I'm feeling a little better, now. When I came in to work the next day, my co-workers threw me a "chocolate" party to make me feel better. They are really awesome. I'm so blessed to still have that job. But I don't know why God lets these things happen to people. Maybe he's testing me? What's kind of odd is that a week earlier, a similar thing happened. I thought I had something and I was excited, and then it was gone.
My Mom had taken me to the Salvation Army and let me buy whatever I wanted. I picked out almost 10 things, most were 1/2 off. I had Adam with me, and she wasn't done shopping, so she said she'd just give me the stuff the next day. It turned out that she bought my stuff and had them put it behind the desk while she finished, because she had two coupons. When she left, she forgot to take my bag with her, and they thought it was a donation and sent it to Syracuse to be priced.
But I dealt with that ok. I was disappointed (and I did cry at first), but it was just clothes. (even though I hadn't bought myself anything in months) But now this happens on an even bigger scale, with the job. Why would God want to give me so much disappointment? Well, whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, I guess.
So at this point, I don't want to go back to trying for the DDSO anymore. And I don't know if it's worth reapplying at the School for the Deaf. I don't really want to do anything right now. No changes. I'm going to wait and see what happens with Jamie. He wanted to apply at a few different places. If that doesn't work out, I might look into some insurance companies in the future. I don't know. It feels like I have to find a new solution to my problems, but I know I just have to trust God this time.
