Another Day

Morning Routine:
* Wake up around 6am (more like 6:20am)
* Shower / Get Ready
* Eat breakfast / Check email
* Hang out until 7:45-7:55am
* Call my boss for the latest update on my clearance status
* "No new news / Hang tight / Be near your phone"
* Wait for call. Wait for call. No call.
* Process: Repeat

It's the same story... for the past two days, at least. Monday was not much different, except that I drove onto Stennis' premises and hung out for two hours. But that, in my mind, was semi-worth the pay that I am receiving.

Trying to be content with the current circumstances, my mind is going in circles. I am afraid that there will be no news this week! After talking with numerous people last night about the secret security clearance, they all told me that it took 3-4 weeks to get theirs. "Three to four?!" I have only been out of the country once, and apparently I went to some awesome places for it take this long. Please pray that I will able to begin something... anything... by this week. Johnny sees no reason why I will not be paid, but I am not doing anything except forcing myself to go out into the community and seek sponsorships for Skylla's Semper Fi project. And people, this blows.

I just want to start the job, like legitimately begin. I know that it won't be fun for the first 2-3 months, but this is not fun either. My mind needs to be at work. I would love to apply my efforts to something worthwhile. And a routine would be nice... or at least justification for waking up at 6am would be nice. And all of the while, I am wondering what I have gotten myself into. Haha. Is the Lord testing my patience? Is this yet another "Trust Me" lesson? Who knows...... who knows.......
