Plenty of stuff to tell about, I'll type it all later. I'll just say it's nice to be back in my own time zone :D

Too bad there was no praise band or youth group... I was looking forward to seeing everyone...

You know, a lot of wonderful things can happen in one night, and it takes equally wonderful people to make them happen... I can truly say I have people like that in my life, and for that, I will always be thankful. I have wonderful, supportive people in my life, and that's something I am happy about.

Ok... I updated my LJ userinfo... everyone should do the same :)

East Jordan went great... one of my patients made me want to cry though... I'm sure you'll all hear about my day until you're sick of it though :)

It's a shame I can't see all of you today, I miss everyone.
