Hello all my dear friends! Well today is our day 'off' and we have been packing and trying to sell the furniture that we have had here in storage for so long in Scotland. our team only has one week left of Outreach and it's all been going well. Tomorrow we are leading a whole Sunday service in Dundee. Should be good. Then this week is full of stuff like going to the prison, youth work, skatepark, we're putting on a mini-concert at the Skatepark...good times good times..
and meanwhile me and mike while doing all of that, will still be trying to sell all our worldly possessions. not really. but mostly. So it's time to really say goodbye to my beautiful ikea bed. it's so great. So just pray that all of our furniture sells quickly and for as much money as we can get so that when we get back to canada we have money to spend on the same furniture again and all of the other stuff you need, like pots and pans and blah blah..all that stuff.
But it's nice to be back in Arbroath, with the coast and the Cliffs and the small town feel. I really like it. so one week left of ministry, one week and hopefully our stuff sells quickly and then me and mike have another nine days to make sure our stuff is sold and packed and to visit our friends Rodney and Eva who just had a baby girl on Valentines day!!! congrats to them..
well that's what's going on in our life right now.....i have to get back to work.

scotland and being pregnant
hello all! well, i haven't updated you on anything and it seems that emailing and using computers isn't as frequent as i thought it would be. So for now i'll do a quick update. Right now we are in Scotland, near Glasgow and will soon be moving to Dundee, ( on the east coast) . We only have about 2 1/2 weeks left with our team.
Traveling in Morocco was good for the team. We got to see some of Morocco and do lots of different 'things' you know?? Personally it wasn't that great being in my frist trimester in morocco, food wasn't something i could just pick what i wanted or go to the grocery store and get what tasted good, so threw up more and more towards the end of the trip. Traveling made me feel even worse and i think next time i find out i'm pregnant i'll stay closer to home...or just stay home. But now that we are in Scotland , it's much better, Ginger ale is available most places and i can drive to the store to get any food i want. so that's better. Our team is doing great. They are getting to go into schools, youth groups, work with a youth doing Evangelism, open airs, soon we will be going into prisons..all kinds of cool opportunities that God has given us.
And so i think we are all enjoying it. i feel quite emotional sometimes which isn't very fun for anyone, but today me and mike are enjoying a much needed day off, and we really don't have any responsibilities at all today, it's great! So, we have no plans, maybe a movie, but nothing definite.
I turned 26 last weekened. and it's weird to think that by the time i'm 27 i will have a baby. Well, that's about all for now...i'm really looking forward to getting back to vancouver, having a bit of normalacy in my life, finding a place to live, having some more friends around, i want to start swimming, you know...just have a life really. so that's it for now.........
