Yay-Boo

Yay - for Rest Week and getting to sleep in an extra half hour because prayers are in the afternoon.

Boo - for trying to stay awake during the afternoon prayer service RIGHT after lunch . . .

Yay - for cold, crisp, Autumny days and wearing scarves.

Boo - for a third of the community to be gone on retreat.

Yay - for random people from California to walk into Lee Abbey and decide to apply to be a community member.

Boo - for having to work Rec 1 three times this week and eating lunch after everyone else (especially when all the good dessert is gone)

Yay - for having a two hour conversation with a resident about every aspect of the Christian faith imagineable!

Boo - for the lack of good apple cider in this country!

Yay - for beautiful and talented Hungarian women who teach aerobics every week (just for girls!); i'm definitely feeling the goodness today.

Boo - for hearing more often about all the people who are leaving in December and January (I think there are about 10).

Yay - for the incredible way God works when you wait and pray.
