Hola! It's been a week full of busyness, news, blessings, and service. Let it be known that in less than 7 days I leave for Mexico!! WOW! That translates into some 150 hours until I get on a plane headed south. Tonight, I went over to a house where we prepped for a garage sale that is happening tomorrow. We are raising funds for the orphanage that we will be working at down there. We hope for good weather and a good turnout. I went with a teammate tonight and helped put out signs for the sale. You can just call me the 'arrow gal' as I put well-seen arrows on the signs. I typed up the songs we are going to be singing down there last night as well as our team song...which I had in my head tonight. I think we are all getting very excited...at least I hope we are, anyways. Oh, I got word over email that our team has just over three-fourths of our support raised...wahoo!!!
Tuesday night was our first orchestra rehearsal for patriotic services for church. I am a bit amazed at how well I played that night, considering I am a little out of shape. I am once again, playing my clarinet and look forward to that weekend. The choir has been practicing now for almost a month but they have to have their words and notes memorized. I always look forward to the 4th of July as it is one of my favorite holidays. (I know I will say this again when it gets closer to the day).
Saturday I had the privilege to go to a wedding of a good friend of mine (Cheryl) that I had somewhat lost contact with. Everything about and in the wedding was beautiful, including the bride and groom. It was so good that we got to see and talk to each other, and almost make the other cry because of a good thing!!
Work has been busy as it was a payroll week and the first couple days I spent catching up on my filing that was getting piled up. On Monday, a meeting was held after work with some big news being announced. None of us knew (we thought) what the news was going to be. (Drum roll, please!) There will be a merger between the company I work for with two other companies. They hope to have the deal closed by September, and we have to get approval from suppliers to close it. They could only tell us what they know thus far at the meeting...hmm, very profound. There are still lots of unknowns yet, but there was a little blurb on it in the paper on Tuesday and then a bigger article in Wednesday's paper. I am shocked, but I think it's going to be a good move.
Hope you all have a great weekend!
