Two weeks from today..

I should have been in Spain already (the contract was from Oct. 2010-May 2011), but due to Visa processing and serious delay in receiving necessary paperwork (good job, Spain), I will be starting January instead. Now while this was very frustrating at the time, I see now that it all was meant to happen this way.  I was able to get a long term ESL sub position from Oct-Dec here in Gahanna, and most importantly, I will be spending Christmas with my family.  Yes, it would have been cool to experience Christmas in a different country, but I feel so thankful to be home during this time.  This was very clear to me as I helped my mom finish decorating the tree and bake Christmas cookies yesterday.  Spend Christmas with my amazing family, then go on my adventure to Spain. Life is good...

Now if only my suitcases would pack themselves...
