My Eventful Weekend

Good Monday Morning!

Friday night Damon took me out to Sonic then we went to visit Bradley in the hospital. He looks GREAT! All he needs to do now is wake up! Keep the prayers going up! He should be going home within two weeks, his Uncle Rick strongly believes Bradley will wake up before then. But, Rick is open to whatever God has in store!

Before I get into what we did Saturday...I will say, I have felt like God hasn't been answering my prayers lately. I made a little prayer request that we would have enough money to go to this even on Saturday. Not only did we have enough, we had EXTRA! The event...drag racing! It's not like a big race you see on TV...nothin like that. This is a straight drag strip with cars in different classes competing for the fastest time. The reason we went is because Damon's Uncle owns a car and his cousin races it. He took 3rd in his class. We only stayed for qualifiers on Saturday, the Races for placing were Sunday, but we wanted to get home for church. Keith races a 69' Superbee, in the last qualifier we saw he ran a 12.08 at 112 mph I think. AWESOME. And Gracie...I was the Lobster this weekend. I brought sun screen, but I really didn't want to put it on to early because I wanted to get some sun. Well, much to my dismay the bleachers were covered, all shade. Somehow though, from car to bleachers, to car show and back I got sun, A LOT of sun. I was RED! Today it has calmed down a lot and I look much better. Back to the weekend. There were sooo many cars! I was very impressed with the atmosphere though, sometimes those things can be kind of bad, which governs when and where I go, but this one was very clean. I was pretty impressed! And, I got me a funnel cake......mmmmmmm and Chili Cheese fries....more mmmmmmm! I know, not diet food, but it was goood! After the races we went out to eat at O'Charleys....those rolls, they kill me they are so good! I got dessert that was AMAZING, don't remember what it was though. Some caramel chunk thing in ice cream. It was sooo good! I couldn't finish half though, I was so full! It was about 9pm, so we headed home.

Sunday, went to church, GREAT service. The Lord was very present. Then we went to Big Apple Chinese Buffet, YUMMY! Lo-Mein rocks! Oh and they had these coconut shrimp...yikes, never had those like that, they were soooo good! I had seconds of those! I wish I could cook chinese stuff! Then we went home and I don't know but we must have been tired, we didn't wake up till 4:40! Church starts at 5! Yeah...we were late! After Service about 20 of us went to Cracker Barrel for dessert. Crystal was unusually talkative, was kind of weird but cool! Never seen her interact so much! We are going to go hiking, I told her to be nicer to me than Megan though. Meg I saw the pictures...you poor thing! Anyway, I had some apple dumpling thing. I didn't eat it all, but it was GOOOOOOD! Only problem was we had to wait an hour for our food! GRRRR

Well that was my weekend, pray for me, I woke up really tired this morning. I have a headache and I don't want to go to my second job. I don't know how some people do it, other than not having a choice. Maybe it's cus I am a girl and not meant to be the bread winner,maybe it's cus I'm lazy, I don't know, but I am finding this second job thing VERY VERY hard.
