...

My life has changed a good amount in the past few weeks. One, the babysitting job I had gotten hired for ended up not working out. I had to find another job then so I applied at Target and Old Navy. Luckily I was offered positions at both stores and after a few days of pondering I chose Target. I started Friday and worked all weekend pretty much as a cashier. Sure there have been some moments of sheer chaos and panic, but I actually really like it. When it's busy it seems like I have a puzzle race to finish.

School has definitely gotten more time consuming in the past few weeks as well. I had my first test and I completely bombed it. PTL for not having grades follow you throughout the rest of your life. School is good though. I'm really loving my sign class. Honestly it's probably my favorite class. Clinic is stressful or at least when I'm pulled from clinic to do Head Start screenings. It's not the kids or anything that make it stressful, but rather the supervisor. I'm not going to go into further detail here. Regular clinic is great, I've gotten to use some sign that I'm learning and do two hearing evals because my second year wasn't there.

Other than work and school, my life is okay. I've really been sucking at my faith life lately. I just get so overwhelmed with things and doubts that it's hard to believe sometimes. Plus it doesn't help that I haven't been able to talk with my main supports or even my roommate lately as we have different schedules. At least there's Blackhawk in my life, I don't know what'd I would do without having that amazing church to go to and remind me what an amazing God I have. It's also been two months since I've seen my family and it's really starting to hit me now. Unfortunately I don't know when I'll get to see them next and it's really hitting me hard. I really need a mom figure to vent to face to face and get advice from. Right now my mantra has been "Life is good, eternal life is better" from Stellarkart.
