HOLIDAYS, Coffee, and friends

This has been a 4 day weekend! YAY for holidays! It has been a really relaxing weekend and I have been rather introspective. I have needed to do lots of cleaning... but that will come in time.
I figured out I get irritated when people assume you are uncomfortable with Valentines day if you are single. I am comfortable with my singleness... yes I would like to be married, but that will come in time (I hope :)). But why would I be uncomfortable with the place God has me at this moment in time... I don't wish for something someone else has... I want my own relationship... that is unique and special. So, for someone to be all ooey gooey with their significant other does not bother me in the least. I am happy for that couple... that they have found their mate. So, that is my soap box for Saturday.
I visited Vaughn Forest Baptist Church on Sunday... it was alright.... but I don't think that is where I need to be. I am leaning towards First Baptist, but still have a couple of churches I want to visit. I have ruled out several... I need someplace where I can plug into ministry... not necessarily student ministry, even though that is my love... I am doing that at the school. I see so many opportunities with the caring center... and from my experiences at College Ave. in FTW, I know I would enjoy vounteering there. Ideally I would be able to help out with the college ministry as well... maybe at some point in the future.
I had coffee with a friend today and just listened to him... I love good coffee and good conversation. The friendship that I have with this person is such a blessing.... He and his wife are a great encouragement to me... and he will probably never know that.
So... I have had a great 4 days of rest.... tomorrow.... it is back to the routine. At least for the next 4 weeks... because then it is time for SPRING BREAK!
