More Adventures

Well this week had some adventures... I've had 3 interviews, but yet to get a job. I did get offered one though, but I would be taking a serious pay cut to what I was before, and I'm just not sure if it's what I want to be doing. I've gotta do some praying. And perhaps while I'm waiting, I'll get some more interviews. That would be nice. Because I'm getting very tired of sitting around here.

Church last Sunday was nice, I don't know how many of you were at Burnett when Bruce Christiansen was the pastor (I wasn't, but J was), but now he is the pastor at a church up here in Kamloops. We went there, and it was really cool to see him and J reconnect. I did get kinda sad though, because he talked a lot about Pitt Meadows during his sermon (He'd just been there the week before)

I recently got hit pretty hard with homesickness. It comes and goes, but when it comes it's awful. I've been here almost 3 weeks, and I know it takes a while to really connect with people, but I guess sometimes I just feel so lonely! I really hope I make some good friends before J goes back to do more school in September. I don't know how I'd handle this if he weren't here.

That being said, we have been connecting with people... We went to the Sunday night young adults group, and then a young marrieds bible study (They want to do iMarriage in the fall, I'd love to finish that!) and today I even ventured out all by myself. I went to a Young Adults group at an Alliance church. J was at a seminar for work, so I just decided I'd go check it out. I'm glad I did, the people there seem really nice! I'll be going again.

I've been running lately... almost every day actually. Haven't seen any physical results, but boy do I feel good! I drink lots of water now too (partly because it's so bloody hot and dry up here, partly because I know it's good for me! Oh and partly because my Brita water filter makes it taste much better) I am working on my endurance... J and I have talked a bit about adventure racing. It's kinda like a triathalon, only more 'adventurous'... Basically they give you a map with checkpoints on it and it's up to you to figure out how you're going to get to them. The race involves hiking, mountain biking, and paddling. There's one here in Kamloops in September and Valhalla Pure is hosting clinics to train for it. I'll keep you posted if we decide to enter.

Anyways, I guess I should head off to bed, as I have lots to do tomorrow. We're going camping tomorrow in Lytton with J's sister and her husband, along with a bunch of friends. It's gonna be awesome to see them! And then on Monday my mom, Lydia, and Justin are going to stop in for lunch on their way home from May Camp! A weekend of visits! So exciting!
