I have finished my book and have to go to work tonight. It's all a little depressing. I have spent the majority of my afternoon scouring the internet, looking at all those sites I couldn't look at before, for fear of seeing something I shouldn't have. I am allowed now. I suppose I should finish The Fellowship of the Ring and Winter's Heart. I am well into both of them. There is just something about those Outlander books that has me hooked and makes me want to read through them over and over again. They also make me want to move to Scotland and learn Gaelic. (And to buy Shane a kilt and a dirk for Christmas....)
And then there is work. It hasn't been too bad lately. I know that it is directly related to the fact that God is on my side that I have been spared. The nights I am not there are reportedly crappy. God answers my prayers. And even when I do run into a troublesome patient or a situation that is particularly trying, I know it could be much worse and that he is watching over me and helping me along my way. God is good. He does answer prayers. I've seen it happen first hand quite a lot lately. He is good.

Amen, amen. He is Good!
Yes, Brian has taken to wearing the plaid lately; and he now hides a dirk under his pillow. My pet name for him is “Jaime” (pronounced Hime like our old landlord). Our Gaelic lilt has more of a southwestern twang.

(Or as my pastor used to say, he always answers, just sometimes the answer is no.)
