This and That

Haven't posted for a while...here are a few tidbits to catch everyone up.

-Spent the day in Chicago yesterday; enjoyed a 5 hour drive home...there was a major accident and all lanes on 55 were blocked. Took a detour and was a bit confused, but I made it just fine and felt quite grown up.
-In the midst of making some decisions right now; trying to trust God but be wise and practical at the same time. How do you balance that?
-Enjoying the YMCA; I have been inspired by Angie's and Ricki's workout stories. Perhaps I will share some of those someday. They include creepy staring guys and sorority girls.
-Really enjoying the light class load this semester. Come on, art in the el. ed. classroom?! I know it might be tough to jump back in again next fall, but this is just grand.
-Got a lot going on in the next few months. Trying to figure out some scheduling issues and that lovely 3 hour drive back to Quincy.
-Summer plans are well under way; some may have to be altered, but we'll see.
-Completely addicted to the show LOST right now. My roommate and I have almost polished off the entire first season. You must know that we just started it on Sunday...
-Got a new job here babysitting for an infant. He is adorable. Quite the contrast from my time with Sammy. Don't get me wrong, Sammy is adorable, but the experiences are quite the extremes.
-Missing some long distant friends and family. Counting the days until the gap is smaller.
-God is good. God is faithful. Trying to lean on those truths.

Do you now feel caught up and in the know? Sorry it has been so long!

Almost passed you by this morning in my link checks...glad you're back. Are you still watching Sammy? I'd say enjoying a lighter schedule is awesome. You haven't had one of those in, what, 8 years or so???

Praying for you in general. Email me some specifics and I'll add my voice :)
