Little Boy Plays Monopoly

Hello everyone,
There is currently ONE available computer... and a little boy monopolizes it most of the time, so you probably won't hear as much from me. I'm in a class from 9-5 with women who are at least 30-40 years older than me :) It's a loooooong time to be in class. Multiply two hour classes by 4 and you have my schedule. I have a binder that's seriously 3 inches thick. It covers everything from prayer and ministry to self-care to ethics.

I'm staying in a lodge called Saint Paul's... only the S has slipped so it looks kind of like Aint Pauls... which is very amusing to me. I haven't visited the beach yet. Oh and I should probably explain what I'm doing in Florida. JoVeta is teaching the parish nurse prep class and I came along for the ride basically. I think I'll get a certificate. Unfortunately I can't get CEU (continuing education unit) credits... since I don't actually have my license.

I'm a little panicked because I said I would start my ATI nursing training online this week... but now I can't because of the limited/solo computer. I hope they can reset me for next week. Please pray that it works out. I think it's something minor... and I'm trying really hard not to be worried. I generally worry about everything. But I've set out the principle that it's useless to worry about something that is open-ended. It could turn out positively as easily as it could turn out negatively so why dwell on negative possibilities? Besides God is in charge... and He is good. So even if it doesn't work out like I think it should... it will work out for the good.

Also, pray for JoVeta. If you noticed the news... a man in Wichita was shot in church on Sunday. He did late late term abortions... like day before birth abortions (shudder) but I don't suppose shooting him was the answer. Anyway, JoVeta went to high school with him. He lost his whole family (mother father sister) in one fell airplane swoop and had to take over his father's practice/give up his dreams. So I'm sure there was plenty reason for the brokenness in his life. Plus, JoVeta has poured much prayer into his life. So it's just a shock for her.

Still missing you all very much... being stuck with elderly women is no joke although they are sometimes friendlier than college girls :)

Much love and prayers,
Katie
