The last 6 weeks have been a different thing than they would have been at UGA. But they've still been exhausting. There's something about "new" that has worn me out more than what has been "known." And there's something that makes you tired in your bones about living in between!!
If you're not an introvert, that probably makes NO sense to you. But I can remember walking into Moe's a couple of weeks ago so relieved that I actually KNEW the people I was meeting for dinner because a lot of life has been meeting new people. Walked into another Moe's this week to meet a couple and all I could say was "bless you, facebook" because at least I could recognize them when they came through the door.
Last night was sandwiched between a great two hour dinner date with some folks I loved that I think will be great partners in ministry and tonight which is my second time to hang out with ASU students. So, I passed up the opportunity to go to a movie with my landlord/friends and enjoyed an evening of creating.
NOTHING is more relaxing in my book than a little creativity ... so, I went for a run (and after I got over the snake that was at the canal with me), came home and made some of these ...
and then I did some of this ...
and I read and I blogged and I enjoyed the re-creating happening in me as I created. I think that's part of being made in the image of our Creator God! And I am a happier girl today, ready to take on a bunch of new ASU students and hear their heart for BCM!
