The Last BIG One
Alright, so this is my last full-time semester at Kennesaw State University. By the end of the year I’ll be saying “BYE-BYE” to all my peers and professors. Can ya tell I’m getting a little happy about this?
No really, this is a big step for me. Soon after I graduate I’ll be moving out of my mom’s house. This is HUGE! It’s not that I don’t like living with Mom and Jeff, but by the time I graduate I’ll have been married about four and half years and never left home! I’m really looking forward to this transitional step, needless to say.
The question is…where am I stepping to? Often I’ve dreamed about my life as if I’m on this path and God is the One laying the bricks beneath my feet as I go. Only, I can’t see where I’m going, there is an endless abyss below and before me. It’s a freeing thing to know that I have someone to catch me if I fall or carry me if I go astray, but somehow, I’d just really like to know where the heck I’m going to end up at the end of the road, ya know?!?!
Alright, so I’m not that desparate. However, it is true that I wonder about what position Joe and I will be in a year from now. Will I be a teacher? Will I work for a hospital? Will we still be in the Atlanta area? Will I be pregnant? Will Joe be getting ready for professional school? Will I ever lose this weight?
Phewww…that was exhausting. Looking back at it, it kind of sounded like the preview for some kind of night-time soap. Yes, yes, the soap of my life. Unfortunately I’m in that mid-season suspense. You know, the time in the season where they stop showing new episodes and make you wait for an eternity to see even a preview of what’s going to happen?
Ok, now THOSE were some Scrambled Eggs. Until next time…
