At lunch today we had a spontaneous Sterling Scholar meeting in Pam's office.
It was great.
I got to see Wesley's portfolio.
I had some comforting words from Pam.
I knew what I had to do so I could conquer this portfolio.
And I thought I would have some time to study for my psychology test.
When I came home. Oh, when I came home. I turned on this handy-dandy laptop. He and I are just becoming acquainted. My real computer busted, so we borrowed this one from the Tech Lab at BYU (BYU, I'm coming for you in the Fall... hopefully.) His name is Grumpy. How fitting.
When I turned Grumpy on, all of the papers I had finished yesterday decided they wanted to be magicians. They vanished.
My ego, my belief that I would be finished today, my ecstatic feelings all went POP. Like weasels.
That was a rough hour. An hour of me staring at Grumpy's screen. Because I couldn't do anything else. Literally. And it felt awful, because it felt like I wasn't in control of myself. Bleh.
But thanks to Heavenly Father, I was able to barely finish those pages. So now I will study for psych, and I will proof read tonight, edit tomorrow and this whole shebang will be over!
I cannot thank Him enough. He got me out of a real rough spot. And I don't think this would have gone half as fast as it did without Him. I know it wouldn't have.
There are tender mercies out there.
