Civil War Victory...

I just have to start out by saying that Oregon State finally won the Oregon/OregonState football civil war. Yes, I am rather thrilled about that! A bowl game in in the future for the Beavers, and oh, how sad, the Ducks are left to rot in Eugene for the rest of the season.

Ok, there's way more to life than football!

This week has been one huge blur.... I was in Redding for the beginning of the week visiting with my school friends. That was a total blessing and encouragement - I really needed that! Then back to work on Wednesday. Yes, Thanksgiving time at one of two specialty bakeries in the city is rather busy. Although the next three days will be crazy, I'm hoping that my attitude stays somewhat civil, and my brain somewhat sane. Tomorrow is my day off - I'll be sleeping a lot. Actually, tomorow is the day that we do the Operation Christmas Child boxes - something that I'd done before at school. However, I've now actually met people who have received those gift boxes at Christmas time because they were victims of either a huge hurricane or earthquakes. That motivates me more to participate as I've heard some of my Central American friends fondly remember receiving actual Christmas presents after experiencing natural disasters.

Whelp, that's all for now, I'm out.
