I had 2 parties to attend today, but I was feeling more motivated to work on my Bible study (better term) for tomorrow, so I skipped out. I also knew, though, that I had to work out. I'm trying to keep my new motto in mind: Depression can't hit a moving target. I should have gone to the gym to do some backwards elliptical-ing, but I read to pass the time on that, and I wasn't in the mood to read anything. I don't have a magazine I'm into right now, I don't have a book I'm salivating over, and I just didn't want to be distracted by anything. So I took both dogs out for a walk, which was lovely.
In the end, I felt good about my preparations for tomorrow, so I headed to the second party. We have a pretty low-key approach in our YA group, with a lot of group discussion and an open forum vibe, so I just needed to get my order of operations straightened out. I'm still new to teaching, so I get a little nervous.
Also, I didn't end up getting a satisfactory movie clip relevant to Hosea. I wanted something more surprising and maybe edgy, something about loving in the face of rejection and hatred, but I couldn't figure anything out. I'm stuck with The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, which feels like a cop out. I mean, I love it, but it's blatantly about Jesus, so using it to represent redemption isn't all that creative.
Oh, well. Have an awesome Sunday! Read your Bible!
