Between 2 Worlds
Time is flying by, I leave for Minnesota a week from Monday. No matter how you slice it or dice it, to move home to Minnesota which is where I want to be and where I feel called to be, I have to leave Boston. Two years ago I "blindly" drove out here not knowing a soul, not knowing if I would like the East coast and now I have established my life out here by myself with great friends, a great church, and great families to work for. I guess it just goes with moving on with your life and starting new chapters, you must say good-bye to where you are. This transition stuff is perhaps my least favorite times in life. But they are good and serve a purpose I am sure :)
This past week was good, it went by fast though, I put in a lot of babysitting hours, trying to save for the long trip home. It has been great to spend time with the kids I babysit though, there are going to be very hard to leave, I have been with both families the whole time I have been here, I live with one of them, and the other one is having me over for a "fancy" dinner tomorrow night for my birthday/going away/graduation. They are the sweetest family, and I am so blessed by both of them.
I took my final for church history, and I am well on my way to finish my paper, this just leaves putting the pieces of my thesis together and 1500 pages to read and I am done with my masters degree and with school. That is something that has not registered yet for sure, even though I am in the process of applying for full time youth ministry jobs I still feel like I will be going back to school next fall.
We finally had some good weather on the North Shore, I spent some time at the beach today and walking around Manchester by the Sea. It was great to be outside and you can never go wrong with a beach and cute beach towns like Manchester, although the parking is kind of a pain.
That is all for now, one more week in Boston, but it should be a full one, trying to tie up lose ends, spending time with friends, and finishing my paper.
I hope that everyone is doing good! Have a wonderful Day!
P.S. Happy Father's Day Dad!! Thank you so much for all that you do for me! Love u!
P.S.S. GO MINNESOTA TWINS!!! They are rockin' it right now. Hey Minnesota peps who is up for a game!! :)
