Randi's Reality

Ahhhh...it's peaceful in the dorm this morning. Thank You God! I prayed hard for peace this morning. I needed this.

They finally let the women go to work....kind of. In the hallway - cleaning mustard greens. Of course, I don't get to go because Federal inmates don't get to work. We just get to sit. I am okay with this because it is completely quiet in the dorm. I love this!

There hasn't been much peace around here lately. Everyone has been cutting up. We are just so bored that we are trying to get into trouble.

We are making Frisbees out of paper plates that we are not allowed to have. Having water gun fights with empty glue bottles. Throwing food across the table while someone else tries to catch it with their mouth. Doing cartwheels around the dorm. And the newest thing is having "paint gun" fights with spoons, Fireballs, & inmates running very fast!

I am sooo through with this place though. We are turning into a bunch of kids in here.

Wow, today has been a powerful day!

Things are happening behind these bars and outside of these bars for that matter.

All of you readers will be happy to know that Carolyn has gone home. She was released on Friday. Please keep her in the forefront of your prayers! I know she is going to be struggling out there and we sure don't want to see her back here again! (No offense, Carolyn, but we don't!) Next time we meet, it better be in the free world!

I know she is reading this because she was so excited about getting on the Internet to see what the blog looks like in real life!

Carolyn, stay strong! And stay sober! There is no other way. Remember everything good that you always talked about that you want back in your life so bad! And remember that you cant have it if you let your addiction take over!

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight!" Proverbs 3:5

That is the only way! And don't give up! God will never throw anything at you that you cant handle! Don't forget that!

We love you, Carolyn, and you are in my prayers constantly!

Love,
Randi & the A dorm
