boarding in CO: take 2
It may not look that impressive, but trust me... I was going fast.
Snowboarding at Copper Mountain in Colorado. There are not many other things that I'd rather be doing.
The day before the wedding, my younger siblings and I, Abu the best man, and a kid named Sam from Iowa, decided to treck to the mountains to squeeze in a day of snowboarding. I mean... it's CO. You have to go snowboarding while you are here. Anyways, the day was absolutely perfict. And when I say perfict, I mean: aprox. 35 degrees, sunny, little to no wind, no precipitation, and the nicest powdered snow that you could ever imagine. Perfict. My sister and I stayed mostly on the greens to practice our technique, while my brother, Abu, and Sam ran off to the harder greens and blues. I worked on my toe-heel edge S curves-- specifically narrowing my curves and learning to handle speed. I did pretty ok. My last run was the worst though. It was a hard course, intermixing greens with blues, with an extremely long and steep hill near the bottom. I was really tired. I basically snowplowed that run on my heels, not even having the strength to switch to toe-edge. My brother Aduma would be mad to see that. But... he was back home preparing for a wedding of sorts.
All in all it was a great day. I had not expected another chance to snowboard before the end of the season, so a suprise trip to Copper was wonderful! I cannot wait until next season to pick up where I left off!!

the new addition to the family
**News Flash**
I have a new sister! She's older than me, but not too old. Only 25 I think. She's everything I ever wanted in an older sister...and more! God is so good. He blessed my bro, Aduma, with an amazing wife. I am so happy. They were married in beautiful Colorado on Pi day. She was so beautiful. He was so hansome. They were so in love. And still are, I'm guessing. They're on their honeymoon now. I have no idea where that is.
As for other news, nothing much has changed. I'm still looking for a job, but God is really helping me to not be anxious about it. It's a growing process. With each passing month being essentially unemployed, the Lord is teaching me how to rely in Him. How to trust in His unfailing love. His perfict plan.
Jeremiah 29:11-13: "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
That's a promise. I choose to trust in that promise and all the other promises God has given in His Word over anything that this life, this world, has thrown at me.
"Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from Him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honor depend on God; He is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to Him, for God is our refuge." -Psalm 62:5-8
I have a potential opportunity with Kent General Hospital, a facility about an hour south of here in Dover. It seems to be a bone hanging on a string from a stick just out of reach in front of my face. Everything seems perfict except for the distance. An hour away means a new car and/or relocation. An hour away means difficulties getting to church and Bible Study in Newark.
What exactly is the Lord's plan again???
