My vacation from work went well, and its over in two days, but that is okay. I desperately needed it. I got to see more of Georgia, and encourage a local church over there by helping out in their music ministry. I hope to continue to go over there on a yearly basis. Before I went, I lost one day of sleep from being extremely manic, and I lost two days of sleep before coming back home. My sleep is now caught up, and I am getting more disciplined where I need to go to bed early, so I can do my studies for school.

I start graduate school soon, and noticed that I have papers due every week as well as discussions. I'm going to be real busy. Thankfully, I passed my Geology class with a C, the highest of all my natural science classes (Had to take three for degree). I have one class left for my B.A. in Psychology, and am still working on my B.A. in Christian Education (5 classes left). God is so good! I am now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I have no idea if I am going to do my doctorate or not, but will see how the Masters program goes, and see where the Lord leads me. I sure could use your prayers as I finish up my schooling.

I see my general physican on Friday for a med. check. I am on Effexor XR, and it is working wonders on me, far better than St. John's Wort. I believe I will be put on a mood stabilizer for my high anxiety, and could be given sleeping medicine too. I'll let you know what happens.

Blessings to all of you, and a happy new year!
