Heart. Ache.

....just when you think life is going along swimmingly, BAM!

I spent Friday wandering around the city, I got Kent's Valentine's Day gift.

I bought 3 books, 2 for friends and one for me.  I am currently reading Sinner's Creed by Scott Stapp, an autobiography of the lead singer of Creed.  (I <3 Creed)

I stopped in at Lush, I have always wanted to try a bath bomb, so I decided I could more than likely handle the "super smellyness" of a bomb, which a month ago, probably would've sent me running to the toilet to puke.  Seriously.  I am still not back to being myself...yet.

When I walked into Lush, I was greeted by the nicest, most obviously gay man I have seen in a while.  If you know me, this doesn't scare me, nor do I feel all judgemental-Christian about it.  He's a nice young man, and he needs some lovin' from Mamma Kim.

So, he was super helpful and when I went to check out my stuffs, I was met by older-obviously-gay man.  And I knew instantly 2 things:

1.  I would be back to Lush, the customer service rocks.
2.  I found my new best girlfriend.  (Sorry Pam!)

I had a job interview, that went well, I don't know the outcome.  I actually spent the weekend wondering if it was a good idea.  Questioning whether or not I really want this job.  Too many reasons to list here.

Kent and I had a good start to the weekend by gathering with his former co-workers at a meat draw, we brought home 3 different "meats" for our freezer.  Bonus!

Saturday night Kent and I went to a Uvic Vikes Basketball game and we were having a great date.

And then we came home.  To heartache.

Something we thought we had dealt with in our house -- was pushed to the forefront of our lives.  Kent came around the kitchen and showed me a Tupperware with marijuana in it and drug paraphernalia.

As a person who has come from drugs, as a youth leader who has seen it first hand destroy lives, I couldn't deal with this new news.

So, Kent and I are in the midst of dealing with the fall out.  How do we do this?  How do we handle this?  

Resonating in my heart is that triple threat that I talked about earlier.  Grace. Mercy. Love.  But I am going to add another one.  Boundaries.

So, I will be Jesus' hands, feet and eyes...but Jesus never said that we were to live our lives without Boundaries.
