Taking your lumps
Just in case word hasn't gotten around, I didn't pass my last set of board exams. What that means is 1, I have to take the test again in August in Chicago and pay the fee again (ouch), 2 I lost the job waiting for me in Orem and 3 I'm back to washing windows again. Needless to say, its been a very gut wrenching experience. If you have ever felt like you failed at something, you know its very difficult to separate the failure at a task from you being the failure. I guess we can look for the blessing in the trial, and I know we will be taken care of, but I sure could use the prayers you feel inclined to send our way. We have several challenges ahead. I need to find a place to be able to practice, while avoiding a law suit for practicing without a license, and keep up with our finances by trying to wash windows. Katie will again have to go to 2 separate schools this year, and all those dreams of starting to get out of debt are put on hold. What's the lesson? Wish I knew, but I am confident we were set on this path of school for a reason, and I know we were meant to succeed. We'll be okay. Things in August will go well. Its just been fun right now waiting for the emotional bruises to go away.

I am so sorry my brother! I am feeling your pain though, I just found out today that I didn't get the job I applied for either. The difference between you and I is I will have to wait a whole year before being able to reapply AND I am still not confident that next time will be any different.
I will keep sending up extra prayers for you and your family though. Hope the bruises heal soon. Love you.
Thanks sis. I was sorry to hear about your trial as well. I guess the most important thing to keep in mind is this isn't a reflection of you or I, its just one of those things.
