This past week I was in contact with Jocelyn from our church, I needed to get her address so that I could send her Nicole's baby shower invitation. I don't even know Jocelyn and in talking I found out some interesting things. First, she's from the same small town in Ontario where a few of my relatives live and she knows them!
Then, the Lord was just chattering away at me when I was emailing her a reply. He said that I needed to offer her the spare bedroom in our house because she's going to need it until she get married this July. I offered and it was TRUE! She does need a place to stay from April 19-July. She and Steve came over on Saturday to meet us, because like I said we don't really know each other. We got along very well and they loved our house.
The Lord is really speaking to me a lot about this situation. Hence Proverbs 11:24-26 (NLT):
Give freely and become more wealthy;
be stingy and lose everything.
The generous will prosper;
those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed.
People curse those who hoard their grain,
but they bless the one who sells in time of need.
The funny thing is that Brian told me yesterday that in the past he felt that someone was going to be living with us but didn't know who and so he never mentioned it to me.

U2 show
For my birthday my parents got us tickets to go see U2 3D at the IMax. We went tonight and it was great. Except for the part where you have to wear dorky looking 3D glasses.
U2 concerts are very memorable for me. I don't go to concerts very often, so when I do attend one it has to be a really awesome show.
The first U2 concert was with Brian when we were dating and we sat in the nosebleed section of the Palace. It was great and all but I couldn't see anything on stage.
The second concert was on our honeymoon in Rhode Island. It, of course, was very memorable but more so because we had floor tickets and were able to be right in the middle of the high energy action of the concert. I was fantastic!!!
Then on our anniversary 3 years ago we went to another concert and were on the floor at the Palace. The R.I. venue was a lot smaller so the Palace concert had a much larger feel to it.
I highly recommend seeing this IMax show. It is as good as being on the floor at a U2 concert!
Thanks mom and dad!
(and thanks for babysitting too. I feel like a human this evening for once!)

Watch this. It's 18 minutes long but well worth it and quite interesting.

It Can Happen to YOU
I won the prize for bringing your bag to Trader Joe's!!! I knew this would happen. I've been bringing my own bags to that store before they even offered this incentive.
