Flooded in Kamloops

*Yay Me* - it's been UNDER 10 days since I last posted...this may be a 2012 Life in Technicolour blog record! I can't confirm that though...but, I am about 95.3% sure. ;)

Tomorrow we head to Victoria for our church district assembly. Bran is required to go and give his pastor's report etc. It's extremely exciting and loads of fun (I am rolling my eyes as I write this.) Anyways, as with all things, we will make the best of this. I am looking forward to the ferry ride, staying in a hotel, going to the museum and whatever else awaits us. This will be Elijah's first ferry ride, and my first trip with Bran to Victoria!



As you can see above, we are currently flooded here in Kamloops! We have been taking little trips down to the river every other day to watch it rising. It's pretty amazing when we  live in a  world in which we humans think we have everything under control, and yet, here the water is rising! Elsewhere, the earth is shaking, and breaking, and.....all the other environmental catastrophes that can occur!

Well, gotta run.

Return of The Prodigal Blogger...

Well, here I am. I haven't even looked back to see how long it has been since I last blogged. Let's just say that time has been great in demand, and short in supply. Sure, my husband has taken the baby for an hour or 2 some days so I can have "time to myself". But being the person I am, I don't know how to relax. An hour of free time means, clean the house, catch up on your chores, get your hair and makeup done.....

So today I am saying that housework can wait....and my hair which hasn't been washed since Saturday  can remain in it's miserable shape for at least a few hours today.

Candles have been lit, blinds remain closed to hide from the outside world........I turned on some worship music but subsequently had to turn it off as I got distracted from what I want to do this morning. I have really wanted to get back into blogging. It has been a great outlet in the past, and I feel an increasing need to continue that as the pressures of life have continued to compound.

I was recently thinking that it would be great to write a blog titled "Confessions of a  Pastor's Wife".  As memories and experiences swirled in my head, I then thought oh wait, there are so many other confessionals I could write, such as:

• Confessions of a Pastor's Wife
• Confessions of a Pastor's Daughter
• Confessions of a Pastor's Granddaughter
• Confession's of a Worship Leader
• Confession's of a Mother

Ooooh the stories I could tell you.

I really don't know how many times I could say this, but honestly, I don't believe anyone other then other people in the ministry and God truly know what it's like to lead a church, and the impact that it has on your life in a positive and negative way. Ultimately, we are blessed to be in this role and feel the calling to do so....

But let's be honest here, people are a pain in the butt! 

Yes, you heard me correctly. =) 

I'll dive into some things later on, as I challenge myself to blog on a more regular basis. 

Well, time for my next project. Talk to y'all soon! 

XOxo Nae
