So Far So Good

So far I've stuck to my picture a day. I'll have to do a photo upload next week. Over the holidays I was so lazy. The most work I did was snow shoe one day, and work on the boat. I drilled holes in all of the frames and helped put in a few of the frames as well. It was extremely satisfying work. I can't wait for the summer. Although when I move onto the boat it will mean that Kenya is over. This is a big year.
We went downtown yesterday and strolled around for hours. We had coffee at Sitka, then went down to their old store and found a few good deals. New jeans for W and two shirts for me for less than the original price of one of my shirts. Gotta love closing down sales. I also bought myself a travel journal to plan and organize my trip.
We had a relaxing night and tried to go to bed early to be rested for today. However, that was not easy. I rolled around for hours. This morning was pretty hilarious. We had to do dance. Good thing we all know each other all ready.
We did our secret santa gift exchange today before Literacy. Kristen had me and gave me a gift card to Staples to get supplies for the students in Kenya. So sweet. Jayne got a travel journal! Our cohort is so great.
I've decided to begin free writing again. Being in Literacy this afternoon made me miss the one English class that I dropped. I was thinking about how we did free writing on cabbage, and I actually really liked what I wrote.
It feels so great to be back at school. I love my cohort, and my classes. It's where I feel content. This weekend we are off to Vancouver, where I will hopefully get some fantastic donations. Perhaps Polaroid? Oh, I'd be in heaven.
