Order & Efficiency

I go back to the place I've called home for 26 years tomorrow.  
Sioux Falls, I cannot wait to see you.
This is by far the longest I've ever been away from you, 
five months. 


Last time I was with my family we were enjoying a 
beautiful outdoor concert!


This time while I am with my family, 
it will look a little more like this…


Bring on the scarves, mittens, boots, down coats, and long johns!
I seriously cannot wait.

I know it won't be a perfect trip home,
I know I won't fit everything in,
I know I won't feel as rested as I long to,
I know it might feel weird.

But I do know it will be GOOD.  
Because God makes everything good,
and I trust Him.

So, in the name of order and efficiency...
[the motto of my home country]
I have created a detailed list of everything I desire to do stateside.
This way I will avoid spending the entire Christmas break
taking hot showers
drinking mochas.
[although count me in on those once a day…]
