Wide Eyed & Bushy Tailed
twitter.com/valaroo ...why not, right?
I was so excited to go to NewLife with Nate & Rachel last night. It was the first night of their Team Jesus series; we joined a small group in Poulsbo on Wednesday nights. That's some serious answered prayer. When I can't make church, because of weddings, I can definitely make small group. And I've really been itching to meet some new people in the Kitsap area. Yay God! Something that caught my attention. Pastor Wes said "You are an example of grace, so share your story." I've always felt like there's a line you have to cross, or a right of passage to go through before you're ready to start sharing what God's doing in your life. Huh, I was wrong. That's awesome. It reminds me of Becca Horton. She always used to say "God's rockin' in my life right now" when people asked how she was. Can I get an amen?
I bought a digital camera on ebay this weekend. My little Sony Cybershot died about 2 months ago. And I never thought it would be so difficult for me to live without one. It is. I've paid up. I hope she ships it out today.
The man in the office next store is...screaming? Hmmm.

We sit secure in time-honored traditions made
Never wondering where or when the sickle may come
If we don’t seek out knowledge to be greater men
When the rain starts falling gonna drown before we get our feet wet
We build our ivory towers to protect us from the flood
A fleet of vessels made of wood so they won’t rust
But can we see the bottom of the bottle when we start to drink
There’s fire on the mountain fire and it’s coming our way
Can we pick the pieces up
We’re mending Babylon
Tryin’ to right the wrong
Can we pick the pieces up
Live Learn Life Love Die Dust Gone
There’s fire on the mountain
Can we pick the pieces up
We’re mending Babylon
Tryin’ to right the wrong
Can we pick the pieces up
Live Learn Life Love Die Dust Gone

Walking to my office from my Sunday Market post this morning there was a ruckus in The Bowl. Birds. I took a closer look and saw a crow beating up on a tiny swallow. He killed it. I watched. Just what I wanted to start my day with.
I don't have all the answers. And I don't claim to. But I can't just stand back and watch the carnage.

You have seen what I did to the Egyptians. You know how I brought you to myself and carried you on eagle's wings. Now if you will obey me and keep my covenant, you will be my own special treasure from among all the nations of the earth; for all the earth belongs to me. Exodus 19:4&5
Maybe Poulsbo isn't so bad after all.

Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised. Psalm 31:30
The sun finally came out. And it makes me a happy girl. I got to sleep in, go to the gym, and stop at a coffee shop this morning. That's my all time favorite routine. After that I drove out to the Kingston Cemetery again. I scoured the entire property and can't find Grandpa. My dad, his youngest son, made his headstone. Can't find it. I'll keep going back until I do.
Stimulus check is in the bank! :) Money for Cabo and a new chariot.
