Game On

I am now supposed to take my boards tomorrow and Thursday (we shall see).  Here is a rundown of how my weekend went:

Friday 6:20pm- board plane to leave at 6:50

Friday 7:00pm- announcement that there was a fire in the terminal and there is no power; the flight attendent admits "we're going to be here a while"

Friday 7:30pm- still no power; 15 passengers from our flight stranded

Friday 7:45pm- the powers that be decide we will be towed to another terminal and all the passengers will walk to the other terminal, go back through security again, and will board our plane

NOTE: 1/3 of our plane are young military kids trying to get home for Christmas. . . sad

Friday 8:30pm- we take off.... finally

Saturday- study ALL day

Sunday 8:30am- wake up and begin studying

Sunday 11:15am- receive e-mail that my boards have been cancelled

Sunday 11:16am- FREAK OUT

Sunday 1pm- retail therapy for the rest of the day (it was expensive therapy)

Monday 8:15am- wake up and call testing center, put on hold

Monday 10:00am- speak with operator and reschedule my boards (yes... I was on hold for almost 2 hours... I watched the Princess and The Frog in full); boards rescheduled to San Antonio on Wed and Thurs of this week

Monday 1:00pm- mom wakes up (she works night hours) and we all learn how much she and my dad have going on this week, freak out of trying to pack and leave by 3:30pm for something my dad needed to do begins

NOTE: My dad was in San Antonio/Houston last week, then DFW, then Oklahoma over the weekend.  Jordan is supposed to drive to DFW for Christmas with my family on Tuesday.  My parents are leaving for Indianapolis Friday (17 hr drive). . .  i.e. My dad's been in the car way too much recently.  He's the best dad in the world.

Monday 3:45pm- leave for my dad's appt in the POURING rain

Monday 3:55pm- we realize it ain't happenin' since we're going 20mph on the freeway

Monday 9:45pm- get home to San Antonio

I think I may need some wine.

Just Kidding!!!

You can hold your prayers... my boards were cancelled for tomorrow and will be rescheduled at an unknown date.  Hopefully it will be before I go back to school, but we'll see.  BOO!!

Boards

Tomorrow (Monday) and Tuesday I will be taking my National Boards Part II and am asking for you to please pray for me.  Although I am not as stressed as I was before my Part I, I am still nervous and feel like I haven't studied enough (I have... I'm so bored I could cry).  Please pray for peace of mind and that information would come back to my jumbled head... and that if I have to guess that I will guess correctly.  Because let's face it... I will be guessing on a lot of them!

Thanks!!

More Christmas, Less Header

I'm not sure why, but all of the sudden my headers are blurry.... I can't make any of them crisp.  I even tried going back to what I've used before and they are still super blurry.  Has this happened to anyone else????  I'm so sad!

Anyways, here are some more pictures of our house.  I probably went a little overboard, but whatev.

Wow

I was going to post more Christmas decorations, but my friend posted this on facebook and I felt like this was just way more amazing than my gingerbread men.  What an amazing little boy this is!  There is no telling how many people have been blessed by his singing- God is so great!!  It sure does put my stresses and bad days in perspective.
