Life is difficult!
I just got done with a meeting with Dad and Maddie to run the numbers for school this year. Ugh. I'm so thankful that this is my last year mooching off the banks, the school and my parents to complete my "higher" education. By that, of course, they mean higher costs. Like Maddie said tonight, the fact that we have to pay thousands of dollars per semester to get the education that's required in most jobs is ludicrous. But after this year I'll be free! Free to pay back everyone I've borrowed from. :-)
And after multiple disappointments on the housing front, we MAY have got a place. I don't want to say that we HAVE a place, even though we put the signed lease in the mail today, because we've been so close several times, and it's only ended in house heartbreak. Updates will follow.
Meanwhile, I've been spending my days painting Dad's house. It took me all of last week to scrape and sand the place, and since Monday I've been priming, and I STILL haven't gotten to the second coat. I need to finish the place before the 15th when Sarah and I start out on our Westward! roadtrip!
AND! I've got Vacation Bible School next week! A whole week of hanging out with kindergartners! We get to make crafts and play on the playground and listen to bible stories and sing songs! It's great every single year.
So anyway, painting, VBS, housing, school, money. Life.
And yet I feel like I'm waiting for things to begin.
