DONE!

I finished up the fall semester last night at 11:45 p.m. I am so glad to be done with it...I learned more about the environment than I ever cared to know, even went on a private tour of the waste water treatment plant in Pella...how special is that? I learned about different mental health theories and treatments and all about abnormal psychology...watch out...I may be diagnosing you all this week!

I don't know why this semester was so hard. Maybe it was the newish job. Maybe it was I got off on the wrong foot on a couple of my classes. Maybe I'm just getting tired. Now the struggle is to figure out how I'm going to make the next year work out. I've taken all the online classes I can and almost all of the Newton campus classes. So now my choices are day classes in Des Moines or twice a week to Newton in the middle of winter. Neither sound good to me. Maybe after a few days they will look better to me. I would appreciate your prayers as I try to figure this all out.

Can't wait to do the tour of homes on Friday night with my sisters. Joy has 5 trees. I have 5 nativities. What do you have 5 of at Christmas time??
