Wow it's almost been two months since I've posted on my blog. No excuses, but really it's hard to get online just for fun these days when we don't have internet at home. Teddy and I made that decision so we would have less distractions at home and more time for 'us-let's-sit-down-and-talk-about-our-day' time. But, once I'm at the office where there is internet, well the pressures of school and work and deadlines take over and usually the last thing I can think of is getting onto blogspot or myspace! So that is my catch-22, my dilemma. We like not having internet or cable at home, yet it brings with it other unwanted complications.

So where do I start?? Christmas vacation? In short, we went to Solvang for a short while on our way to GYC in San Jose, followed by a trip to Lake Tahoe with friends and a couple days of skiing. For me, it was a refresher course since it has been forever since I skiied. When we got back it was straight back to work, and then more skiing that weekend. Teddy and I found some killer deals on skis and a snowboard (for him) so now we'll be going more often! Anybody up for a day at the slopes?

Besides a little fun here and there, I've been hard at work, we usually leave the house by 6:30 or thereabouts and hit the gym, then head to work at 9am. I have a couple of hours in the middle of the day to study, then back to work until 9pm. We usually aren't back home until 9:30 or later. Weekends are blessed times I'll tell you what!

So I'm so excited I am looking for a piano now! We feel like we can finally afford one, so I'm hitting up craigslist with ferocious energy. I really want a black baby grand, but we'll see...

God has been doing some awesome things in my life, but that is for another time.
Until next time!

Susie!
Thanks for the comment on my post. I did notice that you hadn't posted anything in a while, and kept hoping that you would. Glad you finally did. Hey, that's awesome that you and Teddy don't have internet at home for now. That took guts! And I wish I had the guts to work out at the gym at 6 in the morning. You guys are crazy busy.
I had such a good time talking to you the other night(and a few minutes ago), BTW. I'm sooo glad my post resounded with you. I'm so glad that you might get a piano. I'm so glad you're at the cutting edge of God's work... I'm so glad you're my sister! I don't tell you that often enough.
But hey,I'll be praying for you tonight especially! Please keep me updated.
