The Far Side of the Ocean

"If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the ocean, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast." - Psalm 139:9-10

7 Random Things

So Nikki tagged me for seven random things about myself. The problem with this is that I’m never quite sure what I’ve already revealed on this blog in the past, so with apologies for any redundancies, here we go:

  1. I can’t sleep with any light in the room. I will flip the blinds to the “up” position to counteract this. I’ve been known to put blankets under hotel door cracks to block the hall lights, shove glowing clock faces against the wall, and once persuaded a friend to put band-aids over a particularly bright smoke detector.

  2. As a child, I hated long nightgowns. They would get all tangled around my legs at night and I would feel trapped. Still avoid them.

  3. I want to do the Wild Cave Tour at Mammoth some day.

  4. My last two weekends have been pretty terrific.

  5. I’m going to Australia for a two-week mission trip in September and can hardly wait.

  6. I have a hard time hanging things on my wall. This is probably due to moving more than 30 times throughout my life. I just have a feeling if I put something up there I am going to move soon. I’m a UCD – Under Confident Decorator.

  7. Not random, but … I serve a totally awesome God.

I'm with you on the light thing. And I can't believe it's that close to Australia time! Anyone you know going with you? ;) Are you close on $$ or do you have it all taken care of?
Okay, enough Spanish inquisition.;)heh

Jules-
I'm going to work with some missionary friends in Brisbane, so while I'll be meeting up with them there, I'll be flying by myself. And yes, I've got all my support in, thank the Lord!
