A Big Piece of Humble Pie

So you know those times or days when you feel like you're just out of place? Like you don't belong there? You're just in the way? You came at a bad time? You just don't fit in? You're being annoying without doing anything?

Yeah, all of today felt like one of those days. I just wanted to crawl up in a ball and hide in my bed alone. For some reason, I've been having a lot more of those types of days. They really suck. And even though I try not to let it get me down, it does. Mostly because it comes from people I really respect and look up to.

And today was also a humbling day for me. I won't say why because there were embarrassing moments that played in. I don't like those days where God puts you back into your place and says, "Whoa now, don't get all high and mighty on ME. Or others for that matter." I know we all need those times, but made they're uncomfortably humbling. Ick. I guess that's something I've got to work on along with being less prideful.

On a more wonderful note: you come home in less than a week, Jill. I'm ready for you to be home. Also, I just found out yesterday that I won a $2000, possibly $2500, golf scholarship. And I don't even have to be on a golf team to to get it. It was an outside scholarship and I had to fill out all the regular application stuff, but then I also had to answer questions like, "How have you been involved with golf?" and "What has golf taught you?" Stuff like that. And that scholarship cuts out a lot of the money I needed to get in order for me to get down to a reasonable amount of money for loans. So I'm pretty pumped about that.

Have a great week. What has God done in your life lately? Anything I can pray for for you guys?
