Albany; This Weekend

So we had a lot of fun this weekend, well, I guess, haha. I was sick the entire time. We went to Albany with the band; I had requested the day off on Friday from work cause we had to drive 5 hours to get down there for Friday nights service. It started snowing on Thursday; I was totally praying for it to quit; 1) because I had to drive 2 hours to Athens and preferred not to slip and slide (which I was able to get off a little early to get there before dark and freezing temps), and 2) I was really looking forward to going to Albany and playing with the band. We've had like almost 2 months off, so I's ready. We got a new temporary (possibly permanent) guitarist. He's not bad. I enjoyed getting to meet him and hearing him play. He's definitely got skills. Picked up our whole song repitoure in a matter of two days; I would say that's pretty impressive : )

Come Friday morning, I had had a sore throat for about 2 days, gradually getting worse. I was hoping it would just go away with some cough medicine. Nope! My voice Friday night was not pretty, haha, but after watching the video, it wasn't as bad as it sounded in my head when it was coming out, lol. But I ended up going to the doctor on Satuday and getting some anti-biotics, and I feel so much better now. After two days of getting those meds in my system, my throat barely hurts, although I'm a little hoarse. But hopefully my voice will be back to its normal self come Saturday nights performance in Royston. If any of you are local, you should come out to Springs Church by the college. We'll be doing praise and worship at 6pm for Hope House (a local healing ministry).

But anyway, this weekend was overall well. We had a new vocal to join our team, and this weekend was her first time singing with us. She was amazing!! She fits right in with our crazy group. Looking forward to all of us being together again this weekend.
