Once upon a time in the kingdom of Aquatread...
I may be a hunchback by mid-term from all the books

Well.......................I've been away for awhile. Away from JU anyway. And away from home alot, too. That's not really going to change any time soon, but I decided that since I hadn't posted anything in a month and a half, I ought to let people know I'm still alive. When last I wrote I spoke of the performance of Handel's Messiah and the weeks leading up to it. I may still fill in the blanks between then and now, but for now I'm not in a hurry to do it. Christmas is over, New Year's is past, and school has started. My first day of classes was last Wednesday, and I wasn't sure until the week before that I would be able to afford it. I just trusted that if this was what I was supposed to be doing now, somehow God would work it out. It's kind of working out.

Coming home from school Friday, I was telling SPC Nbs about projects, assignments, and repertoire for the semester, complaining a little, I admit. His response? Poor baby, you thought you were going to be able to just jump right back into the most difficult part of school................... Grrrrrr................well, okay, so he's right. I'm having to remember things that I haven't studied for 5 years in order to have a clue as to what's going on now. I hope and pray I can get through this well, as I can't afford to screw up any more.

With classes 3 days a week, work another 3 days a week, and Sundays for church stuff, plus all of the voice and flute practice I'm supposed to be getting in, it's going to be interesting. I will be around, though, and will try to update when my brain isn't fried and I can think straight.

And congratulations to SPC Nbs for his first 30K race yesterday!

Glad to see you are back. I know that going back to school is rough and I dread the day, but I'm proud of you for knocking this out. I know you can do it and if you are ever overwhelmed come on over to my place and destress here. If nothing else, I make a mean pan of brownies and I have a good listening ear.

PS congrats SPC NBS!

Thanks for the warm wishes and the offer of brownies. I may have to take you up on that. My first exam is in the morning, and I haven't gotten any of my homework done yet because I was at work for almost 3 hours later than I was supposed to be. And I had to take a little time to unwind and check JU and my email before I put my nose back to the grindstone.

I'll drop you a line soon!
