Was boring. Woke up early to go get my mom from the airport. Packed and went to church. Fell asleep in church. Left in the middle of church to go sleep in bed. Woke up. Waited. Read Real Sex: The Naked Truth About Chastity. Waited some more. Got ready to go out. Waited. Went out. Bought water. Waited. Went back. Waited. Got frustrated. Went to call Jean (the boyfriend). Hostel phone didn't work. Got refund. Tried again. Went outside. No internet cafe across the street. Got frustrated. Went back inside. Got more specific directions. Went to internet cafe. They didn't have video set up on gchat. Got frustrated. Went in the back and made a phone call. Finally got through. Talked to Jean for 10 minutes. He told me that, "I can't get frustrated just because everything doesn't go my way all the time." I tell him yeah, but nothing is going my way. My friend is sick. My mom doesn't want to do anything. I'm in Dublin and can't freaking find anyone to look around this amazing city with. But he's right. And I know it. So I start laughing. He tells me exactly what I need to hear. He's great like that.
Go to dinner with my mom and get a salmon salad and a glass of wine. It's perfect. We talk for 2 hours about life changing things. God is teaching both of us so much. So thankful for a mother who loves God and who is willing to admit when she is wrong. It's been a long road. Life, that is. But there is so much to be grateful for. And this is just the beginning...
