I have some good news again. I received my massage exam results in the post yesterday: I PASSED AND WITH HONORS!!!!!!! So I am a qualified massage therapist. I cant believe it. All my hard work paid off. I have to admit, I was a bit worried I wouldn't pass but I can stop worrying now. The only sore spot is that they are unlikely to realize my qualification in the States (although they do all over Europe and Australia). I don't really have any desire to continue in massage but would like to study reflexology once we get back to NY. You need to be a therapist to be able to study reflexology so hopefully they will allow me to do so. I will keep you up to date on that situation.
I didn't lose that much last week. Only 1.5 lbs so we shall see how I did this week. I am hoping for at least 3-5lbs but I am coming on with my monthly so we'll see how that goes.
We are flying to Sweden on Friday and I cant wait. It should be really nice. I am a bit worried about the whole flight security thing. They are suddenly letting people bring onboard things from the duty-free shop (obviously they were going to as the shops would lose money otherwise) so that is good cause I would hate to not be able to bring on a book or my MP3 player. I do appreciate that they are trying to make everyone more secure. I am very relieved they caught them before it happened as it would have killed upwards of 4000 people. Awful. We are truly living in the last days. The bookstudy was so appropriate this week. And we know things are only going to get worse. I really want to get back to the States. Not because its safer there (its going to be the same everywhere) but because I dont want to put my family through the torment of our seperation. My mom was really freaking out the other day when this happened. So hopefully nothing major will happen until we get out. And if it does, we need to just trust in Jehovah.
I want to thank everyone for the kind complements and comments in my last post. They were so kind and made me feel really good. =) For you guys:






Be back soon!
