First day off!!!
Alarm went off at 8 and I snoozed it til Lewis called to say he was setting off which meant I had 45minsish to get ready. Very excited to see Lewis and his new car!! Changed my contact lenses today (thats for my record, unless you are particularly interested in my eyes….) About 50mins later I saw him pull up and bounced outside to say hello and stroke the car which is very nice!!! Lewis came in and i finished getting ready – he straightened the back of my hair for me coz i apparently had missed a bit!
We then went to pick up Matt and SammyJ because they were too lazy to walk to us and went to church for 10am. Very weird being in a car with Lewis driving! Went to Billericay Baptist Church which was where the Baptism was last week. Was a nice service, few people came up and said hi which was nice. We gave Matt and SammyJ a lift back and went for a short drive, came down Norsey Road with insanely big houses on it!! We were home by 12 which NEVER happens back in Braintree!
Beth cooked an amazing Roast Dinner while I caught up with all the news from Braintree, how can so much happen in one week?! Rich (Beth and Stephens son) came for dinner too so we were hearing very interesting stories of his time in Uganda. Also how small a world it is as Rich is now living with a guy Lewis studied with in Cambridge!
By the time we had finished dinner and sat down for a cup of tea it was about time for Lewis to go 
I tried to persuade him to stay longer but he wasn’t having any of it! Oh well, was really nice to see him! Love you

Spent the rest of the afternoon on my laptop playing about and chatting to a couple of people, watched a programme about Thomas Hardy which was quite interesting. Uploaded some photos of Lewis and Me onto Facebook.
Been packing stuff tonight ready for the residential training week this week in St Marks, Saffron Walden (where I had my interview). Should be a good week, if i can stay sane!! Not sure if I will be able to keep my blog updated, so forgive me if you don’t hear from me for a while!
*Hope. We have a hope, a certainty of Heaven through Jesus Christ*
