CHP ~ Day 46

Today I went to drop my mom's car off at the dealership with her, we sat at Starbucks and waited while they were fixing her automatic locks...and we chit-chatted a while. After we picked the car up we headed back into Roseville to run some errands, and Matt called me...he got the apartment he applied for! WooHoo! So, he moves in tomorrow...SO! Mom and I went shopping for some necessity items and whatnot for him. And then we met him and Daddy for lunch. Apparently this is a huge relief to Matt, he had made himself sick worrying about whether their application would go through on this one. (They tried a low income complex and were denied).
So, I am spending the night in Auburn tonight, I've been helping Matt pack up his stuff...which is very strange. My dad has been kinda mopey...he's sad. But, I'm excited he's finally getting out and is going to be commited to a lease (unlike some of the other plans to move out would have led to), so he can't just change his mind in a week. It'll be a real growing up experience for him.

Drew had a good day today. Nothing much in particular...just lots of classes. He said that he only had one PT this morning (PRAISE THE LORD), because the seniors were not up to par apparently and they stayed later. So, he actually had time to shower and breathe before breakfast. He sounded really good today. And, evidently, his roommate didn't get back from the hospital until about 1:00am this morning and was sent back out today, and was gone most of the day (for that weird thing on his hip)...it sounds like they are trying to get shots into it, but it's not responding...at first Drew said staff infection, but his roommate corrected him (and I didn't recognize the other word he said :) ). So, that's exciting...??? HA!

Drew's excited for tomorrow...no PT, but PMA in the morning and afternoon, and he has FOUR hours of range tomorrow!!! So, that should be fun :) He found out that he has Wednesday night off (PRAISE THE LORD), but we think he's going to stay at the Academy to save gas and so he can study for his Spanish test on Thursday. (Unless he gets his bonus check, then of course I'd go get it, hahaha!)

Grandma Mosburg shared an encouraging vision that God granted her this week...she was praying for Drew and God was showing her that Drew is under construction. She saw him as a building under construction, which God as the supports and scaffolding. And her words to me, which she felt God was saying to her, were "there's NO way he is not going to make it through this process!" Well, if those aren't powerful words, I don't know what are...she said that God is his support system, and all the situations he's coming up against are there to grow and build him up. I of course believe this, but it is so reassuring that God is affirming that in the minds of others who are praying for Drew as well, not just me.
