A Day in My Life

Marry Christmas everyone! Obviously I’m a day early, but who wants to post on Christmas anyway? Alas, I am one of the people that has to work on Christmas Eve. It is extremely boring around here today. There was something to do for about one hour so far, and since then, nothing. Thankfully I am leaving early today so I am not late to church this afternoon. This Christmas, I volunteered to be in our Christmas Eve choir. This is the first time in my life I’ve been in a real choir. It is quite fun. And just so I don’t feel that out of place, I am playing the trumpet on one of the songs. I still can’t get over the fact that I’m singing in a choir.

Bethany has been sick the last couple of days. She was suppose to work yesterday and today. Since all of her patients have no immune systems, it is good that she didn’t go in. On one hand, it is no fun to be sick. But on the other, she is able to go to church with me tonight. It would have been pretty depressing to have to go to the Christmas Eve service alone tonight. So I am grateful for that. I just hope she gets better soon.

We are heading done to Bethany’s sister’s house in south-western MN on Friday for two nights. Her parents and her other sister from St. Louis will also be there so it will be one full house. What is really exciting is that her oldest sister just had her baby a couple weeks ago so we get to see little baby Abram for the first time. That should be a great time. In my opinion, five kids is just a couple too many for me. Wait wait wait, one would be too many for me right now!

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and hope that Santa is good to you all this year!
