There’s so much to be thankful for!!
- the past few weeks I have felt so much stress that it seemed hard to breathe. But God blessed me with amazing focus and progess, as well as perseverence to work more hours per day than the norm. so…
- I have submitted my dissertation to my committee! I can hardly believe that it’s all written. I have been working on my presentation for my defense, which is the morning of July 22; your prayers are much appreciated!!
- Husband has been such a comfort to me in all the stress… And it makes me so happy that he can do things like fix our leaky toilet. I am so blessed to have a handy husband!
- There is a lot to look forward to in the next couple of weeks! Like I said before, I’ll be defending, and my parents and in-laws are coming for the occasion! After that, I’m planning on doing a LOT of sewing and scrapbooking (I have some projects saved up all special-like 
) and I am hoping to enter a couple sewn things in State Fair competitions. Plus, the week after my defense, it will be our third anniversary! I can’t believe it!
Yay for defending your dissertation! My thoughts and prayers are with you. Good luck!
Thanks so much, Melissa, I really appreciate it!!
