Nanny, Africa, Moving, && Chicago Title

Sorry it's been awhile, it's been crazy around here for awhile.

Nanny is in the hospital and the status of her situation is more like a rollercoaster than anything I have ever seen. Mornings are different than afternoons and nights are different than the two before. She has been back and forth between ICU and general rooms since last Thursday. She went from heart failure, to pneumonia, to dimensia, to her lungs filling with fluids... from loving us, to hating us to not knowing who we are. It's been insane to say the least. So please keep her on your prayer lists becuase we really don't know what will be next with her. Right now she is stable, but like I said, nothing stays the same for too long.

Africa plans are coming along greattttttttt, I sent out support letters a few weeks back and have received 3 checks back (thank you SO much to all who are supporting financially), it is SUCH a big help. Only downside is that a lot of our Ethiopia meetings are conflicting with my Young Life meetings. I'm on the Selection Committee to help pick out our new area director, and that's a huge honor, but a lot of work also. We are meeting this month to interview a few candidates, so that should be interesting :)

Mom is moving to Seattle this week...it is CRAZY. I really don't know how I'm going to survive without her! A lot of trips to Seattle is my guess... I'm also moving out at the end of the month to live with Kjerstin and Savahna out on Lake Samish. It's basically my ideal living situation so I'm really looking forward to it. Another thing that has been heavily on my heart lately is what to do about work @ Chicago Title. It's SUCH a great job, and I know a lot of people my age and even older would love to have this job. It really has the potential of being a career...from where I am at now I could only move up and I could be working here for a long time. Some people in our office have been here for 40 years.
For some reason though I am just feeling really unsatisfied with this place, especially lately. I'm questioning what to do, becuase originally I took the job to pay for my Africa trip...now that I have, I don't know what I'm doing here anymore. Long term I would really love to work in Ministry, but I just haven't seen any signs of opportunities lately. My fear is that God won't open up the door to Ministry until I've shut the door on Corporate America (aka Chicago Title). But the waiting time in between is REALLY scary. The biggest part of me knows the Lord will provide, but I am still struggling with really taking the initiative to leave this job behind. Anyway, I don't know what to do... still trying to figure it out, but we will see I suppose. Hope all are doing well :)
