Growing Gills

so you know the phrase, keeping your head above water? seems like if i'm going to make it to next wednesday - i might have to grow gills. because - well - keeping my head above water isn't an option anymore. i can't see the surface.

i'm still optimistic about getting everything taken care of at work and with youth group and with Christmas and with the house and all prior to leaving for the break - but my emotions are on the surface and i'm not treading water anymore.

Tom (youth pastor) called me tonight to see if i'd be interested in taking some youth kids out to shovel snow for the elderly on saturday and i nearly cried just in the asking... i'm not much of a crier - so i figure i really really need some sleep.

so with that - i'm going to bed an hour early. 'nite

ps - someone shoveled my driveway for me tonight. i'm so happy - i'm literally ready to cry. thanks whoever you are.

ps #2 - i'm excited about reading a book recommended by katie: "now, discover your strengths" sounds really cool. maybe i'll get a chance to read it over break?
