Yo estoy hilando.

Spinning.  It's spinning.  The world is spinning.  Can't really distinguish whether this vertigo is objective or subjective, but that's beside the point.  It's hard to dance when you're unsure of when or where you're going to land, when you don't know which way is up and primary concern by default is to keep the nausea at bay until you can get hold of something concrete again.

A bomb went off in the Trauma Dept. here at WMC yesterday.  A silent bomb mind you, but a silent bomb heard around the world.  Dr. A was fired yesterday.  It sent the department wheeling!! Scandel! Scandel! Scandel! Scandel!  Everyone was walking around with their eyes bugging in shock. It's how you could tell if someone had or had not heard yet. The work I had to do yesterday was on one of Dr. A's projects.  I kept doing it to keep myself busy, but....  This is just awful, especially for Dr. A! What's going to happen with this research?  Dr. A was one of the biggest advocates, the main advocate, for all of us here on the research team.  With no one to advocate for us....  Does his research disappear with him.....  And if it does where does that leave us? 

I'm so incredibly thankful this week has happened in 2014.  I'm not sure if I would have been mentally okay had it happened last year.  But God has brought me through 2013 teaching me the whole way.  And now I can laugh at just how utterly bizarre and unexpected life can be.  Just keep riding the wind as the sun keeps rising and setting.  Absolutely amazed that at every turn He is caring for me. 

Deuteronomy 8:3
"And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live."
 
Psalm 113:3
"From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the Lord's name is to be praised."

Hasta!
