Life sucks sometimes...

...and sometimes it doesn't. Like now. :) Several weeks ago I put up a post about how Brett and I were struggling with all kinds of frustrating things in our lives. As I said then, we decided to just put our trust in the Lord and move forward. Well, things are finally starting to look up and we are just so so so grateful!
           Among other disappointments, a month ago we were facing problems like how they wouldn't let Brett into take the MCAT and that I wasn't even interviewed for a job that a manager invited me to apply for and I was sure I would get. Now Brett is signed up for another testing date, taking another prep course, and learning all kinds of great tactics for the MCAT. (We also heard that the test on the day he was supposed to take it was actually the hardest that one of our friends had ever taken...we're counting our blessings :) ). I got four job interviews last week (they all called on the same day!) and I found out yesterday that I got all four of the jobs!!! 3 of them were at Intermountain and they let me choose which one I wanted. :) I will be working at the Intermountain Health Care center in Murray as a Diet Tech. The fantastic thing is that this job is even better than the one I applied to earlier. I will get great experience, the hospital is beautiful, the people seem fantastic, and the job starts the week after I finish school...I don't think it could have worked out more perfectly.
           We feel very blessed right now. We really are being watched over. It's so crazy, I've seen this over and over again in my life, my plans that I work so hard on making don't work out, only to be replaced with something much better a little farther down the line. The Lord truly knows what is best for us and things will always eventually fall into place if we put our trust in Him!
