Ah...

One last indulgence before I go back to camp: watching Pride and Prejudice. I don't know how many times I have seen this movie... or the five hour BBC version with Colin Firth... or read the book. But it never ceases to make me smile and give me little jitters inside. I know that Elizabeth Bennett is a character that everyone says is like herself, but I definitely see it true of me. Not that it really matters, but it is fun to have a connection to someone in a story; it makes that story seem more real. Oh, and I had my dad build me a swing like this one in the backyard.

My week off has been fabulous. A lot of family time - I think that the only people I spent time with outside of my family were the Wanamakers - and I got some good alone time in, too. And some good shopping time! I finally found jeans that fit me! Very exciting; usually going jeans shopping is a trial.

I am quite content at home; I need to be praying that God gets me back into the camp mode! I am sure that once I get back on the ranch around my friends it will come back. I have four more weeks to see God working and letting Him use me and be my energy. I am praising Him for even more victories that will come! 

And now, to get lost in one of the greatest love stories of all time...
