30 Hour Famine, etc.
It surprises me when people don't believe me when I tell them that me, fasting, is not a good idea. Once I skip that second meal, I get irritable and downright mean, and then there's yelling. Thus, while I'm helping out with the youth group here doing the 30 hour famine, I'm not actually participating. Because it would be bad- these are impressionable high school students. Anyways, I just did a Bible study on Matthew 25 and 28 with them- about different approaches to Christianity, and why 25 feels safer than 28 to us, and stuff. Now I need to figure out another one for their "spiritual dinner" at four. Not to mention organizing my presentation on the culture ELCA social statement for tomorrow. And of course the usual prayers, children's sermon and Words on Worship for tomorrow morning.
In other news, I've started journaling again- in longhand- and it really does seem to help with the stress levels. There are things going on here (at my site) which are confidential and troublesome, which sucks, and which, presumably, I should get used to. Well, am used to, to an extent (thank you college). Nothing to do with me, though there will be indirect effects on my life. But journaling helps.
I also bought a Nintendo DS Lite the other day- I'd been saving for a few months. So. Very. Worth it. :)
Happy Saturday!
