I passed!

Good news! I got the unofficial results of my math teaching test. The range of possible scores was 100-300. Passing was 240. I got a 260! The test pointed out to myself that there is a lot that I would need to brush up on for teaching anything higher than Algebra II. But at least I passed, and now we can move on to the rest of my teacher training. In July, I'll be going for 7 days of training over a two-week period.

Allergies are better, but I've still got a cough and occasional asthma symptoms.

My hubby contacted Agape Flights, and they are beginning to contact our references. After they get back information from some of our references, they will schedule a time for us to come to Florida for an interview. They also will run a background check on us. I've led too sheltered a life to find much of interest, I'm sure. My hubby was in the military with a high level of security clearance. I think he'll pass.

The bride has a dress and a venue. As long as the venue is available, she has a date. They have decided our humble church is not such a bad place after all. It's not your traditional-looking church building, but our multi-use auditorium can get pretty snazzed up! The church has decorations we can use. And we have lots of people who will be able to help us out at low costs or as volunteers. We are truly blessed to be at Crossroads!

What's a derivative?

Wow! It's been a busy month!

Today I took my content test that proves (if I pass) that I'm "highly qualified" to teach high school math. Right now, I feel like someone sucked out my brains! I don't feel highly qualified to do anything! But I survived the testing process. I should have results in a week or so. If I have to do this again, at least I know what I need to be studying! I think I will need a crash course in calculus and linear algebra. I'm amazed by how much I have forgotten!

I've been fighting allergies, along with most North Texans, this year. It's been REALLY bad! For me, that also means asthma. I went to see a pulmonologist (lung doc) on Friday. He put me on steroids and some more herbs (he believes in those). He wants me to do a sleep study, since I snore. If my lungs don't clear up soon, he wants to "put me in the hospital and clean them out." I hope it doesn't come to that. I really can't afford it. Especially when I'll be faced with substantially reduced income over the summer. Which is a whole 'nother topic.

We found out through some friends that Agape Flights has our application and has been waiting for us to call them. And here we were, trying to be patient and wait for them to contact us! Our friends have been accepted to Agape to go to Les Cayes, Haiti, to set up a guest house and mail services. They are hoping to be able to go in three to four months. Right now, they are sharing their vision and waiting for God's provision. Agape Flights is close to replacing their airplane that they lost at Christmas last year.

Pray for the Russia Team. They are currently in Tula and will be coming home on Sunday. I have not heard from my son or anyone else on the team. A friend said their daughter contacted them, and all are well.

Well, that's all my sucked-out brain can come up with for now!
