I can't complain!

I left off last week hoping I would get to sleep in on my day off, and I did, However I was called in at 930 to sit with a Psych patient. After I had showered and headed in I seemed to be bombarded with the sadness of the world we live in. I was sitting in my warm car thinking about how it would just be nice to go back to bed, and I look up and see a man in many layers walking the street. I have seen this man before and believe he is homeless. I could never imagine having to live with no shelter and no heat. Further up the road as I turn on my blinker to turn into Mcdonalds for a quick bite to eat, I see a man just standing in the liquor store parking lot, as if he is just waiting for it to open. I again feel bad, he is a slave to his drug of choice, so much so that he is awaiting its opening. Then as I turn Our God is an Awesome God comes on the radio. I feel a sense of relief, thinking they are where they are supposed to be because 1) they don't know God, 2) This is something they have to go through in life and it will bring them closer to God, or 3)I have no idea what I am talking about . Either way I looked at my situation and came to the conclusion, that no matter how crazy my life is right now, now matter how many sacrifices my self and family are making to get through this nursing school business, at least we have food, shelter, warmth, and most of all Christ is at the head of our family. I truly feel blessed. So if you know me and hear me complaing remember I am human, but also remind me of my blessings!

So this is a big weekend, I have to work Friday night, but on Saturday it is the Annual Doctor's Dance for us nursing students. Actually no doctors are at this dance, but they do pay for our meal and entertainment for the night. A night out with my hubby sounds great. Before I go to the dance I get to spend some time with my favorite gals. It is Deena's baby shower and I am excited to see all the fun stuff she gets. She has a big challange ahead of her, with school and a newborn, please be in prayer that the Lord will give her and Walt strength to get through these next few months.

Spring break is quickly approaching. I cannot believe this semester is 1/2 over. It does go by fast no matter how tedious it feels.

Well I suppose I should wrap up. I am again at a local coffee shop enjoying some hot tea. I have to go pick Bodhi up from the tutor. Hopefully I can get on again later this week. I always have so much to say and by the next week I forget half of it. I hope all is well with everyone. Talk with you soon.
