DAY 6

So many things, where to begin?  First - I had my weigh in and I have lost more weight.  I'm still going the right direction, so that's a good thing.  Not as much as I'd like, but given where I was at with the program a month ago, and almost giving up, it was better than I expected. 


Found out today that I get to reduce how much BP meds I'm on. That's pretty cool. 


I just got a call from Nicky.  She didn't get the internship with the church that she wanted, but she did get an internship with the organization on campus.  She said after she prayed about it, she felt like this was going to be a good thing, possibly a better fit for her right now.  In addition to the "work hours" she'll have this fall when her internship starts, she'll have to be attending an local church regularly.  The church she had planned on interning at needs a Girls Jr. High Sunday school teacher.  She's going to volunteer to do that and start it this summer.  :)  I think this is excellent opportunity for her and it will get her grounded at one church again instead of floating between churches like she has been the past few years. 


I'm thankful that I have a daughter who took time to think and pray about this and to also interview this person she would be working for, making sure that they understood she wouldn't give up another job to do this one.  She got them to admit that after talking to her, they see that she can handle it and that they do not have a problem with her keeping her other job.  :) 


She continues to amaze me on how smooth she handles tough situations like that.  She says "I just think 'what would mom say?'"  My guess is the real end to that thought is.... "and do the opposite!" LOL
