Sorry all that I've been out of the loop for a while; like since September. I'll spare you the gory details because, well, frankly, I'm tired of going through them over and over again in my head and talking about them. I will tell you this, there may possibly be a light at the end of the crap tunnel also known as my academic career at Luther Seminary. Again, I don't want to say too much because nothing may happen, but I think I may finally have found a guiding light in the form of a professor who I never thought to ask for help. Praise God for putting people right in front of us who are awesome in times of need.
I will also tell you that besides my academic nightmare, life is pretty fantastic. Jason and I are engaged and getting married September 4, 2010 at Richfield Lutheran Church, in Minnesota. I will be bugging all of you in the near future of addresses for save the date cards and invitation sending. Please feel free to flood my email or facebook inbox with your address anytime. The sooner the better. I even went out and bought an address book so I won't have to keep asking people for their addresses over and over again (sorry about that Anita and Veronica. And sadly, I think I may need you both to send me your addresses again, just in case.) Seriously, I'll get my act together someday.
Work wise things are going well. I'm looking for a part time job to supplement my office job. So far no call backs, but I'm trying to stay optimistic, if only to keep from crawling into a dark hole of despair. I've already done that in the past few months with my education, don't need to do it elsewhere in my life.
I'm heading out to Williamsburg, Virginia for Christmas to spend a few short days with my sister and her family. I think it has been over a year since I've seen my nephew and niece. I'm super excited! I'll finally have an updated picture of them that I can show off to people. YAY!!!
I am very excited about the future. Though I will still be in transition for a while, I am strangely (and completely out of character for me) optimistic about life. Hmmm...interesting how that happens sometimes.
Until next time...stay tuned.
