Sigh.....weekend passed WAY too quickly. Had a good one though. Really enjoyed myself. Friday night we played board games with some friends. I am a huge board game fan (except for anything requiring bluffing and/or bargaining skills, i.e., monopoly, balderdash, etc.). We attempted to play Trivial Pursuit. I thought that I had bought the "no-brain-surgery-experience-required" version. Evidently I bought the "you-have-to-be-kidding-me/why-would-anyone-know-this-useless-information" version. Needless to say, we made it through only two rounds before figuring it was a waste of time. Then we played Party Pictionary (SO much more fun than traditional Pictionary). It was great. The girls should have won, but, alas the guys cheated.
Saturday I cleaned house and reordered my chaotic world. I am now at peace with the universe again (for the present time.....give Andy a couple of hours). Andy went to the driving range. I have to say that I felt special - he invited me to go along. Too bad that it was 300 degrees outside. I opted out. After we got home, we went to see Pirates of the Caribbean, which I really enjoyed. Hated the ending. I hate cliffhangers. Had the same angry rush that I experienced at the end of the first Lord of the Rings movie. (Same feeling which kept me from going to see the second LOTR in the theater.) I really do like the adventure flick genre though. What's sad is that there are so few made! What happened to Indiana Jones-esque movies anyway?
We went to dinner at McLin's Steakhouse with our "supper club" from church. Andy and I always enjoy trying new restaurants. My steak was awesome, but his seafood was lacking.
After dinner we went to another couple's house and played a game I hadn't played before: Battle of the Sexes. It was fun. Highly recommend it .
Had a good day at church Sunday. Have five people join our church yesterday, which was a good "shot in the arm" of encouragement to our pastor and Andy. We have moved our services from our Sanctuary to our new Family Life Center for the summer (hopefully forever, if we young folks have our druthers) and it has been really nice. Being over there gives our services more of a casual feel, which I love. Now, if we could just move to a casual dress.....one thing at a time! :) But I dress casual already, so I can't complain. I am very thankful for the progress that I am seeing at the church though. When your world revolves around ministry, it feels great to see progress.
Okay, I feel better now.
