Emily Adomanis

I’ve recently become a personal organizer on top of being a personal assistant and working 5 days at pf changs. I don’t have much spare time…to say the least. When I do, I spend it with the Lord or cook to keep myself sane (ok, I manage to fit in Lost every Thursday night).

Also, my laptop is broken…so the desktop will do for now until some major money rolls in. I’m trying to have faith that the Lord can heal my computer…trying.

So, that’s my excuse for not posting.

(go see Ben Stein’s Expelled)

I am very happy to be home and settling into routine again.  I’m in a little bit of a transitional season…or something.  Maybe it’s the opposite of that. It’s more like a sitting still and waiting season.  I think I’m just supposed to sit and let the Lord love on me for a little while.  I’m hitting a brick wall in the spirit, to be honest.  I need breakthrough in almost every area.  Especially that of receiving love from the Father’s heart.  There’s all this really fun stuff I’d love to write about and I sit down and nothing comes out.  I think I go through times of internal and external processing. This being a time of internal…though maybe this blog marks a change in seasons…who knows. 

(Laura with Shatto Strawberry Milk) 

My dearest housemate Laura moves out on April 3rd. She’s getting married and moving to Colorado. Very exciting yet very very sad. Not only because our rent is going up either… She’s so so fun and we’re going to miss her so so much! On Saturday we are going to the Shatto Milk Farm for her going away er…party? If you don’t know about Shatto Milk you shall visit me and I will open your eyes to milk! I’m sure there will be pictures posted soon. 

The happy news is Laura will be replaced by a new baby Offutt!  We will find out the gender the day Laura moves out!  How fitting!  

hmm…I got my monroe pierced. That’s new. 

Things I’m loving right now:
Horton Hears a Who
Sufjan Stevens (always)
The Gym
Jack Frost (From Slavery to Sonship)
Juice Plus

I have been on 5 flights in 3 months. As much as I love traveling, I’m home and ready to settle down for quite awhile. In fact, I don’t think I’ll be leaving again until June, when I go home to MD for a family vacation. I started to get really excited on the way home from Florida last night about just being home and being on my usual schedule. I do well with structure. I had lots of fun in Florida though. I was pretty busy working during the weekend but before and after I got to hang out with my family (who happened to be down there at the same time) and with Florida friends…mostly the Weeks’. Speaking of…how’s this for cute…


and not so much…

I’m on my way to Maryland at 5am tomorrow!  This is a blog to procrastinate packing…  

The past couple months I’ve had an overwhelming sense of peace about where I am right now in my life. Physically, emotionally, spiritually…  I’ve been feeling more and more at home here in Kansas City.  More settled.  I feel like I have two homes now. 

I don’t know if I’ve taken the time to tell all five people who read this that I have the best housemates in the entire world.  Well, I do.  I’ve learned a lot about Godly community the past few years.  However, the past three months I’ve settled into a few relationships I’ve worked on for years and they’re just very…comfortable…I guess.  I think we’re touching what it means to dwell in unity. 

Behold, how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!  Psalm 133:1

I haven’t been posting about much lately…I don’t know what’s going on.  I have a bunch of half finished blogs saved.  I’ve been pretty contemplative this past month.  I guess sometime soon I’ll verbally throw up on you guys….

My car broke down. That was awesome. If you happen to have one of these laying around…

…and know how to install it into a ‘97 Acura 2.2 CL…that would be nice.

Apparently it’s going to cost me close to a thousand dollars. I don’t deal with car stuff very well. My car broke down on Saturday night and since then I’ve been laying in the fetal position on my bed. A coworker actually got his mechanic father to call me about it. I’m so pathetic. I can’t wait until I have to figure out how to get it to the mechanic tomorrow morning…man just talking about this makes me want to go to sleep and sleep and sleep until some man who knows how to fix cars comes and marries me.

We had Thanksgiving at the Offutt/Adomanis/Brewster household this year. I’ve never been away for Thanksgiving…which was sad. Luckly I have the best friends in the entire world. I made Apple Pie. It was delicious.

I’m coming home soon (Dec 19th). I’m very excited about it. I don’t really know what else to say. I’m just very very excited. I’m going to wear sweats and hang out at my parents house and play cards the whole time.

