Anyway, this week has been interesting thus far. I had to work last night and have to work the next few nights also. Last night someone came in that was losing blood so I had to issue my first units of blood to the ER. The paperwork is a bit daunting in that process and that is something that really scares me to screw up because it can really hurt someone if their transfusion history gets messed up.
I made a reservation for Riley at a kennel here in Louisville yesterday since we are heading up for Eric and Paula's wedding this weekend. I feel a bit like a mom leaving her child for several days. I hate to think how I'll act when I have a real baby because I already cry when Riley freaks out if I have to leave him at the vet. I don't think he's going to be very happy being left, but at least he will have constant attention, which he wouldn't have up north since Joe and I are going to be so busy up there. I haven't been this excited to be in Grand Rapids...ever I don't think.
Joe and I went to an informational meeting on a mission trip to Chile in October through our church. I guess we will be doing a lot of Scripture distribution, maybe some creative ministries, prayer walking, etc. We have to decide by March 30th if we are going to go. I would really like to go on this for a lot of reasons. It will be interesting to see if it pans out since the last...hmm...three mission trips I have attempted to go on have been cancelled due to things like September 11th, pregnancies, etc. If any of you who read this could be praying about this decision for us that would be wonderful! It's going to be a bit of a job raising money for two of us to go instead of just one, so we really want to be sure this is what God would have us do.
Well, now that I've written pretty much one of the most random and hard -to-follow posts EVER, I suppose I should get ready for work. I hope you all are enjoying your week!

Ooh! I will pray for this trip! I had no idea... very cool. Keep me posted on the decision-making process. :)
I am excited that you have a blog! And that there is pink on it!
I am praying for you all as you make the decision about Chile. The missionary y'all would be working with down there is wonderful, if that helps. :)
Have fun at the wedding!
update your blog, yo.
