A Needed Time Out

I'm back in Caronport this week for the Thanksgiving weekend, but that isn't my only reason for being at home. As a lot of you know, my week home between camp ending and uni beginning was not exactly stress free. My stress level carried over into my first month in Winnipeg with uni. It has not been an easy adjustment to being back there at all (to say it simply). So, i've been pretty sick this last month and in short, i'm feeling pretty rundown and exhausted physically, emotionally, mentally and yes even spiritually. My time at home is suppose to be a relax time and also some intrapersonal reflecting time. I have a lot of big descisions to make over the next 2 months that do affect more than just me, and i'm really not looking forward to it. Please pray for me in general over the next little while.
I am going to admit that eventhough i am back in caronport, it is quite nice to be back here and just "be". My dad and I had one of our amazing father/daughter chats in his office this afternoon. We talk about all sorts of stuff that pertains to my life and his life...they are not the same over the phone! And then this evening, it was the return of the NHL finally, and we have been watching that together a bit (our favourite team is playing tonight - the Vancouver Canucks). So, this day has been good. However, my pastor's wife saw me in the hall today at the college and told me i looked exhausted and that i needed to take it easy and go home for a nap. I haven't seen her in over a month and she tells me i look terrible....great....oh well, i knew the truth before hand. That is one of the reasons why i am home!!
Well, it is getting late and i need some sleep....all part of my taking it easy strategy. I think i'll watch some Fraggle Rock on my laptop and fall asleep to that.
