Encamped Along the Hills of Light

I have finished the second run through of my data for my paper. I am in crunch mode, and it is too early in the semester for this. Hopefully the end of the semester will be more relaxed. I have 2 big things that need to be done in the next few weeks, and yesterday I was in complete panic/stress/freak out mode. It was not fun. I am feeling better, but I am still frustrated with myself, as I should be more together than I am. I can't wait until I have a real job and no homework. I know life will still be life: complicated, but hopefully in a different way. I really enjoyed having a real job and a life. It was easier. Now, I have school, work, and life, and it is hard to balance it all.

Last week, work was crazy, due to the ice storm. The library was closed Tues. and Wed., and Monday and Thursday were insane, as people were preparing for the storm and then eager to get out of the house after the storm. The storm was worst Tuesday night. I was a bit nervous. We basically had a zombie attack, but we were safe in the apartment. There were popping noises outside that sounded almost like gunshots, and the wind was blowing branches and ice around and knocking on my bedroom window. The next morning when we walked to the bus, it looked like icicle pieces were all over the ground. Zombie fingers. But we survived. (And no, I do not actually believe in zombies. Just some joking to ease the nerves.)

I am leading Sunday school for the next 5 weeks or so, and I'm kind of excited. Logistics with the prayers requests and such still need to be ironed out, but hopefully it will all get squared away.

I would appreciate prayers for the next few weeks, as they will be rather crazy, but I hope it will all go well and get done.
