From November to January...

So I finally decided to sit down and recap on my blog only to realize that it has been TWO MONTHS since my last entry. Wow! How do you recap that?

Mom and I celebrated an "alternative" holiday season (my craisin and pear stuffed porkloin replaced the traditional turkey dinner at Thanksgiving and serving at a soup kitchen on Christmas Day). I went home for both holidays and this was the first time that I really felt excited to come back to Louisiana; it is finally becoming home to me.

Meanwhile back in Louisiana, things in my life started breaking down. In one week my cell phone, computer and car all had issues. Praise God, I was blessed with a new cell phone. My computer is done for but this great guy I know got all of my documents and information off of it so it was not a huge loss. My car started having trouble and long story short without going into too much detail, my 2002 Nissan Altima, more commonly known as Cool Runnings, has died for good. The motor is no longer running... but thanks to the generosity and kindness of my friends I have nothing to complain about (all my rides have been provided).

2006 came and went and 2007 is already well underway. I brought in the new year at home in Pennsylvania with my mom and best friend Jennifer Reidy(pictures will follow...eventually) and came back to Baton Rouge to start my second semester in the Elevate Internship.

Elevate has been going incredibly and I am learning tons. I definitely enjoy full time ministry and am excited for all that God has in store this year.

Two months passed and yet there is not that much to talk about. Life is good, God is great and let's just say love is in the air.
