~Chores~

I finally put all the Christmas decorations away.  I had them boxed up and ready to go, but hadn't gone through the motions of pulling my bed apart to put them away yet.  It's a bit of an ordeal.  But that's why I store Christmas under the bed.  I only have to get them out once and put them away once :)

Christmas storage

Looks like my freezer needs to defrost :P  

I'll be gone for dinner tonight so I had to leave something in the fridge.  Usually I plate everything and they reheat the whole plate.  This time I made it a DIY meal of Chicken Gyros.  I put frozen (fully cooked) chicken strips in a bag, mixed greens in a bag and both those bags in a big ziplock with pita and a brownie.  In the fridge they will find Tzaziki and olives to add to their gyros.  I thought it was kind of fun. 

Also, Sarah's funeral is tonight.  attending the funeral of my students should really never be something I have to do.  I really dislike death.  Though I am thankful for the life we will live with God if we serve Him.  I am thankful that she is no longer in pain.  I'm thankful that I will see her again one day and that no tears will pass between us.  God's promises bring so much peace and I am so incredibly grateful for them and His presence right now.
