my vanity and counseling addicts

I don't have anything in particular to share in this post, but I just couldn't stand that "frump-ish" picture of myself staring at me everytime that I opened up my internet...putting a new picture is my main reason for posting this entry. I can share, however, that I had a job interview for a part-time addictions counselor for the Public Health Department yesterday. I found out about the job two days ago from somebody and I immediately called and landed an interview...I thought it went well but time will tell if I get a call back. I'll be honest, this whole job thing has me really, really down. It is hard to put my hope or confidence in much at this point. But I also find myself not caring too much either...and that part I dislike the most. I know I am still in the palm of God's hand, and I am safe and cared for there. God is using this time to teach me some stuff, hard stuff like repentance (and not just the kind that follows one or two sins...it's the kind where you realize your heart and life is bent and is in dire need of Jesus).

Here is a better picture for me and you all to look at whenever you log into my blog.

Countdown until I go "home": 4 days!!!! (Kelly, you referenced the quotes around home in one of your comments, and I wanted to explain that I put the quotes around home because I still want to call my parent's home "home" even though I am clearly a resident of my home in California with my loving husband and precious dog...when will the child in me grow up?!)
