OH and the week begins

The sun has finally come out. After a whole week of gray, it was nice to see sunshine while I was at work. I had such a rough morning though. I feel they expect me to be able to fix anything, and I'm just not a technician and can't fix complex NMR problems! I was able to talk to Dr. Dee, who works at Scripps, and he was able to help figure out the problem: contamination in the probe head. Praise God that the machine is up and running again and I can do my job. It's going to be a very busy week for sure. We had a pizza party last Friday. One of my co-workers eloped and decided to throw the company a party so that was pretty fun. The boss wants to throw ANOTHER party this Friday just to celebrate for fun. He said this year has been a good year, with marriages, ENGAGEMENTS, pregnancies, and he wants to just celebrate. So, I'm looking forward to the end of the week for another company party! Wahoo!

I have so many things to say about tonight. We had our Melodies worship practice and it was a time where we all got a chance to talk about what we are feeling and where we want the group to go. It's definitely been a roller coaster and a trying time for many of us. I can just see spiritual warfare at work and I just want to be able to conquer it and stand victoriously. Satan loves dissension and he loves to break up anything good. Our sisterhood is so precious to me and I see where the warfare is and I want to do everything I can to stop it. Please pray. I love my sisters so much and I honestly want to continue to serve in the group. Even though there's a lot of unknowns and a lot of trials and tribulations, there is also joy for me and I want to serve them and serve God as well. We're working on songs for the Women's retreat that will HOPEFULLY take place in the fall. I'm also helping Marion and another man I met tonight, Dave, work on a song for the Creative Praise ministry. They will be performing the song in August. It's a great song and Dave has such a powerful voice, I think it's going to awesome.

Had a great time just talking to my sister after I came back home. She's moving.............!!!! So, I am happy for her. I'll definitely miss her, and I'll definitely miss going through her closet for extra clothes and outfits too. =( But, she'll only be a drive away...so at least I can see her anytime I want. I talked to her about the different paths Caleb and I can take in our future, God willing. We talked about the following:
1. Caleb gets out of the Marines in 3 years
2. We can move to Washington DC and he'll get a Master's in Cryptology, which I think is pretty awesome
3. He can apply and we can work at a US Embassy anywhere in the world...which my sister thinks is so awesome

I was also telling her that I wouldn't mind being pregnant if we do try during his B-Billet. BUT, I'm not going to look too far into the future. I just want to get married to him FIRST and foremost. Oh, 2011, can you please come sooner!!! Caleb, I love you and just want to be your wife so bad! =)

Anyway, I'm not teaching tomorrow. Audrey's in Hawaii! How lucky of her! I'm definitely going to go to Hilltop and I'll call my friend Jack and see if she wants to head over with me!
