Life.




It sickens my stomach to think that I haven't written anything since June? JUNE? My June, when my summer was just beginning? And now it's August 26th? I just want to throw up! I'm sorry to anyone, even though I'm guessing I'm the only reader of this anyways........

To wrap things up, it was essentially six non-stop online science courses with lab, a nursing assistant certification, ordering nearly $1,000 worth of nursing textbooks just for the first semester, which starts September 6th. I've gone all week not eating since the State Fair's here and we will be attending next weekend. I feel like I've wasted so much of my time with MORE school, even though I just graduated. Things are starting to hit me. I'm now ALMOST the only single person left on the planet and I am okay with that. I am so happy for all of my engaged, married, and babies-on-the-way friends. Truly. God's blessings to all of you! He has such a wonderful plan for everything.



Started my own card making business and am writing a book.

Life is good.
God is GREAT.


Peace.

It's Summer. Finally.

Well, it's summer. Finally. And it seems that I haven't written since FEBRUARY, so I feel real ashamed. The craziness of life kind of buried me deep in this cave. I've been going crazy trying to apply for nursing programs! Yes, deciding to go back into nursing has been the biggest curve lately. I've spent six months now emailing, endlessly calling, paying money for transcripts, mailing bills and responses back and forth, really everything you can think of that relates to going back to school-- all while maintaining five summer classes and NAT training next week.

All I can say is that I got my first acceptance letter into a nursing program yesterday, and after this all being such a long process, ALL the praise goes to God. Amen! My Savior be adored, He never forgets about us.

I look up at Your heavens, shaped by Your fingers, at the moon and the stars You set firm, so what are human beings that You spare a thought for them?
Psalm 8

He has been faithful to me ever since I began all this, really putting things on my heart like where I see myself, where to apply, and keeping that firm peace in my heart, knowing that I will end up wherever He wants me to.

There is definitely more to come, but I felt the need to provide a much-needed update!
