Yet another day of amazingness and blessings from God

SO TODAY WAS ANOTHER AMAZING DAY. I needed to walk to the store to get a couple things and I wanted someone to go with me but no one wanted to so I went alone. I was in a little bit of a funk, pretty sad because I didn’t want to be alone and it is a cloudy day today- looks like it’s gonna rain. So I was just talkin to God and I ask Him to cheer me up. So I continued on, laughing at the cows and sheep that follow me with their eyes and perk up their ears when I make their sounds. I listened to music and moved to the beat, but still felt sad. Then I ran into a few girls from church who are Bre’s age and walked a little of the way with them, talking about various things. After we split up I felt a little better, but not over-the-top happy like I wanted to be. So I continued on to find myself a small silver ring for my pinky finger (an important priority, I know). I got one and headed back home. THEN the moment that amazingness occurred. I was about to cross the street when the blue double cab bus pulls into the Paua & Pacific Jewel parking lot. I immediately start jumping, screaming, and flailing my arms. I had heard that the guy who owns it goes to my church. So I ran up to him screaming “I love your bus!” Turns out it is a 59, so amazing. He is very nice. So we start talking about VW’s and shows in NZ and the US. Then he asked if I’ve ever seen his wife’s bug. I knew she had one but I never had seen it. I asked what year it was, bracing myself for a lame year. He said it was a ’61. YES! So great. I was sooooooo excited then. THEN she pulls into the driveway with her bug!!! A beautiful, clean rhd two tone blue and white bug. LOVE IT! They are big surfers and just really nice people. So then Brian asked if I wanted a ride back to the Convent. I was on the way to New World, the grocery store, to get a few things so I said I’d take a ride to there, which is about half way. So I got to ride in the bus all the way to New World! Saved me a half an hour. And then he asked if I wanted a ride to the Convent if I was just getting a few things. So I ran in and then hopped right back into the bus and he took me all the way back to the Convent!!! The ride itself was nice, but what I loved even more was being in a VW. I’ve never gone this long without one and it was long overdue. I AM SO THANKFUL! The best part was we talked about VW’s the whole time and about labs because his chocolate lab was in the back seat. SO EXCITING!!!! Anyways, so I’m beyond very excited. Such a good day. I love God. He’s so good to me.
