Impromptu "party"

So, yesterday at our staff meeting we got split into little groups to read articles.  While I was reading in my group, one of my coworkers (from another group) comes in and asks if we can have happy hour and play Quelf at my place this afternoon (since we have inservice tomorrow).  I said sure, so she put a memo up today in the office telling people they could come over to my place.

Let me tell you, it is so funny hosting an impromptu party.  No one showed up, except the coworker that planned it, so she started calling people who said they would come.  Eventually, there were 5 of us.  It was nice, though, to sit around talking and laughing with coworkers. 

I love my job, and I love the people I work with-quirks and all.  We're a weird bunch, but I wouldn't trade them for anything.  I enjoyed tonight.  It was nice to spend time with them outside of work (even though we talked some about work things). 

It's funny how you can feel insecure or a little unsure about things, but then all of a sudden have an epiphany that you're doing what you're meant to do.  I feel so at peace about where I'm at in life.  Thank the Lord for providing this opportunity, giving me the ability to teach, and calling me to it.  I don't know where I'd be if I weren't here.

I feel like I'm rambling tonight, but that's ok.  I needed to say this for me.
