The Dark Abyss

If you have seemed to feel like Chad and I have fallen off the face of the earth these last few weeks, you are not alone; Chad and I have felt like that ourselves!!  As our Fall term passed its “mid-term”, the speed picked up, and we have felt something like the fiery flames of hell nipping at our heels.

            Our motivation has seemed to dwindle, and I will speculate – at least for myself – that it has something to do with our Australia dream.  Things have come to a stand-still in that department, with our fate lying in the hands of the legal department, which apparently is in no hurry to ease our worried little minds.  Despite how much we would like to kid ourselves, we cannot deny how often our thoughts wander to this topic, and at the most inconvenient times, too!  Like these past few weeks, when we’ve had multiple exams, quizzes, and practicals to tackle!!

            Aside from a quick little get-a-way to Bend this past weekend, and the occasional catch-up episodes of our favorite shows over take-out, we’ve had our nosed plastered to the insides of our textbooks, and stacks of notes.  We’ll keep on trucking, though-At least for the next 3 weeks!

            We can’t escape the winter temperatures that have already set in, but maybe if the time goes by fast enough, we’ll be able to enjoy a snow-less week or two before the holidays arrive!!
