  Well, I have rejoined the land of the blog!! I just spent a week up at Elk Lake with Cession and I had no internet or cell phone! I went through withdrawals the first few days, but then I managed ok! Wow. It has been such an incredible week full of so many emotions.
I had such an awesome time with Cession that words can't even begin to describe. We saw God open hearts and break bondages, community developed and faith strengthened. There's a lot to process there and I'm not sure I'll ever fully comprehend it all! Then Friday morning I picked up a rental car and drove down to Detroit for Shelley's wedding. She was radiant and it was an absolutely beautiful day! It was my privilege to be a part of her and Joel's special day. Mom and Dad came up for the wedding and I rode with them back to Columbus. We got back a little after 11 and I just crashed. I told them that I probably wouldn't go to church with them (I didn't) because I desperately needed a full 8 hours of sleep or more since for the past week I had only got 5 or 6 hours a night, which for me is REALLY bad!! It felt sooooo good to sleep in this morning. Well, Mom and Dad have a funky ergonomically correct keyboard and it's taking me a while to type!! Hopefully I can get my laptop hooked up to their internet. Boy do I miss our wireless network...
If I get it hooked up I'll post a couple photo albums from the past week. So keep your eyes posted! I've talked to Ked every day since I left. I think it's the only thing that's kept me sane. Thankfully the past week and a half has gone by quickly for both of us. Only 5 more days until he's here!! I can't wait! I'm back!
