Cancelled

 Last week, I thought I'd be in Wauchula, Florida by now with my friends from Bama Wesley, working on repairing a house. But, instead, I am sitting on a couch in my room in Birmingham, writing a blog post on why our mission trip was cancelled.

 Right now, I feel like everything I was overwhelmed about in the last few weeks have been cancelled. That seems like a good thing, right? But I just feel disoriented and confused about what to do next. The mission trip was cancelled because of the coronavirus. Disney World is closed, so we would not be able to go at the end of the trip. I don't have classes until the end of March. Bama Wesley is closed, and so is the sweet Hispanic ministry I've been going to on Sundays.

 This is crazy. It really is. I don't know what I'm supposed to with myself for the next two weeks! I'll probably catch up on homework. But, then what do I do once I do that?

 I am really annoyed by all of the coronavirus stuff. I want it to all go away so we can go on with life like before! But, I get to be with my family longer, so that's really awesome. I have more time to spend with Jesus and to relax. I had been thinking about how I hadn't had much time to truly relax anyway. So, that's really awesome. God has a bigger plans in all this. It's going to be okay.

 So, I'm going to get ahead on homework. I'm going to hang out with my brother, Luke. I will play with my silly and energetic dog, Auggie. I get to eat some good breakfast with my family. My mama made me some grits this morning and it was so warm and delicious. If you donated to the mission trip, I will give you a refund. I am working on that and will get it to you soon. I will go to Disney World with my friends another time. But for now, I am going to relax and trust in the Lord.

 Kthnxbai!
