/2 an hour or more earlier, but we just started staying open until 5:30pm in Cañon so it's later till we get home too.
Another change was that I moved into a room of my own. I no longer have a roommate, and I'm at the other end of the house. I have never had a room of my own before, and it's kinda fun to have a place to decorate however I want to. :) Obviously I can't dramatically change the room, like paint or anything, because it's not really mine, but it's amazing how much you can change a room just by changing the decorations!
Softball season has started, so we go to the games to cheer for our team at least once a week now. It's kind of fun, I've never been much involved in sports of any kind, but if you know the people on one team and not the other, it can get exciting to see them win. :) So far they've played 3 games and won every time!
I also should let you know about the rodeo. There was one here in Cañon that we all went to and it was interesting to see what it was like. It got a bit long and boring, and there were scary parts when someone would get bucked off, but over all it was interesting, I don't think I would go again though.
Besides what I've told you already life seems basically "normal". I continue to feel like the Lord is teaching me many things. Mainly that I need to grow in love, and become less selfish and more focused on others, which will naturally come about if I love others more. Please continue to pray that I will be able to know what God wants me to do next in His time. I want to be able to recognize His voice and joyfully follow His will, no matter what it is. I could stay out here longer, but it's possible that God has other plans for me right now. I just want to know Him better and be sure to hear the calling He has for my life, and to walk in it.
So, that's the end of this post. I would have more pics, but my camera is broken, I hope I can get it fixed soon. Please feel free to leave any questions or comments! :)
Softball games and rodeos hardly seem like Gill stuff. I would be in the same boat about them. They make for horizon broadening, though, so good for you. Keep finding new ways to learn.
ReplyDeletesounds like your having a good time, i was in NC for just a little while and saw two softball games (i can't hit a ball to save my life :. so whats wrong w/ the camera?
ReplyDeleteYeah it's fun having your own room, like you said, a person can decorate with anything they want to and not have to worry about it... Even if they decide to use a gross old turtle shell... :)
