Day Forty-Seven with Cancer

Day Forty-Seven with Cancer/Day Twenty-Eight without Cancer:

What a lovely day!  The church service was really great.  I love hearing Pastor Terry preach.  He has a wonderful ability to take our regular, everyday lives and directly pair it with biblical teachings.  It's awesome to see food, super heroes, Home Improvement and other little things as tools for teaching.  Sundays are always a good day for me because I get to see my family...if only for a little while.  I really enjoy sitting around after service and catching up a bit.  It makes me happy.

I came home from church and tried to rest for a short amount of time.  That didn't work out well at all.  It was about 1:40 when I got home and I wanted to head to the lake by 2:30.  The Old Mill Winery was having their annual Polka Fest!  I had to invite my "Polka Family" and go up there.  Nick was the only one able to come, but it was worth it.  We got to see Joey Tomsick play.  It was chilly and windy on the lake, but there were some die hard polka fans.  I stinkin love those people.  I mean, there's just no unhappy polka.  You can't help but feel good when it's playing.  So, I got to hang with the surrogate big brother and catch up, as well as be entertained by an awesome polka band.  We started getting a little too cold, so we went over to Eddie's to get a cheeseburger.  I was SUPER pumped since I'm actually allowed to eat the stuff there (except for the hot dogs).  I told Nick that they served the BEST cheeseburgers.  He was skeptical, but two later he was convinced.  I think Eddie's should cater my wedding.  That would be phenomenal.  We sat for a long time and discussed all kinds of things and finally left around 6.

Mom and I chatted for a while when I got home.  I received a call from a local man who'd like to get me involved in all the local churches and have them take love offerings for me.  He seemed very kind.  I'm not sure if I want to book my entire summer and not be at my church at all, but it would be good to get back into singing regularly.  I tried again to sleep...and failed again.  Mom and I ended up watching the Tony Awards.  How fun!  I can't imagine how fantastic it would be to be nominated for one.  What a huge honor that would be.  Who knows...maybe someday.
