Had a good session with my therapist this morning, We talked about my professional future and all my options I have opening up. She said I seemed to really be in a good place right now and hoped that everything would soon be resolved where I could tell people about it :). We also talked about the kids being home and how I was going to handle that. So it was a productive session all around.
Had two very good professional things happen so far–yesterday was my first guest post for another blog called Defying Shadows. I posted about bipolar disorder and what barriers I had in my life that I had run into as a result of it. I hope it goes over well with their blog audience. AND–I asked people to pray about an opportunity I had to be featured in a national magazine. I got a return email today that the reporter wanted to chat with me over the phone and see what my story was all about. SO I am VERY thrilled with that possibility.
And my daughter fielded me a call today from a local lady that read my article in Mississippi Christian Living and wanted to tell me how much it meant to her. I called her back and spoke to her for a minute; she said she had tried to find my blog and couldn’t, so I gave her the blog name and told her I would be thinking about her. That’s why I’m doing what I’m doing–to try to help others. I get a lot of personal satisfaction out of doing this writing, but I feel a real call on my life to try to minister to people through this blog and through creating awareness. So the more I can do that, the better.
Hope everyone has a good day today!
Isn’t it the BEST when you get feedback like that on your article! How wonderful. Good luck with the national magazine, hope you get it!

Just got off the phone with the reporter; I’m one of four women they are looking at for the feature. I need to send in a photo or two and she’ll call me back in two weeks. So we will see.
