Sitting here...watching the clock...waiting...

Today I am answering the phones at the church. I'm a little concerned that I'm not hearing the phone, because I've only answered it twice since I've gotten here, and both times there were other people here to tell me it was ringing. It is so quiet and I am quite distracted from the phone with my unlimited internet access. (My internet access is usually limited by time...I'm usually in Nathan's office after hours, but needing to go home to make supper or go to bed or something). So today, since 11:30, I've been here at the church, exploring the never-ending world of facebook, and am realizing how people no longer have time for their blogs. It is pretty addicting. BUT, I am not one to become addicted.

This past year, I've been surrounded by engagements and weddings and pregnancies and babies like never before. It is a bit overwhelming at times, but SO exciting too! I am so proud of all my friends who are entering new worlds of marriage and parenthood. I guess it is just that stage of life! So, this post is a congratulations to all those who have had exciting announcements in the past year (hopefully I won't miss anyone).
