half way there

It's 2:05 am on Thursday morning here. I had a bit of a manic day today and feel like I've officially done all that I can and now I just have to sit and wait. I did a bunch of finagling about the tuition issue and think that the Lord may have provided a resolution! I heard back from GWU - they apologized and said they were looking into the matter (up until I got this email my stomach was in KNOTS each time I opened my inbox waiting for a reply). I did a really crazy thing tonight and submitted an application to Denver University at midnight tonight (who puts together their doctorate application package in 2 hours, really???). I went back and forth and wanted to talk to Philip about it, but I am not sure when we will get to talk next and decided that if I just did it I couldn't what if or regret not just doing it. I figure I could have chosen much less adaptive coping strategies than just paying the money for the application fee tonight and getting the whole thing out of my system. . . Their acceptance rate is 10% and considering that I'm 2 months passed the deadline, I'm not hopeful but hey, if it's supposed to happen it will. I've done my part. Now I just sit and wait. Whatever will be will be.

Prayer request: Philip's grandma is very unwell. She's been in the hospital for a couple of operations this last week and her state is pretty fragile. Philip's dad came back from his workshop in Thailand early this week (which was a big deal) and is going to be with his family in the hospital. I'd ask for prayer for the family but for Paul and Philip's Grandpa Carl especially. Not fun. *sad face*

It's time to try to get a couple of hours of sleep. I have big plans for tomorrow: finishing organizing/unpacking/cleaning the house seeing how I'm having company on Friday. We'll see what happens. . .
