Day at the pier
Today we went to pier 1 to buy some candles needed for the ambiance of church. We ended up buying about 300 dollars worth of candles that were on sale. Needless to say, we looked kind of strange with 3 baskets full of candles. As I was talking to the woman who was gradually ringing up our stuff while the others were looking for more, she asked why we were getting so many candles. Well since I was the only one talking to her, I didn’t really know how to explain it. Casually, I stated that my step brother had started a church called Fresh Life... "...and he likes candles." Obviously, that kind of came off as a little strange so as I spoke to her, I gently eased in that we probably wouldn’t be coming back for a while, to convey that we wouldn’t be lighting them all at once. I didn’t want her thinking that we were some sort of cult or anything!

This 300 dollars would have been better served feeding the needy in Kalispell instead of buying candles.
