So it's been a while and I do appologize. This past week has been fairly busy and most of the time I haven't been in Gießen. On tuesday I left early and drove to Hamburg. Klaus bought some pallette shelving for the warehouse and I had to go pick it up along with some school bags and other stuff. I was expecting a nice 3hr drive each way and I would be back at a fairly decent time in the evening. Turns out it's almost 6 to Hamburg. That was a long day. I was on the road for about 14 hours. I've really been enjoying driving though. A few of the guys here have a second job driving truck on the weekends and it's got me to thinking about getting my CDL when I get back and trying to find someone I can pull for one or two weekends a month just for the heck of it and a little extra cash. It's probablly not worth it but it could be kinda fun for a while.
Wednesday and thrusday were pretty normal unloading and general warehouse days. They're finding more things for me to do now so I'm never bored anymore. That's a blessing and a curse but it's nice for a change.
On friday I went to Darmstadt and Ober-Ramstadt (just south of Frankfurt) to pick up some more things. I had planned to go to Worms and then Weierhof (there are 4 other trainees in the Weierhof area) for the weekend but after leaving Darmstadt my van and trailer were completely full so I came back to Gießen. It turned out for the best. On friday night Maria and I went to the house of one of her akademy friends and watched Simpsons episodes and had a general good time. I was glad I was back. On Saturday morning then I took one of the Campus cars to Worms to pick up some school bags and then I went to Weierhof for saturday and sunday.
When I came back I brought Micah and Brian with me. Tomorrow morning they're flying to Greece for two weeks. I'm back here in the grind of another busy week and that's kinda hard to chew but I have a certain two weeks in January to look foreward to when my family comes.
All in all it's a pretty normal life. Next weekend I go to the Netherlands for an international Mennonite Youth conference but I'll tell all about that when I get back. Until then......
Love and health
