Filming Day 3

Well, today we filmed for the video again. I think I've decided that I'm going to give up my childhood dream of being a movie star cause I'm ready to be done! lol We filmed two and half hours today which seemed much longer. Somehow I ended up with a large "piece" - no details yet, sorry - so I've had to be at all the taping sessions (and I have to watch myself everyday all summer - !) That's almost over. We have a shot to do tonight and some to do tomorrow and then we should be good.

My graduation thank yous have been put on hold until after I can find time in my schedule to sleep and keep my stuff together! The schedule is crazy here.

Tomorrow we finish up SST support pictures so that should be fun. I didn't do mine today because of the filming. The bugs up here are insane. I've killed a ton of spiders in our bathroom (and my towel), smooshed three in my camera bag, removed a june bug from my pile of stuff and I've flicked a few ticks (cause I can't get the guts up to kill them with my fingers). Camp is full of surprises!

Time is flying by yet it seems like forever since I've been home. My life is all here it seems because it's all I have time to think about.

Yesterday I hit the culmination of some frusteration over a few things going on in my heart and had the chance to talk to Mama Ruth (camp director's wife - AMAZING lady, God works through her SOOO much!) about it and that helped and then I was working on changing my thinking and I was praying and then that night God just came along an comforted me through the fellow staffers. I no longer felt like I was alone, but surrounded by people who supported me and knew how I felt cause they'd been there to.

God is amazing. I could type on and on but I need to get my junk together for Chapel (this messenger bag of mine gets really heavy! haha) Thank you Rach and Jenn for emailing me - I really appreciate it, I'll try to get back to you as soon as I can.

Beth and Rebecca, thank you SOO much for the letters - I almost cried when I read them. I love you guys! (and I'll try to get back to those too)

Prayer Requests:
- Right now my big one is that God would bring His healing touch to my back. This is the third day that I've struggled with a severe pinch in my lower back on both sides. Caroline's going to try to help message it out but I don't know if that can be done. I'm in alot of pain and I couldn't even carry Elana (staff child - age 4) because it compressed my spine to much. I can't sit unfidgetting for more than two minutes because it hurts. So, if you could pray for that I'd appreciate it and if you have any ideas, please pass them on.

Thank you all! Much love, your sister in Christ, appreciating your prayers,
Courtney Lynn
