Stone Henge
at sunset, and about -4 degrees!!!! The past 7 weeks have been more then a little exciting. Having expected to have found a job within a few days, 7 weeks has been unexpected to say the least. But praise the Lord, I start tomorrow at Leighton Hospital in Crewe, Cheshire.
The Norman family have just been a real home away from home and have made this rather difficult time so much more manageable. I also would never have been able to have existed unemployed for so long without their incredibly generous hospitality. So if you guys are reading this - thank you so much - you made this awkward and unknown time possible! Also for all the interesting places you took me to while i was staying with you - stonehenge, salisbury etc. Little grateley is wonderful!
Debs and Myles have been superb, answering their door to my feeble knockings in the middle of the night, desperate for a place to stay and unable to get home, having missed the last train. Your little home is so special - thank you for opening it up to me.
God thank you for your provision, company and friendship - I have come to know you in
Salisbury Cathedral
Beautiful old cathedral in the middle of salisbury a more personal and real way then ever before. You truely do provide when you call us. Thank you for the plans which I know are good - and that I can sleep in peace despite the uncertainties because you hold my tomorrow in your hands. Amen.
There have been some super adventurous times when I have had everything i brought with me, and traipsed up and down the subway steps, heading somewhere, sometimes no where in particular - just trying to come to grips with the london transport system.... and not known where i would lay my head that night! thank you to all the wonderful people who opened their homes.
I even spent some time waitressing to just make ends meet until my HPC registration came through and I was given a police clearance to work in the UK... brought back good and bad memories!
But tomorrow things change, I will don my OT uniform and find out what its like to be an OT in the uk....
