Merry Christmas to all of my faithful readers! This last month has been busy for me…probably for everyone…but Jackie’s brain is fried. There’s the whole Christmas thing to get ready for. But what’s killing me is school. I’ve been working on this exegesis paper and I’m learning that a counselling student probably shouldn’t pick this paper to do when she takes a theology class. I’m so sick of my counselling-type papers that I thought I’d try something new. I really have found that I enjoy the theology classes, and exegeting (still not sure if that’s a word) is actually really interesting to me. But I could have taken the easy road and just did a case study type paper instead. But nooooo had to try something new. So the stuff for this class is due on Jan. 7th. That’s a bad time to have a class due with Christmas all in between and everything.
Parents have been up since Friday night. I think/hope they go home tomorrow morning. That might sound like a terrible thing for me to say for those of you who live for family visiting. I love a one evening visit and then no more parents. This staying over for night after night gets a bit stressful for me. Don’t get me wrong, my parents are great. If they lived in the city we’d always be visiting with them, I’m sure of it. We have had some good times over the weekend, though, and now with Rhonda being part of the family it is even better. (Finally have a girl to hang out with besides my mom!) Jackie is just done with hosting right now…the introvert needs to recover!
Merry Christmas to you all. I hope you’re all having a great time with people you want to be with!!
