1) I get to participate in the wedding of a very dear friend, my household sister Mary Droz (soon to be Mary George!). This entails carpooling across several states with a few other household sisters, going to a bachelorette party, sleeping over at Mary's house for several nights, rehearsing with the organist, and singing for the wedding! So much excitement. I simply can't wait.
2) I get to pack up and go back to Steubenville. My second home. My home away from home. A place that sometimes feels more like a home than my own home does. A place that I'd better be ready to get the hell out of by May when I graduate - because otherwise, I'm going to be heartbroken. I get to move into the house that I'm renting, and make it a cozy little home for a year...houseplants included.
3) I start my final year of nursing school. That's right. The externship I worked all summer has excited and energized me, and I'm looking forward to being a student extraordinaire...growing in wisdom, grace and knowledge. I can hardly wait to whip out the crisp new sheets of paper and hit them with my felt fine-tipped pens. And to my infinite joy, we have a class with Harris again. Praise God.
So, August offers me the promise of many good and pleasant things to come. July was great, but by no fault of it's own, it just wasn't August. And August will be great.
