An update on YO

So it has been awhile without an answer for everyone who asks me how the ranch is going. I am not there yet and have not had any news on it until recently. I called Cathy the other day to ask her where things were with me being there and her response was that she is meeting with the owner either Thursday or Friday of this week and will get back to me after their meeting. She also stated that she is leaving the ranch to go work in Alaska. This would happen in April and they are now also looking for a camp director to fill her spot. i am not clear on whether she wanted me to think about that ( truthfully it kind of scares me) but she knows my situation with Lauren and put out some things to think about while living here. I am also needing some certifications for the job including recerting my WFR. I plan on doing that this month up at Redcloud where many of my friends are. I miss that place dearly and cannot wait to get up there once again, even if it is only for a few days.

Lauren and I are doing great but the struggle lies with not being able to see each other regularly. Having Skype dates work but they are not ideal and I think anyone in our situation understands what I am saying. However I do look forward to what God has in store for the two of us and cannot wait for that time to come. Some things that Lauren and I pray about that you can pray with us about as well is first of all our relationship; that it is God honoring and a good model for others to see, also that we have patience with a variety of things. And secondly my job, I still have no income and have been in TX for a month. It is only b/c of Laurens parents that that is possible. They have been gracious and hospitable to me. I wish you all the best!
