My Catholic Journal

I don't know why but I feel compelled to write before attending church today. Perhaps it means that I will be unwilling to learn anything today. I can be a little hard headed. Regardless, It has been a challenging week to say the least. Our dryer broke and we haven't been able to get a new one yet. Also it was a slow couple of weeks for hours in the per diem would at SRHS. To top it all off I have been very stressed. My blessing have been to numerous to count lately especially when it comes to work....but it has not been without some stress. I have been fixating all week on being new at all my positions. I have been longing for that day when I can go to work and not be the "new guy" and feel confident that I can handle whatever comes my way. Instead, every decision or task is a hard one that I have to put much thought into.

How has God answered me....he gave me access to yet another new position. My new position will be to train in x-ray. This should greatly help the "hours" situation. It will however be a challenge to not feel stress as I have been away from x-ray for quite some time now. Wow! Be careful of what you ask for....Amen! Regardless I am trying to look at this with humility and openness which has seemed to work thus far. One thing is for sure...things like prayer, church, the rosary have all been great gifts to kind of center myself to face my challenges. I guess that's probably why I am writing before church this week. I am looking forward to receiving these blessing.

Oh ya....mom called last night, they may be getting a new dryer and wanted to know if we wanted their old one.
