Career Woman

Someone told me that they actually check if I've updated my blog...so I guess that means I have fans!! woo hoo! In that case, I'm doing this for my fans......

I've now been in Wichita almost 5 weeks, working for Aeroflex. I may actually start doing some real "work" soon! Kinda exciting. Also kinda frightening. I hope I don't blow anything up. At least not yet. :)

My dining room chairs and computer desk finally came in today. I've assembled 2 of 4 chairs already. The desk...well, I have to get the box up the stairs and in the door first. I'm going to need some reinforcements for that.

I think I like Wichita. Believe it or not (or care about it or not), I found a Navigators group here...with about 15 people in it. I'm praying about whether to get involved there or find another ministry since Navs has pretty successfully become my identity. Not necessarily a good thing. Maybe I can talk Seth and Mindy into coming down here. They could even move into my apartment for a while. I could share a room with the kids. :-p

Becky N sent me a thank you letter today. Her brother Danny has yet to send me a thank you letter, but I won't hold that against him...he's a boy. He did actually say "Thank you" once.

*Note to PB & Janie: House of Cha told me that they're opening a store here in Ta-town pretty soon. I will have my Bubble Tea!! (insert evil cackle here).

My life lately has been rather sad. I haven't been doing much at work (though that should be changing soon), and then I have nobody to come home to, no friends to go out with, nothing particularly worthy to accomplish in my free time. It's been rather lonely. All the college students are getting ready for Christmas break and won't come back for a few weeks, so I can't get involved there yet. I think this really is a time for me to draw nearer to God, but I've been struggling against it almost the whole time I've been here. I don't know why, either. It would seem very logical to draw near to Him when I have nobody else, but something in me just wants to push Him away right now. Lord, break this pride of mine. All I have You've given me, and is Yours. Let me see it that way and take care of it in a worthy manner (been reading Leviticus & Numbers lately), as things that are given wholly to you.

I could keep writing, but the other 2 chairs are calling my name. See you next 3 months!
