Christmas prep
Dec. 8th, 2005 08:44 amWell, I want birthday gift shopping for Christie's birthday (today) and my dad's birthday (tomorrow). I still need to make a cheesecake for my dad's birthday, though--that will have to wait until tonight, though, I think, after we've celebrated Christie's birthday.:-D
And then my mom's birthday is on the 14th and you can be fairly certain that my Christmas shopping won't begin until after her birthday. I should at least think about doing Christmas cards, though. I did buy a bunch! Does that count for anything? Every year, I promise myself that I'll be on top of all this...but it never seems to happen. I feel accomplished just for getting gifts before the occasions on which I am supposed to give them.
I don't know what's up with canceling school here in town for a few snowflakes. That's just silly.:-D But I'm sure all school kids are excited, so I'll be happy for them. :-) And I'll go out where I was planning to go in any case...
You know, I'm going to have to go back to school sometime soon, I'm afraid...see, my brain has begun whirling again and I find myself thinking about the oddest things just to have something going on in there. I am concerned that my sanity might leave if I keep thinking about these things...;-) Nursing school is still in my plans, although I'd like to get an undergraduate degree in English at some point and I think I'd like to go to law school. Of course, seminary is another possibility that I've considered. Just when I think I must have the narrowest interests ever...I realize that even my narrow interests provide several options for my future. The real issue is to figure out which one would be most pleasing to the Lord. And, much as you may ask about my enjoyment, that answer is impossible for me to give--my feelings on all of those things are pretty equal. I've always wanted to be a teacher/counselor and each of those educational options would provide me with the means to fulfill that desire in some way.
So...anyway...that's a little of what's on my mind today.:-D I hope you all are doing well.
