Still Going!

Hello again everyone :). An update two days in a row? I know - crazy isn't it?

Yesterday I had the privilege of going with five of my campers as a leader on the Adventure Experience canoe trip. Adventure Experience is a new program to give the kids at camp a new activity option and is a way to promote our various Adventure Trips. At registration the parents sign up their child to leave camp property for an afternoon to canoe down Pine river (an oxbow [a large loop that starts and ends very near each other] about 20-30 minutes from here). I had an absolute blast, even though we were 45 minutes late getting back to camp (because of low water and some steering challenged campers). We had to get out and pull the canoes over rock beds about 6 or 7 times because the water was so low, but my two g i r l s didn't have any problem with that and neither did I because it made for the best parts of the trip :). That's when the most splashing, laughing and lost flip flop diving happened :).

I'm still going and fairly healthy (considering). I'm grateful for that and know that it's only by God's grace if I make it through the next week and a half without really getting sick (allergies don't really count...).

Prayer Request Addition:
- That I'd be able to sleep through the night. I only have about seven hours max. to sleep most nights, but don't usually get to take advantage of all of it because I loose so much time waiting to fall asleep and then I wake up at least four times. If I could sleep straight through I'd feel so much more rested when I got up in the morning. So prayers that I would be blessed with that sleep, or if not, that God would give me a good attitude about it and the strength and energy that I don't have.
