Busyness...What a busy week! There was a Bible conference at our church, I was studying for the Humanities CLEP test, we babysat three days this week,and now...I'm tired. Oh, yeah, and I'm getting ready to co-teach a Sunday School class with a friend, and we both have colds and croaky voices. Oh, dear.Plus, school starts on Monday! Of course, that doesn't really affect me, since I've graduated and have been doing CLEP tests all summer. I rather miss that sense of "beginning" -- the clean smell of new school books, the careful scheduling of every subject I'm working on. My school books are used and my year is pretty well planned out already; I feel like I'm in the middle of a school year instead of at the beginning. Accelerated distance learning is a different experience. I've already gotten 18 college credits, and that's just since June. I love the "work at your own pace" style, and it's nice to be able to chose what classes I want to take. Of course, it takes work. Lots of it. And it's interesting to see the reactions I get from people. They're similar to the reactions we get as homeschoolers -- you know, "Does that count? How does that work?" What's very funny to me is hearing homeschoolers ask those questions. Sure it works -- isn't that how you're getting your regular education? I'm doing the same thing, just at the college level. Okay, returning from my tangent, I am thankful for busyness. But I'm also thankful for quietness and being still. And after this hectic week, and a mind that is bouncing all over the place (can't you tell?) I think I need to go imitate Mary....leave the unimportant, sit before the Most Important, and listen. :) Leave a Comment { Last Page } { Page 4 of 57 } { Next Page } |
