The difference between the H and the W.

Home is a place filled with laughter, people you love, good food, rest, ministry... and well... generally a place you look forward to being... and an atmosphere you enjoy experiencing.
Work is a place you labour towards something, expel NRG to accomplish a task, potentially see progress, get yelled at by your boss ;) and well... though it is good-fun and rewarding most of the time it is not restful, relaxing, and full of good food.
My life right now HAS to be a summation of the two. Home+Work=the potential to accomplish something beneficial... in the place you just want to hang out and enjoy people.
This presents some problems:)!
Jenny has been good to me this week. We have been motivating each other to do homework... and being able to throw some fun in the mix... It is still homework... but doesn't look quite so depressing when she's around to share in it.
Fascinating subject matter, I know! If only all of life was this enthralling!
(And I am glad that there are other "distractions"in this life as well... though they don't help the HW get done any quicker!:D)

Interesting perspective, Lois. Creative thinking to take the two parts of the whole, separate and then join again. We are praying that you will be able to concentrate on that HW and finish it well. You sure are a great blogger-when you were in high school I would never have guessed you would write so well one day. Great job. Mom

'Been prayin' that the homework will get done so fast and that you will retain every bit of info you take in....plow through, friend! You're doing great and even when you're feeling like the homework never ceases, you maintain that beautiful smile on your face...way to Go! God is good. :)Thanks for being an inspiration...I want to be like you and a mix of Ate Elsa and Ate Susan when I grow up!
