God is good.....always

Again, I apologize for my lack of consistency in blogging. It's been a rough last two weeks I'm afraid. I have had quite a few venting moments, and have said many times "screw this, I'm going home"! But, I'm ok now, especially with Easter break only 6 days away. I had a bit of a crisis moment on Tuesday. For those of you who don't know, I've worked the last two summers at Lost Valley Ranch in Colorado, and it has been a constant blessing and way to have an income. I received an email on Tuesday saying that I had not been offered a position. The reasoning made sense, sort of. What with the current staff they have, who are staying on, they just wanted to give LVL some new faces on staff. It just came as a surprise to me. Then to top it off, I returned to my room and my adapter had been confiscated because apparently it is illegal in the UK. That kind of did it for me. I sort of....no wait, I DID have a break down! It was just a bad day. I had a horrible chat with the housekeeping manager who'd taking it, and she basically said she wouldn't give it back to me unless I went out, bought a new one, showed it to her and write a note saying I will NEVER use the other one again. Meg got hers back with very little difficulty, but apparently New Hall likes to make their tennants suffer. It was not a good 24 hours for me. I vented about how St Andrews is horrible at advertising, and warning students about certain things, and how I missed the U.S. and hated the UK.....blah blah blah....you get the idea. I feel better now, those are just 24 hours that I want to forget. I know most of my blogs have been fun and light, and I'm sorry to write such a horrid one, but I guess blogging is about everything that happens to you, whether good or bad, so there you have it. I have been constantly reminded since then that God closes doors for a reason, and who knows what could happen this summer because I'll be home. He is good in everything he does, even if it is painful at first. I promise the next blog will be good, most likely because it will be about EASTER BREAK!!!!!!!!!

Cheers