So life has been a little crazy since I got home from Florida. By crazy I mean I’ve been laying in the fetal position on my bed. Things will be normal on Monday…I hope…I think Roni is starting to worry…

oh I do have a lot to talk about though…I know everyone is excited about that. At least the two people who read this nonsense…and I’m pretty sure those two people share my last name (plus Bill P). Well…Colin too. I’m not sure if he’ll read this one though…there’s nothing for him to disagree with. I’m just kidddding. I’ve officially entered into the craziness of 3am.

Love!

(send money)

Go see Bella if it is playing near you. It is the best movie of the year. Hands down.

Florida was great!The Eleven Conference was amazing. I got to spend a lot of time in the little prayer room there, “the furnace”. The Lord really touched me in that little room. I’m so proud of Lee Weeks and the others being faithful in the place of prayer when it isn’t popular and isn’t easy.Allen Hood brought it. I’m in awe of the spiritual leadership I have over my life right now. I’m so thankful. Sometimes I just want to go up and squeeze Allen or Mike Bickle or any one of the many teachers and preachers that I get to enjoy on a regular basis. I’ve never met a more humble group of people in my life. They live for the glory of God, not man, and I appreciate that more than anything. So as much as I enjoyed my time in FL…especially the beautiful weather…I love being home. I realize when I’m gone how much I love and miss the prayer room. I’m even willing to live in freezing cold weather…and that says something.go here:to listen to the whole conference online. Message 1, 3 (part 1 & 2) and “the Mercy of the Father” (skip to the 30 minute mark) are Allen Hood. Everyone needs to listen to them…right now. Go. They are possibly the best sermons ever.It was awesome being able to be with some of my favorite people for the past few days. I can’t even begin to go into all of the little adventures. All I can say is I’m very happy that I get to see them all again in less than two months. It’s really sad…the camera was forgotten, hopefully I’ll be able to steal some pics from friends.It’s time for me to get back to work…go listen to those sermons!GO!

coming in the next few months…

1. I’m going to Ft Lauderdale Florida November 1-6 for the Eleven Conference.

For those of you who don’t know…I was t h i s close to moving to South Florida in September to be a part of The Harbour Church and the prayer room they’re starting up. Some of my favorite people live there. It wasn’t the timing of the Lord though. However, I am very excited to visit and be a part of this conference.

2. I’ll being coming home for Christmas! December 19-26th. I’ve been missing my family and friends back home very much and can’t wait to see everyone. It won’t be a long visit though because I have to get back here for…

3.

I hear there’s a troop coming from MD for the conference. We have an abundant amount of floor space and I’m willing to share my bed with…Anna. Its gonna be fun! It’s gonna be cold! It’s gonna be on my 24th birthday! That’s right, if you don’t come…well you’re just not a true friend.

4. Shannon O’Leary is getting married!

January 2nd I’ll be heading BACK to Ft Lauderdale to be in her wedding on January 5th! woot! Man, I’m going to be broke…

5. January 28th-May 9th I will begin my intership with Intro to IHOP (which you can read about here). I’ve been praying about it for awhile and for the first time in the 10 months I’ve lived here, feel not only peace about the decision, but I actually have a lot of desire to do it. Those months are going to be pretty intense financially. The schedule is crazy and I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to hold a job during this time. However, I will be able to raise support and I will most likely continue to assist Corey. Please pray for me. For the Lord to send support and for the peace of God to rest on me as I learn to lean on Him as my Supporter.

6. I’m seeking the Lord about what happens after Intro is over…there are a few possibilities and dreams swimming in my head but I’ll wait until the Lord gives further directions to speak them.

So I’ve been violently ill for the past week. I went to the emergency room on Sunday and found out I’m completely healthy. hmm… The doctor said I may have slight inflamation of my colon…but nothing I shouldn’t just sleep off. He gave me hardcore pain meds (which didn’t help at all) and sent me home. I felt like I was trying to digest glass. I don’t know if I’ve ever been in more pain in my life. Good news though…I went to the healing rooms here at IHOP and was miraculously healed on Thursday! I should say 98% healed. I seem to still have a little residual stuff going on… anyway, this healing has me thinking a lot about the supernatural…expect a blog this week about it.
