Late night

I promised to write a blog on my post graduation life after my graduation ceremony, so here it is! Nothing has really changed.... there, that says about everything. I'm still waiting to see what God has in store for me. I was hoping to get an intership at a church, as many of you know, but that doesn't seem to be too likely. I don't think any of that waiting was wasted time though. I felt pretty strongly that God didn't want me looking for other jobs other than the intership, so he has something in mind (of that I have no doubt), if nothing else but to save me from a horrible job. :-) My dad di offer to let me work for him this summer ( he seemed rather pleased at that prospect). Whatever happens, I'm not worried but that doesn't mean I'll relax and do nothing if I have the chance. I still plan on looking for jobs, even if it isn't even close to my major. Right now, I'll just keep as many doors open as possible and see which ones close.

This week has been a little hectic. I've been taking a course called "Wilderness Ministries that has quite a bit more qork than I planned. Fortunately I'm learning a lot and am a lot more confident and competent to go on a self planned trip. Other than the class, I've been helping my dad some - not as much as I think he would want, but I'll try to do better as soon as this class is finished. In fact, I just drove home today from a craft show near Pittsburg. The rest of the McConnell's are at the show, but since I'm leaving in 7 hours for the canoeing trip for "Wilderness Ministries" I got to come home and work on more schoolwork. I would probably be finished by now, except that we sold another black puppy!

This post is starting to wander a bit... I'll try to pull it back into a coherent mass. What has been hapening outside of my normal activities? Very little. I haven't gotten to read anything extraneous this week, I haven't gotten to play war with anyone, but I did get the chance to play with grass. I found out that it is almost impossible to whistle with grass if I have a ring on my thumb finger. During dinners, I've been watching a "Murder She Wrote" mystery, and I went and saw Star Wars III today. I'm starting to regret that decision. I would have been just as happy watching it one or two weeks from now when I wasn't so busy. Oh well, live and learn!

With all of this activity going on, I still seem to be staying is a good mood, although my answers to questions people ask have been one word answers recently. (I'm not being a good conversationalist.) Two more side notes. 1) I've been enjoying peoples blogs, and 2) my spell checker isn't workings so I apologize for the incovenience of bad spelling here. Now you get a chance to see how I really spell when I don't think it matters.
