It's amazing what a good night's sleep and daylight can do. Last night was difficult for several reasons - total exhaustion from driving 44 hours, it was very dark, and I had no idea where I was, I still hadn't heard from my work regarding the drug screening I needed to take 48 hours before I could officially start working, all of my stuff being packed in a trailer I didn't have the energy to unpack, this plan I've had for just a few short weeks finally became reality, etc.
Well, I got a good night's rest, the sun came up and daylight definitely helps me to feel more secure about where I am, I was able to explore a little bit today (even got to walk Brooke along Lake Michigan), I got the call I was waiting for and completed the test - so I will only miss two days of work, and the trailer is unpacked - I've got a good gauge on where most of my stuff is. :)
I am reminded of an earlier post where I compared snorkeling to life - clarity and visibility are definitely my friends. I am learning that there is not much that stresses me out, or devastates me - but having many unknowns do both. Gee, I just may learn how to TRUST God COMPLETELY for EVERYTHING this year. That would be cool.
Now I'm going to go take Brooke for another walk. Pray I don't get mugged. Just kidding, I'll be safe. I think.
