Today was a pretty fun day. Jonathan and I woke up around 6:00 this morning and we prepared some stuff for after work. Jonathan had to be at work by 7:30 so we had a pretty early morning. After he left for work I ended up sleeping for another hour before I got up for good. I had to run the shop today at work all by myself all day. I ended up getting to the shop at 9:30 this mornign though just to make sure I got some stuff done before opening. It turns out that Andy and Jen were still there grabbing a few last minute things before they went on there trip. I talked to them for about 20 minutes before they headed out. The day started out kind of slow, but after the first hour it ended up being fairly busy. I didn't really get as much stuff done as I would have liked today. There were some points where I had two customers and two people on the phone on hold. That was pretty rough. But I was able to close down shop today at 2:30. That was nice, I had quite a few things I needed to do today before Thanksgiving tomorrow. Jonathan and I also had some plans to cook Brittany and Allie dinner tonight. After I got all my errands done I then met up with Jonathan and we went over to Scott's house and finished up preparations for dinner. We ended up cooking Roast Beef & Potatoes with cooked carrots. Then we also had corn as well. We had dinner rolls all setup and ready to go too but I ended up forgeting to warm those up. I was kind of upset about that.. it would have made it perfect. The girls really seemed to enjoy the evening though. We also ended up having fudgecicles for dessert. Both Jon and I had a great time serving them tonight. We ended up finishing eating earlier then I expected, so we just kind of hung out and relaxed and listend to some Evanesance there in the apartment for awhile. Then we all headed over to church for the evening service. Pastor John talked a little bit about some of his exeriences with serving and providing for needs of others. And then after the short study with that we all gathered together and made about 240 Turkey sandwiches which we plan to hand out to people at the bus stations tomorrow night around 5:00 as a way to provide for thier needs and share the love of christ to them. I helped make about half of them.. but then I needed to stop and go do some Drama practice with a few people. Over all it was a pretty good evening at church. Jonathan has only been a few times so far but I think he enjoyed himself too. After church I just headed over to the Donnebergs for the rest of the evening and thats where I am at right now actually. I did have to make a quick run to Scott's again to let the dog out one more time before tomorrow... but I came back here and I will stay the night. After everybody went to bed I snuck upstairs and put my thanksgiving gifts I made for all of them on the table so they would see them in the morning. Everybody has gone to bed about 45 minutes ago or so.. I had to come down and make sure I wrote down all the events of today though. It was a good day to remember. I actually was about to go to bed before midnight.. but I had to stay up just long enough so when I post this it would show up under tomorrows date (I have to keep it consistent). But that midnight has come so I am off to bed! Good night! And I hope you all have a great turkey Day!
