| TransitionTransitions--I used to like them as a kid but not anymore. I was challenged by my friend to start writing on my blog again so let's see how long this lasts. I am writing this on my Mac while sitting in a small room I am staying in at my parents' place. I am in transition. There is a lot of uncertainty in my life right now. After fighting coming back to Sevier County, I am here. I will be living in a trailer this fall (VERY HUMBLING!) and working at one of my local school districts..I think it will be the Sevier Co. schools but I have not signed paperwork yet. I am just beginning a new phase of my life as a speech pathologist. I wonder at the events that have led me to this point and why I have yet to leave East Tennessee. I applied to numerous jobs outside of this area and did not find any equal in pay for the age range I am wanting to work with this year. With this in mind and my goal of paying off my credit cards this year, Sevier Co. is the best option. I will strive for boundaries, plan ahead, venture into my career and pray daily for wisdom. I have been leading a women's bible study the last few months and I taught on Deborah this week. May the Lord make me bold like her with ears to hear His voice.

| HopeI woke up this morning with hope in my heart. Where did it come from? I'm assuming the hand of my Father put it there. I'm suddenly overwhelmingly excited over the possibilities ahead, the way God will provide for me, and the absolute direction I will receive from Him. I am praying today for the Lord to fill my friends' hearts with hope and joy too. All I want to do today is give thanks. Nothing has changed yet it feels as if everything has changed. Weeping may endure for a night, but JOY comes in the morning. I am so glad! | | |
| MoneyOh...I wish money grew on trees and I could just go for a walk and pick it........ I can't believe this year my graduation is going to be reminiscent of my high school one...absolutely no money and moving to a place unknown...........I hate poverty! | | |
| MotivationDear Motivation,
I miss you. Why did you take a vacation during my final semester of graduate school? Don't you know that I need you so I can finish? I have comprehensive exams in three weeks and I have always depended on you to help me buckle down and study. I hear that sometimes you leave other people in their final year of school but I'm begging you to come back.....!!!! I have been looking at job postings, hoping that suddenly you will return..but alas, you are not returning......... Motivation, please come back to me........

| To move or to stayAs I ponder the next six months, I know there are major life decisions I need to make...Graduation happens in May and then......Only the Lord knows... I'm contemplating moving cities to a larger one in Somewhere, USA ... I started my medical placement this week and love it...which makes my decision of medical or school speech pathology more difficult for me. My prayer is that the voice of my Father who has a perfect will for me will be made known and I will follow every step of the way.... | | |
