leaving, christmas and paint

So it's already Wednesday and it's already December 1st. Where has the time gone. I am sad that time has gone so fast. That means that I only have 242 more days of working at Peace. WOW! I cannot handle that. I do NOT want to leave. This has truly been like my home away from home. I feel like such a part of things. I do NOT want to go...sorry...I'm gonna cry...*sniff* *sniff*. I love you all at Peace, you are all part of my family now and I'll never forget these two awesome years. Let's make the best of these 242 days!

So anyway, got lots to do this week. And it's Boar's Head week. How awesome. I am not in the Boar's Head this year, but I get to help supervise in the youth room two nights. Greg and I with Jen and Eric are going to watch it on Sunday afternoon. I've never seen it so I'm excited! I was the inn keeper last year so I was on "stage" for the last ten minutes and that's all I saw. But I hear it's really good. Tonight we have confirmation and my head is pounding just thinking about it. It's not the kids...they're good for the most part. I just get this crazy anxiety before I have to teach, like what if I don't teach them anything and what if they hate me...and stuff like that. I know it's silly but I can't help it! Advent five fifty-five is tonight as well. Should be interesting. Nothing like doing everything at the last minute...oh well!

Oh yeah, one more thing. When I came home on Saturday I felt the need to paint. So on Sunday night I started my masterpiece...First of all I did some decorating and cleaning in our downstairs bedrooom cuz we're having guests this month! Julie is coming this weekend and maybe Chad. And then Greg's whole family will be here for Christmas. So back to the painting. I painted the wall in our basement bathroom. What did I paint you ask? I painted the sky from Starry Starry Night by Van Gogh. It looks cool and is just my interpretation but I like it. I will post a picture when I get them developed.

Thanksgiving and Christmas (with my family) were awesome. It was a great vacation. I am sorry that I didn't get to see everyone I wanted to. A week is not long enough. So Heather and Susan and anyone else Imissed sorry. Have a great week in the Lord and know that you are loved!
