New Things Everyday

Wow, what an adventure it has been since moving up to NKY. I feel like each day contains a new experience and the need to be flexible. With my new job as a recruiter for a tutoring program, I have had to change plans or ideas at the drop of a dime. Since the program is new to the area, ways of recruiting have to be different than before. I have had to think quite creatively to succeed at my job when other methods don't work. I enjoy having somewhat of a freedom to use my own ideas and work on my own time.

I feel that I am constantly driving. Along with having to use a car, comes problems. In the past couple years I have come to realize there will always be something that will have to get fixed, but it's not fun when it happens all the same week! I had to have my whole wind shield replaced due to a random crack. Then, today my wind shield wiper broke while driving on the highway in the rain. The situation might seem comical in the future, but today it was just one more straw on the camel's back. The second time I pulled over to re-attach my wiper, a police officer finally noticed me (he was under the bridge as well, watching traffic speed due to the construction). The fact that he seemed preoccupied with getting his uniform dirty made me chuckle inside. Thus is life I suppose.

This past weekend Claudio and I visited 7 Hills Church. It was an interesting service involving the use of a recent movie to go along with the message about pride. We will continue to check out churches and see which fits the best. Not to mention, we both received Starbucks gift cards for filling out some new guest info!

I try not to think of all that I want to complete before the end of the year or I know I will get stressed. Studying for the GRE, trying to get art back in my life where it belongs, network with people, get involved in the community... the list goes on. Although it is good to know what I want to achieve, I have come to find that right now in this phase of my life, I need to take each day at a time. I think God is just trying to show me to completely trust in Him even though everything else tells me I should be stressing out to the max.

One. Day. At. A. Time.
