Canada Post came through. A friend of mine sent an ExpressPost package but flipped the numbers in my address around. It made it to my house on time (next day guaranteed) with a scribbled note of "try ..... instead." Pretty amazing in my mind.
I may have found a church to attend. Not that churches are difficult to find; most are well-signed and some have webpages. I'm a little indifferent but have decided to tag along with some friends and rediscover my ethnocultural heritage. This mennogirl will no longer be a mennogirl in baptist clothing.
Shopping is done. At least my fair share of the consumerism for this holiday. I like giving gifts ... even the ones you agonize over and then spend an hour in line waiting to purchase. Must move on to the wrapping.
In addition to spending money on others, I have sort of spent some on myself. As you can see, I'm off to Africa in 43 more sleeps. The travel details are all in place. I am taking a couple of days at the end to recuperate and I just booked the hotel for that. (If you want to know more about what I will be doing, send me an email or leave a comment. Email can be found in the "About me" section: link at top right.) I am so excited to head back. Will update more in the near future.
