I have noticed *warning: generalization* that while Baptists play songs much too slowly, Presbyterians tend to play somewhat too fast.  It's not so bad; it just throws me off sometimes at the end of a line when I am used to a longer pause.  But one of the things I really like about the church that the staff attends is the music, so I won't be complaining.
Two new staff girls came in today so I had to keep thinking of things for them to do, but I was glad for the help.  After they went to help Jen in the kitchen at 4:00, I was putting towels in rooms that are to be occupied next week, or rather, trying to, because, grrr, I had to refold almost every one and, grrr,  guest towels were mixed in with DTC towels and it was hot and stuffy upstairs and my back was hurting because I didn't have anything high enough to fold on.  If there's one thing I do well here, it's fold towels.  One of my favorite things is folding towels, and afterwards having bouncy stacks of clean, white, perfectly folded towels.
Long day, but it's all good because I got to play Ping Pong after supper with Luc.  We're all trying to get as much Ping Pong as we can (until we're sick of it) before we have to put it away later this week.  You should see me play.  I get the luckiest shots sometimes.  I played Josh an actual game on Sunday and only lost by three points.  Anyway, Ping Pong is great.  And so's volleyball.  And badminton.  And I bet tennis would be fun too...

 
Spero meliora.

  2. I signed up for the ping-pong tournament at Family Camp. I'll probably lose, but it's worth a shot. I like those netted sports too.
