time flew

Well it's sure been a while. Friends have come and gone, projects have been handed in, babysitting hours have been clocked, boxes are being packed, and I have been slowly fading into exhaustion. In two weeks, I fly out to Nashville; before then I have to take a final, read a few books, and write about them. I also have to pack, babysit, and figure out details like health insurance.
A few highlights from the past few weeks:

• Many many road miles and hours and laughter attacks spent with friends from home. Good times.
• A visit to The Bridge Communities, a church I fell in love with, a place where I finally was able to engage with God again. And be reminded of what it really is that stirs my heart. Amazing.
• Reading Anne Lamott's book on writing, Bird By Bird - it's reconnecting me to my desire for writing. Very inspiring.

It's good to be in places that are "you" - whether it's the people you're with, the church you go to, the books you're reading, or anything else, really. I pray for more little moments like these in the months to come.
