Catching up

You are a Believer

You believe in God and your chosen religion.
Whether you're Christian, Muslim, Jewish, or Hindu..
Your convictions are strong and unwavering.
You think your religion is the one true way, for everyone.
Well, I decided to try this since a couple of my friends from seminary turned out to be agnostic. I pretty much agree with all but the last item. I figure there are many paths...Christianity happens to be the one that works for me.

Been a busy few weeks. Classes are done, as is the last flurry of assignments. I got the appointment that I was hoping for! Two small churches that are very close to home. I've preached there several times (preaching again this Sunday), and the people are great. I'm really looking forward to it. I start July 1.

Eileen and I are headed to NY & DC next Thursday with her school choir. I've never been to NY, so I'm as excited as the kids are. I no sooner get back, and I have to go to Annual Conference. Not gonna make much money in the next few weeks. Good thing the tax refunds just came.

Went to urgent care last night. I've had a backache for about a week, and a trip to the chiropractor on Tuesday didn't alleviate it. I had some other symptoms of a urinary tract infection, so I feared that maybe it was affecting my kidney. The doctor concurred with my diagnosis and gave me some antibiotics and something else that turns my urine bright orange. I know, TMI, but it's just kinda weird. This is my second course of antibiotics in less than a month, so I guess I better start hitting the yogurt hard to return some good bacteria to my system.

Scooter rally this weekend, and tomorrow is my 17th wedding anniversary, so maybe dinner with hubby if he's not worn out from hiking with Boy Scouts, I'm not too wornout from the rally, and I have finished my sermon prep for Sunday!

No summer classes for me unless I do an independent study on the trip to Chicago for the National Clergywomen's Conference. I bought the books for it, but haven't taken time to look at them yet.
