It Is What It Is
16 May
I have a tendency to blog when I’m happy and confident…but right now…I’m not so sure that’s the case. I havent blogged in such a long time, huh? 
I guess I’ve spent so much tme wallowing in the negative, that my stress level went super high. But… things are finally starting to even out…at least I HOPE they are. :surprised:
Week before last, I spent the week at a company conference at Disneyland. I have to admit it was ROUGH being away from Incog for so long. I was glad when the week was over and I could sleep in my own bed. :hug: It was a loooooooong ass week. lol I can tell ya that much.
These last classes are killin me. I’ve come to hate Mondays and Tuesdays with a passion. Spending 4 hours straight in a classroom learning about common sense principles are really working my nerve. AND he wants a 15 page final paper? :wtf: I gotta finish these so I can get graduate and get out of here….:woohoo:
I’m learning to manage my stress levels. :bitch: I realized that at the rate I was going, things just were NOT good. So now my attitude toward many things is, it’ll happen when it happens, and if it doesnt, there’s nothing I can do. The true meaning of “letting go and letting God”. I talk about it so much…..it’s way past time to practice what I preach. So far, it’s been working well…but I have to tell you….
When you ask God to bring you closer to him…He really draws you close. I dont think I’ve ever prayed as much in my entire LIFE as I have the past MONTH. :pray: God works in such mysterious ways… I do know one thing…if you can send up a silent prayer as you read this…I’d really appreciate it. I know that prayer works in numbers. I KNOW that for a fact. Sometimes I say and/or do things that I dont really mean. Every action causes a REACTION. I pray that God continues to watch over me….:pray:
Weekend before last, Incog and I took a trip to the Santa Barbara Pier & Art Festival. I really had a good time. I posted the pictures in the gallery that weekend, but of course havent posted in a month. I’ve also posted a few newer photos in the May 2006 Portrait Album.
Anyways…class in a few hours….gotta get back to starting this final paper (due next week).
Thanks for your prayers in advance…
Stay blessed.

You’ll be all right Court. I won’t lie though, grad school is really tough! At least you are doing good financially and you don’t have to worry about that, plus, you have a good man. That’s ALWAYS a blessing! :high5:
Well it’s about time!!! I got you on the prayers. :pray:
Hang in there, there is no testimony without a test. Cliche I know but it will happen. I won’t get preachy but He’s equipped you so you’re covered.
Hey, it’s great to hear from you again. Welcome back to the blogosphere.
When I first started my blog a few months ago I thought it would be a easy to blog my pain…my tests and my temptations…but when I’m in the middle of a battle and getting my but kicked I find it hard to let the world know. Its pride I know and pride comes before a fall.
I’m glad you are soliciting prayers…it feels good to know how many people love you…without really knowing you.
Peace to you Courtney
You’re amazing for going through grad school – keep your head up. I know its tough but it’ll be worth its weight in gold!!!
:grouphug:
I’m praying for you as well. Be blessed.
I remember that last stretch to being done school! It was so stressful! My husband is completing his post doc now and seeing that light at the end of the tunnel but not being able to reach it is tough!
Hang in there girl!! It will so pay off!
Aww sweetie :hug: I hope things get better for you. We all go through it ya kno, just gotta keep your faith. I will keep you in my prayers :heartbeat:
I know what you mean — it’s difficult sometimes to just let things go. I stress out about so many things on a daily basis that it just brings me down. I used to be really bad with it, but I finally talked myself into believing that I can’t worry about things that I can’t control. It’s not worth it. Good luck with it all though babe, and those are pretty pictures!
nice pics court.
good luck w/ school. =)
Girl, nothing in life is easy and you are working for what you want. Stick with it and continue to pray. Better days are yet ahead..

i’m glad that there are still people in this world who care about and believe in God…
and I’m glad that you’re one of `em!
good luck with school!
i know everything will work out fine! :woohoo:
Ironically I’m going through the same thing my emotions have been getting the best of me. You definately have my prayers.
