Update

So now I am living in Dallas with my folks, taking a speech course at Dallas County Community College and waiting to take my Texas Certified Nursing Assistant licensing exam on October 7. I have no doubt about passing the written test but I have some apprehension about the skills portion, which must be passed first. You would think it would be easy but there are so many things that can trip you up. Hopefully after the test I will be working in a nursing home that encourages more education (it is the one we did our clinicals in).

Changes, Changes

Since I have not had internet at home this past 10 months it has been really hard for me to keep up with anything online. So anyone I saw in Austin I probably told you that I was moving to Fort Collins and was going back to school. Well, before I left Austin I really started praying that the Lord would make me clear in the following two weeks whether to go to CSU or to a community college (to get the pre-reqs I need for Ultrasound tech program). Well, when I got home to Denver I had some mail that was the writing on a new door. The door was "move home to Dallas to live with my folks. " And that is what I am doing. I am going to live with my parents get a job, work for year to pay of some bills and get (back) in state staus for Texas. Then I will go to school in Dallas.

So I should be done with school in three years (unless the Lord yet agains changes up everything) but this way I should have little or no debt. Yea!

Pressing

I suppose everyone feels like this now days: how bad are things going to get? I guess nothing is really bad at the moment, but it seems like I am just waiting for the ball to drop. I mean I am thinking about school - like I said in my last post, but where is that going to lead? Into more debt? I want to be led by the Lord NOT by my bank account. But I do have to consider if the Lord waits another 20 to 40 years to return how am I going to live on this earth. We may live for another kingdom but we still have to live responsibly on the earth today.

Update on Me

Hello to anyone checking this. Not that I expect many to considering it has been months since I posted anything.

Well, nothing has changed for me much. I am still living alone in a 2 bedroom condo, but the owner (who used to live there with me) is looking for a someone else to rent with me. On the one hand I like living alone, but on the other hand it gets kind of lonely. And soulish, since no one is looking. Also, I am still serving, and the team is still me and three brothers.

Things might be changing though. I am considering going back to school. Please pray for this. I would like to study nutrition, and I am planing on applying to CSU which is in Fort Collins (one of the GTCA cities). My going will depend a lot on whether I qualify for financial aid. I would love to go back to school and also be useful to a campus work. I have joined three new campus teams on new campuses. I would be cool to be on the student side for awhile (alothough once a full timer, always a full timer in some respects). The other consideration is to try to get into a shorter program that would lead to higher paying profession. Oh Lord! Work out what you want me to do in the next few years.
