The Question, Of Course!

I'm home from my world travels and getting settled in at home. (After being sick for a week! My body just had too much excitement, I think!) As most of you know, I left a couple days after graduation to go to Romania and Hungary for about 11 days on a survey trip. The question everyone is asking now, of course, is "So do you know where you're going yet?" And the answer is no. I don't. The trip was a good one, though exhausting in so many ways. I saw so much and met so many people that I just came home really overwhelmed. Over the past two weeks, though, the reality of the fact that I don't have to do EVERYTHING I saw has begun to sink in, and I'm relaxing a little. There are so many things to weigh, and I see a couple options that would both be GOOD...it is just a matter of trying to decide if one is BETTER. I'm beginning to finally be at the point where I can talk to people about it, instead of just blankly saying "Yeah, it was a good trip, just overwhelming", like when I first got home. Still, I'm not really telling many people what I'm thinking at this point, cause to be honest, I go back and forth so much it really depends on the day what I'm thinking.

So that's really all I have to report right now. If you want to sit down and have a cup of coffee with me, I'll probably tell you more, but for the time being, I'm not willing to post my thoughts for all to see! :-) My goal is to have a decision made before July 13th, which is when I leave for a week of training at ABWE's headquarters in Harrisburg, PA. I'm sure when I DO have a decision, I'll update on here and be quite relieved to have the decision making process over with! Until then, I'm just praying alot, and trying to be faithful with where God has me right now...which is mostly Walgreens! :-) I'd definitely appreciate YOUR prayers, though! Some days this seems waaaaay too overwhelming!

I would love to have you for coffee sometime, too. :) Praying is always good. I have been praying for you as you make your decisions.

What about those who are too far away to have a cup of coffee (or tea) with you? :*(

Love,

Been thinking of you lately, cousin, even if I haven't been emailing! Ahhh! It's been a long time...sorry! Wish we lived closer so I COULD catch up with you over some coffee! But know I'll be praying for you! Love you so much!
