I am so tired today. I have had 3 nights of not enough sleep.I worked for two nights and one long 12 hr day in Maple Creek....2 hrs away. This morning, I was off at 0700 so I drove home just to go straight into the office here. I also had no calls in Maple Creek!! NONE!! Its supposedly busy there! But every time I go there I get NOTHING. lol
Anyway my time in Maple Creek was alright...it was quite boring, and since I was staying right in the hospital and I don't know anyone there I spent lots of time reading a book and my bible. It ended up being really neat, God connected to me while I was there....in solitude...bored out of my tree...
So I started reading this really cool book called A New Kind of Normal by Carol Kent. It is sooo good.....everyone should read it!
Some quotes from the book that really touched me:
"My new normal means being still scarred by sin but not devastated by it."
"My new normal is not being afraid to share about the pain in my past, because God has given me peace in my present."
After reading over half the book in one day...I decided to watch a movie last night called Fireproof. Wow....no one told me I would need a whole box of kleenex....my eyes are still sore today! It is such a good movie....and I normally hate sad movies...but it has a really powerful message, not to mention hot firefighters, lol! I hardly slept last night after watching it. It is so good, I recommend it.
This is random..but I saw a moose on the side of the highway today ALIVE, so I took some pics....it was really cool to see a moose up close :) and I hit a gopher with my car! hee hee
