Monday mornings

Well, today was one of those monday mornings when you just want to go back to bed. Ever had one? I even cried.. I'm feeling the tiredness in my body, and the lack of initiative is crawling up under my skin.
God save me! (in a desperate "arms in the air shouting out loud" dramatic scene from a movie)
The problem is that I have put it upon myself.. I have chosen it.. so there is no compassion to get.

Well, the light "in the end of the tunnel" is that my mom is comming tonight! As is my dad and my little brother:) I'm exited. I love my family. They are truly a blessing from God, and I'm lookimg forward to spending some time with them showing them my life her in Skien. Or parts of it at least.. not everyone is here of you my dear ones that I work with.. wish you could meet my folks..

And for you who haven't been here.. if you want to come visit I can get you a room in the prison.. and maybe a slice og bread and some water.. hehe. Just kidding. We treat our guests nice:) Mohaha

Take care
Later gater

Happy Birthday to me:)

Jepp, it's my birthday, and we are gonna party like it's my birthday. At least there is coffe and cake in the prison backyard for those who are in Skien:) Anne Berit is making "the Cake", and I am... well.. buying the ice cream. So if you are in town.. you know where to go.

For all you friends that are not around: I wish you a good day, and too bad you are not here. You can send me an sms:)

love you

What to say.. Lord it's ALL YOU!

I'm back in the T-office after doing my working week for YWAM in Fredrikstad. I did commersal for DTS/YWAM on a summerconferance. I can only say that God was faithful, and that what looked like beeing the most awful week, turned out to be a blessing.

Here's the story: I arrived in Fredrikstad a couple of hours before the opening meeting. I go to get my spot for the stand, only to find out that is it outside..and we have an indoor stand..and it's quite windy. But I get the stuff out, and I'm starting to put the posters together. Now comes the part thath I don't want to talk about really, but it involves a lot of fighting with the wind to get the stand to do what is't suppose to do:stand. Well, no need to say thath it didn't work. But no, it didn't work. So I gave up (since it is an expensive thing to destroy).

Now here's the good part! I got quite desperat as you proberbly understand,(you see, I'm all alone and I would have to take the stand appart every evening..and put it back together..)and I was just crying to God to deliver me from this evil. Cool thing is that HE DID!!! Around dinner the next day some guys came over to me and asked if we could trade spots!! They want to be outside, and are rather desperat themselves. So I rejoice, and I laugh, couse why wouldn't God answer?.. AND: the new spot is right outside the door to the Youthhall. Every body had to pass my stand! haha.

Andreas G came earlyer than I touhgt also, so he helped me out it up. I was able to sleep at night for the rest of the conferance.


Thank you Lord.
Love B

Living in Skien

Well, what can I say.. Living is simple..Work, eat, hang out.. live:)

The week has gone fast, and I have been enjoying the company of Nina og Geir Edvin (Erlends brother&wife), and Jordan. Lots of bbq, and such summer stuff. And Skien delivers good weather, also as promised. I'll give you some "eyesnack" soon..promise.

Summerhug

It's done, I'm out!

Puh..what a rush. I'm finally out of the appartment, and I'm handing in the keys soon and very soon. Chapter closed. Thank you God for you faithfulness aslo in this!

You see,.I was a bit stressed out about how I was gonna manage the whole moveing out thing. I had had people help me carry most of the stuff earlyer, but I still had the kitchen, lamps, and clothes left to move. And the Sofa.. heavy and a nightmare to get down the stairs.. BUT: It all worked out. The SOE guys carried it down for me, and the guyes in the store "down under" dumped it for me. Brittern, Therese and Anne Berit helped me clean, couse I cut my hand on a nail in my eagerness. So it's done. I'm out.!!God knows my limits.. and He knows how to care for me.

So now I'm enjoying my room at the base. All my stuff is in boxes, but I'll get around to that later.
