Carried

Beautiful Lord, Wonderful Saviour
I know for sure, all of my days are held in your hands, crafted into
your perfect plan
You gently call me into your presence guiding me by Your Holy Spirit
Teach me dear Lord to live all of my life
through Your eyes
I'm captured by Your holy calling
Set me apart, I know you're drawing me to yourself
Lead me Lord I pray
Take me, Mould me, use me, fill me
I give my life to the Potter's hand
Call me, guide me, lead me, walk beside me
I give my life to the Potter's hand

Otago Anniversary Day today. The best part of it is that i get a day off work! It's 8.18am and i'm still in my pjs, half propped up on the tripillow with my legs under the covers. finally catching up on all the emails i need to reply and junk mail i need to delete. Paul has left for classes and Kevin's left for work. I'm not sure if Nad's awake yet but i'm pretty sure Chia's still sleeping.

J's blog always amuses me. And he uses short simple sentences :) I am amazed at the ideas that people get to write in their blogs. They can turn the simplest, most mundane things to become so interesting. It's like living in the moment. A moment that lasts just a few minutes of seconds even and yet able to extract the experience and put it into words without sounding too lo-so. I've always wanted to be able to write like that.

It's now 8.32am. I've got my day planned:
0900-1000 prepare lunch for the two boys and tidy P's room
1000-1100 go for a run
1100-1200 off to Med library to work on my homework
1200-1300 lunch with the boys
1300-1400 decide what to cook for dinner and prepare
1400-1600 type letter for bond tenancy, update learning portfolio, draw up table for medico pack Px
1615-1645 meeting with Uncle at church
1645-1745 cook dinner
1800 Cecilia and husband come over for dinner
1900++ rest and worship

It was then that i carried you.

piercing anyone?

Daniel asked me on the phone just now,"So what have you been up to?" and i replied,"Hmm..work?" It feels as though one week links onto the other and next thing i know, it's another Monday. I'm working this Saturday so it'll be Sunday off and then it's Monday again. And guess what?!? This Sunday, which also happens to be when daylight savings ends (Woohooooo!), marks working at Knox for 3 months. :)

I've really nice colleagues, both in the dispensary and the shop. Praise God! And a big thank to Scott and Sherif, Cecilia, Tae-Hoon, Katrina and Karen. And speaking of shop, Jason came in to teach Katrina and i how to do ear piercing today. We were shown 2 types of guns (GUNS!! Hee..) and decided on which one we wanted to stick to. The first and older gun was quite daunting, with that staple-like bang as the earring is fired through the lobe/cartilage. I had a go with it, and twice, not just once but TWICE, i missed the mark by about 2mm. and 2mm is a huge distance when it comes to ear piercing. I honestly thought to myself "I feel sorry for my first ear-piercing customer." Then came STUDEX75. The current and future of ear-piercing. No bang, no need to aim, fully loaded, fiddle-free. And since there are 2 guns, Kat and i can get two ears done at the same time! :D But still, i dont think i'll exactly jump at the first customer who asks to get ear-piercing done. I'll let you know when the lucky Number One comes along...

I'm tired. I havent talked to you for a while.
