So my group had a holiday week of sorts this week.  An overnight trip to the beach (not the one pictured on my profile photo, but equally as beautiful as Puerto Vallarta) and a Christmas party brought us some good R&R from our daily grind.   Pictures of that will be up soon, that is, whenever I get the disposable camera ones developed and whenever I get my memory card to load on a computer.

There is a lot that I have learned this week.  Some of it has to do with pride, methinks.  More on that later.  I cannot wait to set aside a lot of time to do fill-in blogs.  There will be a lot of philisophical whatnot coming your way, so gird yourself. 

For the AIM staff in Gainesville, I apologize.  I'll try to keep it to a short novel ;).

Anyway, I'm coming home on the 15th, very soon, as I have previously said.  Cannot wait to see you all!  I will possibly be in Monterrey this week, so I'll take photos with however many exposures are on my camera.  Those of you who have Facebook can check the others that people have tagged. 

May the Christmas season bring you joy and peace.  God loves you all!
