I’ve really been in the process of processing a lot of things lately. So much has been on my mind. So many changes in so little time. So many questions asked and so much to think about. So many new people in my life. So many boundaries to explore and set into place. So much to lean on the Lord for in this time.

I’ve been in a lot of pain lately. I’ve been sitting in the healing chairs during the NightWatch. I really think I pinched my nerve in my hip a couple weeks back. I’ll be making an appointment at the chiropractor soon. Tiffany said she knew of one that is licensed and inexpensive. Needless to say, the pain I’m in has affected some of my interactions with people. It comes and goes, but it sure does hurt.

Pure Heart is bringing up a lot of my issues and forcing me to deal with them. This upcoming week we discuss femininity I think – I’m doing my homework tonight and tomorrow in the prayer room. I really do look forward to those three hours of teaching, prayer, and small group each Tuesday right now. Next fall I’m going to do another program with the same department. One of my roommates is seeing the effects of the class on me – she says I am putting up better boundaries around the house and that is awesome to hear from someone who isn’t in group with me.

I am struggling, but I’m asking for and receiving the help I need. It is such a slow process, but totally worth it in all its difficulty.

The transition to nights is hard on my body – I made it to about 2 in the prayer room last night and crashed around 3 at home. I feel the shift in all my daily patterns today. I wanted to be active but was so tired because of the sheer exhaustion of changing patterns. I’m sleepy now.

I think I’m going to go lay down for about half an hour before NightWatch Meeting and then head up to the Prayer Room to get my iPod back from Mickey (Michelle).

Life is good. In all its struggles it is good.
