The Letter

The long awaited letter from UTA College of Nursing came in the mail today.


The application deadline was June 1. I turned my application in the last week of May. It is a long wait.

And it looks like I have to wait a little bit longer...

I have been put on the waiting list to be accepted into nursing school.
Although I'm glad it wasn't a rejection letter, I'm still not guaranteed to get in.
I have to turn in a form to keep my name on the waiting list, and they could let me know anytime between now and when the Spring semester starts if I've been accepted or not.
Talk about being on pins and needles!
God is truly teaching me about patience and not being "in control" during this time in my life.

In other news, I posted a blog here about our upcoming adoption!

Just Checking In...

This last week has been absolutely C.R.A.Z.Y.
As in, like, I can't even begin to tell you how crazy.
Can you say a roller coaster of highs and lows?! Because that's what it was.
Oddly enough, it has nothing to do with the adoption. That is all well and good, and going as planned. And, if I may say, the mere thought of it has been the joy of every moment of my days.
Let's just say (because it's a llllooooonnnng story) that in the span of about five days we found out we had to move, found a place, and moved in. We were not "evicted"...it really was not our fault...we were paid up on our rent...but...yeah, it's a long story, indeed. And I shall not drudge it up here.
The point is...I am still around, just a little too busy to blog right now. Thankfully, all of that happened during a week that was light in school load. This week, however, is another story.
So, I will stop putting off my work and get to it.
I will hopefully have some news, though, later on this week.....
;)
