Ramblings

Sunday, February 13, 2005

So I'm taking a break from the Purpose Driven Life to read Stalking the Divine. It's a good book so far. I'm reading it because a church book reading group chose this book and a lady asked if I'd like to read it for the March 3rd meeting. I enjoy imagining what it would be like to be a nun. I was definitely not called to lead that life, but I think of the Sound of Music and wonder what leading a life of quiet, prayerful service would be like! I had a guy ask me if I'd thought about being a nun once. That was kinda weird, but it was during a period of my life when I wasn't dating anyone and had been on a retreat or two in a catholic setting. I have always known that I wanted a family and so being a nun never really stuck as a realistic occupation.

I subbed three half-days during out of the last six school days. This week I'm going to take a break I think. I subbed ESL, French and Band. I enjoy subbing in subjects I feel competent in! I bragged about my sister Allison to the middle school band students telling them that she's in the Oregon Crusaders. None of them had heard about it, but maybe they will someday.

I'm about to start my own business. It's with the Shaklee company. A friend of mine, Kelly Hribar, a fellow study-abroad classmate in Lyon, France, told me about it and I've checked it out... I think I can do it. It'll be a little extra income (hopefully) selling everyday products. I may even get a paycheck just by buying shampoo and detergents for our own use. So if anyone out there is interested, check out the link and maybe we can all earn a little extra income. Who knows? For a $20 start fee, there's not much to lose.

On another note, I was liturgist at church today... I wasn't expecting to read so much when I originally signed up, but then again, I didn't realize it was the first Sunday of Lent when I was recruited. Oh well... I did fine.
