I find it rather odd that I sit here in my comfy chair, the one that is old and ratty and used to belong to my father's mother Quendrid, and subsequently creating a brand spanking new blog.
It is 2:16 pm, New Year's Eve 2007. I'm rather pleased with the way things seem to be heading at the moment, and despite rather ridiculous disappointments, I am overwhelmed with the fact that God is in His rightful place, directing my life where it is meant to go. While I might be surprised and confused at the details of my life, I know that He is not.
The year 2008 is holding some very exciting changes for me, actually I am rather shocked that I'm not freaked out one bit. Culinary School begins in exactly one week. January 7, 2008. On that same day, my employer is moving our offices from his home to a professional building, where I will continue to work part-time. Most likely I will keep this place until I finish school. Unless the opportunity to run a cafe in good old Denton comes together...but at the minute, it's really too early to tell what will happen there.
So here I am, about to begin culinary school, thoroughly addicted to knitting and ready to start a new blog to go with my new life changes. As far as my new addiction, I have knitted 3 complete pieces so far, 2 scarves and a hat. I hope to finish the ribbed 2-color scarf I began soon (tomorrow?!) and begin a hat for myself. Finally something that I will keep!
This past weekend was really crazy. Mostly, I was shocked at how beautifully the catering I planned for Megan Pinney's wedding (now Mrs Embry) came together. I was overwhelmed at all everyone had to say to me about the whole thing. It was all perfect.
Of course, it seems (as Bridget Jones pointed out) that when one part of your life is going great, another part must fall apart. I won't go into that here, but I am also looking forward to the way that God will once again take care of me in those falling apart moments, he already has and continues to do so, and can I just say thanks be for girlfriends.
I am off to clean up the aftermath of Saturday's events and tidy things up for the pre-pre-party at my house tonight.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
Love, The Knitting Chef Sarah
