Adventuring

This week has been kinda crazy with wind and rain for a couple days and random other goings on. So here's a rundown. My parents came to visit over May Long weekend. So good to visit with them. We hiked around in Edworthy Park after work on Sunday, they went to church with me, and we just had a good time getting caught up. On the Monday, some people from my church went hiking in the mountains. Really good day for it. We hiked what I think was the Continental Ridge? Ya. It was a fun day just being outside and it wasn't too cold or wet and rainy until the end of the hike when it started to drip a little. I don't recommend doing said hike in running shoes....We got to slide down the mountain on some snow that was still lingering past the tree line. Super fun and fast. It definitely made going down a lot easier. I biked up to ACAD to see a friend's art show. Her piece was pretty cool. It used ceramics and balloons. There were some other really cool ones. It was interesting to see the different materials the grads used in the pieces and calling it art. One piece incorporated a ladder being suspended by rope and had paint spilled underneath it. Thursday started out as a quiet evening with me watching a movie and Jess watching some TV turned into some friends moving some furniture over and hanging out for a while. We now can comfortably seat 20 people in our house....it's crazy. though we are looking to getting rid of one of the couches. And another friend is taking one of them. So it won't be this way forever...So ya. Friday after work I helped some friends clean their apartment since they are both moving. And came home with a bunch of random food and a plant. :) Good times. And came home to find people at my house. Our house has had so much comings and goings in the last two weeks it's a little crazy but it's good. I like having people around from time to time. Yesterday after work it was so nice outside for a change and so I procrastinated doing laundry and dishes and visited with the neighbors. They are hilarious. The lady is Jamaican and an excellent cook. I couldn't refuse when they offered to feed me supper. Soo good. I didn't even realize how late it had gotten when I got up to leave. She and her husband are a fairly easy-going couple and love having people over. She would probably ahve the whole block over if she could. It was fantastic. After 3 years of living here it's about time I got to know some of the other people on the block....It'll be good. That's what's been going on. Things just keep happening and sometimes I forget to blog about it or it becomes commonplace and what I would deem as not blog worthy...But ya. Life is good. Work is giving me some more hours which is nice. And arranging my schedule so I can still do stuff in the evening with people. And Ultimate Frisbee starts tomorrow! Woohoo. I'm excited. It'll be some good times this summer.Lilac Fest is also on today but I sadly won't be able to go to it due to funny work hours. :( There's always next year...if I'm still in this city that is...we'll see what happens... Happy Sunday. It is good to praise the Lord and make music to your name, O Most High. Proclaiming your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord; I sing for joy at what your hands have done. ~Psalm 92
