As my life is highly chaotic now, I’m not going to be posting a lot. I have a house to pack up, an ordination to help with, moving vans to arrange… As I’m feeling frenzied right now, I thought I’d list the good things that have happed to me and in the world lately as a reminder that there is good in everything.
In My Life
Adopting Freya and Edda (especially since I now have new office “help” to relieve Finian when he has “appointments” :))
Spending Thanksgiving with a family from my church and getting to experience for the second time what Thanksgiving is like to those who actually live close to their extended families
Jon getting the call to serve two churches in Madison, Minnesota. (If you want to be on THE LIST of people who get my new RL contact info, email me.)
Getting to sing in the community Lessons and Carols service in a week
My parents and brother making plans (along with Jon’s parents) to come to the ordination
My brother Sean agreeing to stay on to help us move
My father-in-law’s mechanic finding a spare lens for our headlight (that got shattered when some idiot blew a stop sign and hit us a few weeks ago and then convinced us that the damage wasn’t enough to file a claim) and offering to ship it to us so that I could install it and pass my license test (God willing)
Getting to see my extended family at Christmas
In the world
Community Thanksgiving services (like the one I attended on Wednesday night)
Bush’s surprise visit to the troops (yes… I praised something Dubya did — you may commence picking your jaws up off the floor) this has been struck out because the trukey is plastic and he brought photographers
UW beat WSU last weekend
Advent starting this Sunday
God is in control

came to see if you’d mentioned the trip to iraq. yeah, i thought it was cool no matter which side you fell on politically. but my diehard-everything-republican-is-bad grandmother just looked at it and said, “sht” (she cusses without vowels – very funny).
*jaw drops*
lol. go jen for being fair and balanced! š
God is in control. Yeah, God!
I thought it was cool of him to go too:)
