Candy Corn and Races

I don't know why, but I really like candy corn. This is strange, considering it's pure sugar and all I ever buy that's close to being candy is deeply dark chocolate. Like chocolate that has the first ingredient of chocolate, not sugar or anything else. I like the chocolate caramel candy corn that I bought at Target last week "for the Bible study" better...hehe. Someone needs to get the leftovers out of my room because I don't like it sitting there looking yummy all of the time. And I made tapioca for the first time last night. I'm excited, because I had forgotten that I like that stuff, too.

I've been a little bit behind on updating, even though I've thought about it plenty of times. The last fellowship/Bible study went well. The Lord led the time and gave me the words to say...I shared last week on the work God is doing in each of our lives and how to rest and have peace in knowing that. After the fact, I had a hard time not picking out every mistake that I thought I might have made along with what I forgot to say. I tend to do that after every conversation with someone, but thank God, I have gotten better at just trusting that the Holy Spirit will show me my sins...I don't have to go looking for them, in a sense.

I got to see my family over this past weekend. It was fun to drive to El Paso to see my sister Motocross race...she did a good job of riding even when she fell once. Now, I got to see my sister, Allison fly in from CA (she's in the Navy) and I hadn't seen her since last November. That was good to see her and I'll get to see her on Friday before she heads back. It's easier to be around her now that I'm learning not to compare myself to other people, because I always seem to be doing so around her. And now I know I think monster truck rallies are pointless. It's hard to like a sport like motocross racing knowing that there's so much exhaust going everywhere while also wondering if your ear drums are being damaged more and more every time you go to each race. Haha...it was good to get more sleep than usual this weekend...I took some naps.

And Barnes and Noble closes at 7PM on Sundays, just so anyone wants to know if they can go study there at night :P. I should probably get to my books now, come to think of it. I have to say I'm very excited for Vince and Holly and Israel!
