Calm before the Storm?

Tomorrow is the first day of classes. I'm so ready and excited! Yesterday was filled with academic orientation type things and trying to iron out some kinks in my schedule. I am now taking two night courses this semester. That should be interesting, but I'm really forward to it.

Last night we had a square dance and it was a great time to visit and enjoy an activity with new friends. I have yet to really be homesick, although I have had times of really missing my little ones. And honestly, I have certainly missed my mom lots and the rest of my family, but it has not been unbearable by any means. I am kind of waiting to see if or when the big hit will happen. I don't know if its better or worse to happen now or later. At any rate, I'm very happy to be stable and content at this time. There's a lot of transitioning going on for me and a lot of others around me and I'm sure this is the calm before the storm, but I'm so grateful for all the places where I can clearly see how God has prepared me for where I am now.

This year, i am working for the volleyball team at school as part of my student-aid and this afternoon is my first volleyball event. We'll see how it goes. As for now, Mia and I are off to the gym!
