Relentless was the name of the women's conference that Carol, myself and my mother went to. It was so amazing Hillsong from Australia led worship and Yolanda Admas performed. The the speakers were Lisa Bevere, Joyce Meyers, and Creflo Dollar. I was so impacted and built up on how awesome God really is. It was a great time for the girls to bond we even got matching t-shirts....pretty funny.

Can we say fish out of water....I know new jobs are supposed to be crazy and awkward but I think I have had one very interesting first week. Hmm let's see where should I begin....?
OK funny things that have happened to me this week. 2 solid weeks in classroom orientation you know me I have to make it interesting.
Well Let's start with Monday morning.. I was physically running to the Children's parking garage (because we shuttle to work and I waited for like 10 minutes for a shuttle and there were none to be had) so that I would not be late for grad school out in west county and I tripped and fell yep ....had a white shirt on spilt my ice tea on the front of me and skinned both my knees to prove it. I wanted to lay there and cry but I heard a voice in my head "get up Christie". Ok so as much as you can recover from that I did.....
Tuesday went into bathrooms that I thought were the women's bathroom, I mean I guess the urinals should have tipped me off and definitely passed a man as I was walking out(could have been worse he could have been in there with me).
Since BJC is making it mandatory for all of there employees to get a flu shot I went to the employee health fair to get my BMI, cholesterol levels and flu shot for our insurance plan. It was a zoo I mean people were just every where and long lines. So I went and had my finger pricked and then stood in the line for the flu shot for like 30 minutes. I hear them call out the name "Christina" so I raised my hand yeah that's me....She motioned for me to come out of the line I had been standing in for the past 30 minutes and I said no it's ok you can give me my results here. She said "no we need to talk". Ok I am thinking, "embarrassing something is wrong with me and now all my new friends know it" She starts to give me results something about my BMI showing that I am OBESE and my cholesterol is through the roof as well as my blood sugar.....I stopped listening I just wanted my results and wanted out of there. so I run back in line devastated of course. Thinking I will never eat again..... and I hear them call the name Christina again, I look down at my paper and it is not my last name. I was so relieved at that point I threw my hands up and said thank god this is not me. I am sure the lady whose it was, was standing right besides me.... Well we all got a good laugh out of it but I will tell you it was traumatic. Somewhere in their I lost my purse but it was recovered and I actually survived the rest of the week.
I am hoping for a better week. Hopefully it can't get worse..... I'll keep you posted.
