So here it is, a week after I posted that I dreamed about Mrs. Bonner, and I ran into her. IT'S BEEN TEN YEARS!!!! And even ten years ago, I just saw her briefly and I was a sophmore in high school. I felt a compulsion to drive up to Dallas/Ft. Worth (about 3-4 hours) and attend the Believer's Convention in Ft. Worth. Now as long as I lived in the area I only went but once when we first moved down here and my mom brought me...but now I live in Austin and I feel i ought to go...so I go...and I am by myself, sitting way up and I see this lady and I say--gee, that looks like Mrs. Bonner--though I couldn't leave my seat right away because the service had started and then when we broke for lunch, she had disappeared. But after lunch I went and planted myself by where I had seen her and I see her again. For some reason I was kind of nervous and I said--Mrs. Bonner?--and she was elated to see me, knew exactly who I was. She said she had just recently been thinking about me and wondering how I was and how they hadn't been to the convention for several years, but something told her she HAD to be here this year. I am ecstatic, because for a few years now, I have been wanting to get in touch with Mrs. Bonner, and now I have all the contact information I could ever need. We had a great time chatting and she even called Mrs. Skaja and I got to talk on the phone with Mrs. Skaja. Hahaha. We talked about teaching and got all caught up. I am disappointed to have to leave for Austin tomorrow and not be able to stay for the rest of the week feasting on the Word of God and sitting next to my Mrs. Bonner, but I am so thankful for this divine appointment...

Hey! See you tomorrow at church! I guess there's going to be a BBQ at Justin Newton's house afterwards, which I'm sure you can come to if you so desire - though if you have homework I don't think it would be the sanest environment for you to do it in. (-;
Anyway, hope you had an awesome week!
