Making things with yarn, words, and time.
This week for the paper, I covered the SGA Senate meeting. I'm not pleased with how I did. I forgot some important questions and didn't do a good job of managing my time over the weekend.
Still, I am not totally displeased with the weekend. I got some cleaning done, and I got a small amount of much-needed rest.
My lip has broken out again.
I asked my mom to teach me how to crochet. She showed me the basic stitch this afternoon. I've already done about four rows, and I'm liking it more than knitting, which I started to learn a while back, but I don't know what I've done four rows on. It may be a doll blanket. It may be a cape. Who knows? We'll find out when I finish, or when I've done more on it, I guess.
Tonight, my church had a healing service. I went, and some of my church family prayed over me. I want to be more faithful, to be peaceful and unworried. I need to do a better job of taking care of myself, walking and sleeping more. I'm down to 180, which is a healthy weight for me. With exercise, though, I'm probably going to need to eat more often. Please pray for me, that I don't pick up the burdens I've laid at Jesus' feet.
Please pray also that I make some new local friends. I love my online friends dearly, but with the distance, it's just not the same. A man needs people to do things with.
Part of why I haven't been on LJ much is that I've been out of the house doing things. I just wish I could be doing things with friends and not just people who are only "people from school" to me. It would be nice to do things other than homework, too.
Speaking of homework, it looks like I'm going to have to end my Sunday early. Because I spent Friday and Saturday doing news and such instead of what I should normally be doing on Friday and Saturday, I need to get some reading done for tomorrow's early class, and I won't have time in the morning. :(
Oh, well. Have a great week, everyone!
