November is flying by and I can’t believe it’s already the 19th — and this Thursday is Thanksgiving! And, I still don’t know what to bring to my in-laws’ house — or to Mahealani’s. Must go through my Lindy’s Ono Recipe Cards tomorrow.

Pretty much spent all day filming at work. I think I’m getting somewhat better with the camera, although I still enjoy editing so much more. I am assigned to this video detail temporarily until December 7, which is pure bliss. I only wish I could do this permanently. Work wouldn’t be so work-like if this were my full-time, permanent job. But, it’s a start and I am grateful for the short stints in which I’m able to get away from my real job to do fun stuff like this. (I just feel for my replacement, though. It’s not an easy job to step into and I’m sure she wants to strangle me by now.)

While I was reading the Bible last night, I came across this verse:

“But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they go right on producing delicious fruit.” (Jeremiah 17:7-8)

I’ve been struggling with issues about our upcoming embryo transfer procedure and all of the what-ifs that go along with. The control freak in me has a hard time letting go and letting God take care of things. I thought that it was a timely reminder for me to read this verse in Jeremiah. If I put my trust in the Lord, I will not be bothered by trials that come my way because God will sustain me and allow me to flourish. It is comforting to know that in times of trouble, all that is required of me is to trust in the Lord and make him my hope and confidence. He takes care of the rest.
