Fellowship trumps blogging, I guess.

Well. It happened.

I forgot to post yesterday. So I guess that means I'm out of the NaBloPoMo contest. Sad!!

On the other hand, the reason I forgot to post was probably because I had a busy, busy day yesterday. I woke up early to do some housework (and laundry) that I just couldn't leave until the weekend. Then work was busy. Then I raced to my neighborhood Kroger to get milk and chocolate chips (can you see where I'm going here?), and then raced home to make cookies that I could take to my Community Group which was starting at 7 p.m.

Community Group is wonderful, and I'm starting to really get to know and invest in the people there. So that's what my night was spent doing, instead of blogging. When the regular "Community Group" time was over, I stayed a little longer to finish a beer with the host/leader, his girlfriend and his roommate. I was there until past 10:30, just talking and laughing with new people who I actually really like.

When I got home, NaBloPoMo was the furthest thing from my mind - all I could think about was bed, and about the ways that God's taking care of me here in this new city.

So I guess it's ok that I disqualified myself. Fellowship trumps blogging. :)

the same thing happened to me during NaBloPoMo last year. real life always trumps blogging--no need to apologize for forgetting to write about life because you were too busy LIVING it! :)
