Merry Christmas

Well, the Christmas festivities are winding down so that there can be a brief lull before the New Year's celebrations begin.

In addition to the always wonderful time spent with family and friends during the Christmas break, I've also managed to get a number of other things accomplished. My CPM had its annual retreat the week before Christmas, and apparently I have their blessing to move into Candidacy. I've also been innoculated against flu, hepatitus, and typhoid, in preparation for my trip to the Philippines late in January (although I have since come down with a sore throat).

Assuming the typhoid doesn't get me, I should be returning to good ole APTS just in time to assist with the January Hebrew class. It should be a rousing fun time for all!
