Update On Yesterday And Excitement For Today

Ok, so let me start off by saying that yesterday went nothing like I thought it was going to go. I went over to my sister's house, but we ended up not doing anything really except hang out and watch tv because it was raining, and we didn't want to drive 30-45 mins when we have to drive an hour and a half today. So we didn't do anything all afternoon except hang out really.

So then I get ready to go to work and head in and I get a call from work saying that they don't need me today. WHAT??!!?? On the best day for serving you don't need me?? It turns out that they had to many people scheduled and he knew that I wouldn't care if he just asked me not to come in and give me an extra day next week. Which, he was right, it was no big deal.

So after all that, I ended up going back over to my sister's house and we hung out until we went to the grocery store. Our church puts out a cookbook every year and my sister and my brother-in-law wanted to try this mexican recipe out of it. So we went to the grocery store and then came back to the house.

It really wasn't that eventful of a day, but it was nice having just a relaxing day with not much to do.

BUT..........Today we're going NASCAR DRIVING!!!! I'm so excited. Although I hope we get to do it, because it looks like it's going to rain all day. BOO!! But, my mom called me and let me know that we still have to go if we want to be eligible for a make up day. So we're all still going.

OH MY GOSH............by the way........did anyone see on the news how the "tornado" hit downtown Atlanta??? Is that crazy or what. They were showing all these pictures and video from inside the Georgia Dome where parts of the roof blew away and glass and limbs and trees all out in the streets. And that really stinks, because we were going to stop in Atlanta today on the way to the raceway.

But anyway, we've decided that we're going to go to the Mall of Georgia and other stores in Buford and just take our time getting down to the raceway. We don't have to be down there until 2pm but we're leaving at 8am. It's an hour and a half drive so you do the math.....we'll have plenty of time to do whatever.

Oh, and I wanted to mention that when I got home I went over to my friend's apartment down the hall and hung out until like 2am. We had a lot of fun watching Ross the Intern's different blogs (have you ever seen him?? SO FUNNY!!), and watching the live coverage of the downtown Atlanta storms. But I decided by about 2am that I just wasn't going to sleep, because I hate not having enough sleep, or falling asleep and then having to get up shortly after that. So I've been up all night and I'm posting this at 6:45am.

So thanks for reading guys, and I'll keep everybody posted on what else is happening with me.

Live for Him,
Stephen
