Happy Wednesday, Y'all

Today I'm joining Anne from In Residence for her monthly link-up, where we share what's currently going on in our lives. And each month, Anne gives us a list of prompts to use to guide our posts. 

December's prompts are...

  * baking *  decorating * gifting * hoping * sending *

I'm currently baking nothing. But I do have a chocolate chip cookie mix at home that's been calling my name. So I'm thinking I'll be making that this weekend... :)

I'm currently decorating very little this year. I’m not decorating at home (here in Dakar) since I know I'll be at home (in Alabama) on Christmas. But I did put up a few decorations in my classroom. I couldn't not do it. After all, my people absolutely LOVE them some Christmas decor. So who am I to deny them that bit of fun? :)

I'm currently gifting something to my students for Christmas. But at this point, I just don't know what to give them... Where's a Wal-Mart or Target when you need one?

I'm currently hoping all the details work out for my time in the US. If I’m being honest, the financial side of getting my ankle injury taken care of in the US is worrying me a little. And I know I need to stop worrying and just trust God. So here’s hoping my brain can do that soon... :)

I'm currently sending some fun Christmas cards to family and friends and missions supporters. Shutterfly came through with an awesome steal of a deal. So I was able to save so much money, but still end up with super cute photo cards.

 And since it's my blog and I can, I thought I'd share a couple more :)

I'm currently reading through the book, Wonder, with one of my groups. There are so many good life lessons to be learned through this book. Not to mention all the good English lessons to be learned as well...

I’m currently working a little each day after school, prepping sub plans for the beginning of next semester. There's so much to do. But listening to Christmas music is helping the time go by so much faster. And the peace

I'm currently reading the book of Luke as part of my own devotional time during the month of December. I love reading and rereading the story of Christ's birth. I'm a big fan of reminding myself of the incredible gift of hope we have as a result of the birth of our Savior.

And that's about it for me.

So what about you?

What are you currently up to?
