Crazy times
It's funny how 2+ weeks without a post slip by so quickly.
As with everyone else I am having a busy Christmas season. Things at work have picked up and so I am having to get myself in gear. This is taking a bit longer than it should because it has been fairly slow for the last couple of years and I have not had to push myself. This is no longer the case. There are good and bad things about both.
It looks like my move is finally happening. The couple that were living in the parsonage have put a deposit on a place and are going to start moving immediately. So it looks like I will move in the next 30 days or so. This is something that has not really sunk in. As I was telling a friend the other night I think it is because I did not set out to move, rather this move was brought to me. I must say I am excited about the no rent thing.
This is going to be a busy weekend. Tonight Tara and I are going to a party at one of her friends homes. It sounds like it is going to be a fairly low key affair. Tomorrow we are going shopping. I know that the mall is going to be crazy busy but if I just accept that and have it as my mindset I can deal with it. I am actually anxious to get some stuff bought. I am not quite half way done with my list so I am hoping to get most of it wrapped up tomorrow. Tomorrow night we have my company party. Dinner at the restaraunt next door and then a hockey game. Should be fun. I am not one who cares too much if we have a party, I would be happier with $150 check, but I will go and have a good time. Sunday there is the usual church stuff and we are also having the angel tree party Sunday night for the familes we purchased gifts for. This is a really cool program, we buy gifts for kids who have a parent in prison. For me this brings to life the fact that there are consequences for our actions that affect other people in our lives.
Next week is going to be my last 5 day week for a couple of weeks. I am looking forward to that. Of course I will be spending a lot of time working for my mom before Christmas but at least it is a change of pace. What a way to spend vacation time. Work 10 or 12 hour shifts at a flower shop. You've got to love family owned businesses.
This past Tuesday marked the end of the Tuesday night class I was taking on "Intro to Theology". It was an awesome class and I really liked it and developed a new intrest in some things that I want to read more about. On the other hand I am really looking forward to having Tuesday nights free again. I mentioned this to Jay and he knew just what I was talking about.
Well that is about it. Not a lot going on, no profound thoughts inside my head at this point.
Andrew- If you read this before you leave I am looking forward to seeing you this weekend. We have got to get together before you fly off to the tropics of Hawai'i.
Also, as Tara and I were talking about a few nights ago I have not said I love you to her in front of anyone else. I have said it in private but for some reason not anywhere else so I want to take this oppurtunity in front of the entire cyberspace community to say, "I love you, Tara"
Now go puke amongst yourselves.
