I'm Alive!!!

Notice the title? It's the best I could come up with since I have been M.I.A. for several months now... I'm very sorry about that... (really I am!) I wanted you all to know that I haven't forgotten about you (in blogger world? cyber space?) what would you even call this place??? Anyways, I know that it's been a long while of me being absent from posting ANYTHING on here so hopefully I can catch you all back up on the happenings and whereabouts that have consumed my life.


Note: This will most likely be made into parts for ease of typing reading.



May
I was finishing up my semester and on the look out for a job that could possibly be more than just a summer job, but was not limiting myself (I just really needed to be employed). I had become frustrated because I hadn't heard back from Mission Springs at all (I applied in January). I kept checking their website to see if positions were still available and there were so I took a deep breath and called them to see why I hadn't been contacted. Turns out my application hadn't gone through (their website was having problems or something to that effect), but I was advised to reapply because they were still hiring for counselor positions. So I did just that; I reapplied and got a phone call within the next week! I jumped at the chance to work at Frontier Ranch (my decision was based on 3 things #1 I love Mission Springs, #2 I needed a job and #3 I truly felt led by God (I still believe it was a God thing)). I had 1 1/2 weeks from being hired to moving over to the Santa Cruz Mountains for the summer and I had a lot of things to take care of before then.


June
I left home on June 13th to start my summer adventure. The first week I was at Mission Springs was all trainning and getting to know everyone on staff most were new and some were returners, but by the end of the week you wouldn't have known that we had just met. God really knew what he was doing by placing everyone at Frontier Ranch!
