it was a long stressful day today at the office. i stayed late, but got everything done that needed to get done. i am tired.
we are having a training in Trauma counseling - which i have been very excited about (for lots of reasons). It starts tomorrow - 3 days, and 2 nights (its in town, but our staff was planning to all stay together, cuase its fun, and it also helps you disconnect from your regular work).
i just found out that i can't go to the training tomorrow. i have to do other work. i don't know how long i'll be in the office. i may try to make it out to the retreat center. i'm really disappointed.

Hey Mel!
I just found you blog and will add it to my regular reading list! I have a student in my freshman bio class (Becka Bentle) who was one of your kids at Spring Arbor FM. It is a small world, made all the smaller because of sites like this.
Occasionally, I think of you and wonder what you are doing with yourself. Now, I know. It seems that you are still following after the heart of God and reaching the needy and oppressed people of the world.
I will be watching what you post and praying for you when I can. Your friend,
Burton Webb
i can sympathize... feels like every day there is a mountain of school work that never gets any smaller. keep at it!
