June 1st

I cannot believe how quickly the year is going... It's June already! This last semester was full of new experiences...starting graduate school, taking a long-term substitute job, learning how to better manage my time and decrease stress...well that's a work in progress, and working through some health issues that are still unresolved. Between all of that I have been busy. Please pray that I continue to feel better and find ways to better manage my time and stress levels. Summer session at Wayland has begun, I have three classes; two online and one on Monday nights. So far it's not been too difficult, just trying to work ahead a bit so I can enjoy two short weekend trips later this month. In August, I will be done with 5 out of 12 graduate classes. It's amazing how quickly the time is going. In the fall, I hope to be teaching in APS, but if there are no positions, I will substitute another year, while working on my graduate classes. We shall see what the summer holds. I have applied for a few jobs so far and passed out resumes to a few principals...time will reveal the path God has for me. Today, Mom and Dad are on their way to Uganda. A mission trip together...so excited for them, although I wish I were with them. Maybe next year. :) Happy summer! Julie
