What’s Up These Days

[+] Day of Blogs went well. I raised $105 which isn’t bad considering that I really did no publicity for myself this year. The event itself raised about $12.5K I think — I need to go through and do the final tally tomorrow. I’m looking forward to having Blogathon back next year and having Cat and Sheana and Heather dealing with the minute details of running things though!

[+] I’m off crutches (as of Saturdayish) and working on healing the foot and ankle. The foot is better and the pretty colors are gone. The ankle, on the other hand, was rotating and popping in its socket on Thursday so I’m in an aircast now.

[+] I got to go hang out with the Incarnation peeps on the 20th as Jon was at Boy Scout camp and I didn’t really want to be at church alone. It was nice to go down and just be able to worship as Jen and not as Pastor Jon’s wife.Â? It was also quite spiritually feeding to do liturgy that I’m at home with doing and which gives me comfort and lets me be the somewhat high-church person I am.Â? After church, I hit up the evil store, 2-J’s, and then went home.

[+] I finished up the latest Philip Yancey book which is on prayer and I really recommend it.Â? It made me think in a good way and it also subtly changed how I think of prayer, especially in a healing context.Â? I know that the way I’m praying for people now is different and I’m hoping that I continue to learn more in that direction.
