Drinking Lattes & Packing Boxes

Fortunately, almost a month has past since I had to call for emergency backup. However, that doesn't mean my past 3 weeks have been uneventful.

1. I'm done at the coffee shop and even went in to get my last paycheck today (as well as an iced van/haz latte). My boss A wanted to get me on the schedule for the first week of August, but...

2. We are moving next weekend. That means that my family and I have been packing. It also means that we (meaning, my parents) found a house. It's a Sears house, an old house, but not old enough that I will be up until 4 in the morning looking for ghosts.

3. My mom and I took a 3-day trip to Chicago to visit relatives (and managed to sneak in a little shopping).

4. I am all set for college, and have been cooking more and more lately to prepare (or use as therapy, I can never tell). It was advised that I order my books after the first day of each class, so that is an uncompleted task.

5. I've been writing. I haven't been gotten very far, but I am now at 115,319 words.

I'd also like to make a special request of you. Yes, you, reading this now. My family and I used to be friends with another family at our church. They ended up switching churches, so we haven't seen them in a long time. A few years ago, they found out their son had lymphoma cancer. He's a little older than me.

Yesterday, we got an email prayer request saying that he's waiting for the Lord to call him Home. I did a little research, and found out that he has 2 weeks max.

He's always someone I've really looked up to, and envied, because he could make a whole room of people laugh.

I believe in miracles. Do you? You don't have to know his name, but the Lord will know exactly who you mean in your prayer.

Thanks
