Irons in the Fire
Today was a good Monday if I ever heard of one.
I woke up bright and early this morning thinking I would need to substitute for my Mom in the cafeteria at SFC, since she had to take my brother to the doctor. But the school called her at the last minute and reassured her that they'd handle it. So I ended up going to the DMV in Fountain Inn to renew my driver's license. Thankfully, I got there before the line got really chaotic. And I managed more of a subtle, rustic smile in my picture. Heh heh.
After that, I headed over to the church to talk with our ministers of children and youth about possibly getting an internship with them during the summer. I had hoped that I'd gotten there early enough ahead of other would-be candidates for the position, but even four months ahead of time was pushing it. The youth minister already had a solid list of contacts that he'd submitted for the chairman of the board, but that I should go ahead and apply for it anyway - I never know what might happen. Annie Ruth told me only one other person had applied for her intern, so my odds of securing that one are a little better. At this point, I'm fine with either one. I filled out my application form and sent it to the main office. I should be receiving a call for an interview within the next few weeks. Prayers for that would be wonderful. This would be an excellent way to build my ministry and to prepare me for teaching.
Winter grades arrived. My heart held its beat as I loaded WebAdvisor this evening. I was braced for the worst. But by God's unfailing grace, the worst did not pan out. CS-16 actually finished a bit better than I expected, so that was a major surprise. ED-21 was a minor disappointment, however. I must not have done very well on the final exam. Still, it's in the books. My GPA escaped relatively unharmed. Big sigh of relief. Bring on spring term!
I had better go. The day of my birth arrives tomorrow, and if I want to wake up at 5:25 AM (the exact time that I was born), I'm going to need my sleep. Yes, I know, it's a silly and insane tradition. But it's my silly and insane tradition. That's all that matters. Goodnight and God bless!
