7 APUers, 3 days with my sister, and 1 week off work

I am looking forward to this week...

The first of 7 APU people to grace Utah's presence this weekend arrived tonight, and I'm so excited to greet the rest tomorrow morning! This weekend Standing Together is hosting the inaugural National Student Dialogue Conference. Friday and Saturday around 200 LDS and Evangelical students and alumni will gather to listen to speakers from both faiths as well as engage in interfaith dialgoue. I honestly can't wait. I think God will do great things this weekend as relationships are formed and deeper understandings arise from all parties involved. It will be great and I can't wait to tell more. It will also be so much fun and such a stress reliever to have friends here!

Also a stress reliever: A whole week without PF Chang's!!! This is amazing news. I'm so excited. I requested the time off since my friends will be here this weekend and then the most exciting news!! Erin comes to visit on Monday! Yay for sister time. Seriously needed... I cannot wait!

More good news: Robyn, Jill and I found a place to live. It's right by Trolley Square. 3 bedroom, 2 bath duplex. I love it. I'll post pictures when I can. I move in next week and it will be so nice to have a place I can honestly call home. Living with Tricia has been great and I will miss her so much, but living in my own place will dramatically change things. I am sure of it!

So prayer requests: Definitely this weekend as it will be a mile marker in Evangelical/LDS relationships on all scales. Also, I'm feeling a bit ill and I could definitely benefit from prayers that would at least keep me healthy while my sister is in town and the move is taking place. Please continue to pray for God's guidance in my time here in Utah. I'm so happy, but missing home as well. Hope all of you are doing well. Can't wait to tell you more as life unfolds!

By the way, it's getting super cold! And fifty degrees is starting to feel more like sixty. And leaves are falling everywhere. And everytime it storms we get snow in the mountains. Last night was the first storm to snow in the valley and stick. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see it. Okay... miss you all. Thanks for catching up!!

Peace,
Cat

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. (If he will be possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll I thankful, bye friend).
