Merry Christmas 2003! This year has been a strange one for me. It has strangely felt not like Christmas at all, although I must admit that it was nice to not have to work for a couple days. I am exhausted, and at an emotional climax. I have been running full steam trying to get everything done in the last few weeks, and not allowing myself any time to just be and feel. I have not cried for weeks (and for any of my fellow Jesus Schoolers, you will know how major that is!).
Tonight I had a really good chat with my good friend Tanya, who also happens to be my cousin. And now I feel like bawling. I'm cracking at the seams, but I think I prefer it right now, at least over trying to keep it all together. God is still trying to teach me that lesson I began to learn in Jesus School - to let Him be my strength and covering.
Tomorrow I'm flying out to the West Coast for the JDS Reunion. Should be refreshing. I am looking forward to it, but kinda sad too, because I'll miss everyone here. Oh well, that's life I guess.
Happy holidays!
Cha.
