i don't like receiving emails titled "update" and i'm getting too many of them lately from too many different people. i don't really know what to say at this point without things sounding morbidly depressed mostly because not getting these emails is potentially worse than receiving them. anyways - that's all i've got - is it any surprise that i'm feeling anti-social lately.

praying for you em...

update:

thanks to james - kenya planning has been brought up to date and is no longer overwhelming.
thanks to jennie - the dishes are done (and the floor is clean)
thanks to me - my room is still a mess -however we have decorated cupcakes
thanks to God - it is still -22 -- has actually moved on to -23
thanks to peachtree tv - the friends marathon continues - tho sadly they started repeating shows about 4 hours ago (yes i am still watching)
thanks to that little girl at church - my day is still made.

life is good.

so i was sitting down in church today when a little girl came and sat beside me and started talking... her name was either ashley or ellie - she was either 5 or pretending to be - and her dad was the pastor --- that part i know was true... anyways - she made my morning (or i guess afternoon as church starts at 2). it was like she came in - looked around - and decided that we were gonna be friends for the moning...
in other news - today is a friends marathon... which isn't helping with the work getting done - but i love it :)
kenya planning is becoming overwhelming
the dishes are piling up
my room is getting messier
it is -22 degrees outside
but i could stay like this for a while and be ok...
eventually the stories in my head will be written down and i will become a millionare
eventually i will have time to sit at the piano and sing my little heart out again
eventually i will be done all of this work and i will be able to take a short breather
but more importantly...
today a little girl came and sat beside me in church.

december already! considering that every day in september took about 3 years to get through - october and november sped by at the speed of light. there is an insane amount of homework that needs to be finished today - and of course i ran out of black ink - which i didn't know until AFTER i got home from the mall today. so perhaps i'll walk back in a bit.
i'm very weepy lately it's odd.probably all the pent up frustration with all this work that isn't getting done...
bah - despite this - life is good. spent a couple hours with joanna and pat in the library working on our spec ed 'movie' - we were much more effective at playing MASH and remembering how to use the cootie catcher - Pat is married to half the girls in our class now... but oddly has really good luck haha.
oh good - it's only -7. time to put on the long johns and the new winter boots and walk to the walmart to go buy some ink :)
