It Gets Better!

Here's a quick update on a few things I mentioned in my last post.
Blogging and just verbally processing was very helpful, as you can see the difference in tone from the way my blog started to the way it ended. I can hate things the way they are and get all angry and rant and what not, but that doesn't change a thing, and it doesn't do me any good, so there's really no need to bother.
Anyway. THE NEWS: Bad news is, the lady didn't call yesterday as promised. She didn't even call today. But I asked my friend to make sure the lady had my number right. He just talked with her and gave her my number again, and (Here's the GOOD NEWS) she said that she has all the information together and that tomorrow (Friday) she'll be meeting with her boss asking permission to take over my case and be the one to resolve it!! This is so encouraging to me! I'm not forgotten! The ball is rolling! Maybe not as fast as I'd want it to, but it's moving forward, and that is a definite cause for rejoicing! Please pray for the meeting to actually happen tomorrow (meetings have a way of getting postponed here...) and for the lady to get permission to resolve my case! Thanks so much for all your prayers so far!
In other zones of stress, the material I need to get together for the house moms for the month of June still isn't close to ready, but I'm not going to stress about that. I'm just going to push the date back a little.
One of my hermeneutics lectures got posted today, and it's the one I'm more interested in seeing, so I won't write much longer so I can go see that and hopefully get a little more work done this evening.
The blessed ice creams for the Bible club? Well, that was really stressful for a little bit. There were some ice creams there in the kitchen, but they are for AWANA on Sunday. It was looking like we weren't going to have anything, or I was going to have to get a taxi to the center of town and buy all the local little grocery/convenience stores out of chocolates. Ay ay ay. Not planning ahead really sucks. But, then there was a change of plans and someone was able to bring us cheap, relatively tasty ice creams and novelties! Praise God! And, all the houses that had to present did their presentations and they turned out really well! One was about a city with no rules and was all messy and the people learned to make rules and get themselves organized. Another was a fantastic skit the Arco Iris house made up about sin. They compared it to having fleas. All we have to do is accept the free flea spray (say that 10x fast!) and we will be flea-free! Of course, that relates to us being sinful and in need of God's grace and forgiveness. We can't get rid of fleas on our own. And the gift of flea spray makes us clean and presentable before God. Talk about a creative skit!! And, the last presentation was singing "Oh be careful little eyes what you see," since it tied in PER-FECT-LY with this month's Bible lesson of "What are you watching?" I'd wanted us to sing the song, but didn't know all the words in Spanish very well. So, God worked it all out. And all the kids were really well behaved today! Oh, and we finished by playing a review game of what we've learned so far this year. The kids did great and it was a lot of fun. So, though there were some really stressful moments earlier in the day, things have gotten way better, and I'm so encouraged with things in migration! And I found out I have Monday off since I'll be working all weekend. That makes life a lot easier too!
Please keep praying for that and for this weekend. I almost have everything ready for my 3 lessons on Abraham!
Off to watch the OT narrative lecture!
