Deadlines, Demands, ... and all of that wonderful stuff!

Yippeeeeeeee! I have a class to teach!
I'm going to start teaching English to a group of Latino women who are here because they have husbands who work in the oil industry.
To have deadlines, to have people expecting me to produce results, to have expectations upon me, to have weekly demands for creativity and new ideas ... this is truly a wonderful way to live!
Yippppppppeeeeeeeeeeee!
Plus, it's a way to connect with some women. Considering the fact that in the past three months I've had very little human contact (except for our trip to the U.S.!) ... this is a very good thing!
Yippppppppeeeeeeeeeeee!

A small child on Christmas Eve. That best describes my wife at the moment. You'd think she was created for teaching or something.

I am seriously so happy for you! I don't believe you were shaped by God to sit!

P-i-A, it took me awhile to figure out who your are ...! :-)

Zona, thanks! I am reminded of the line in an Igbo song we learned in Nigeria -- "e-a de we mah!" "Tings are gettun bettuh!"
