Okay, so I have calmed down a little bit since my last post and decided to let myself breathe. I got my announcements in the mail the other day and somehow started to see the light at the end (I was wondering if they were worth it, as much as they cost, thanks mom and dad, and unfortunately I didn't get many so only family is getting them), but somehow it helped me to see them.
I had to prioritize a little bit, realizing I was putting all my energy into school, my internship etc. and wasn't leaving anything for God and my family. Matt and I attended a marriage conference last weekend and I had a blast. Today, instead of finishing my paper that's due on Tuesday, I am going to hang out with Esther. Somehow I am less stressed about school, even though I am spending less time focused on it.
I still haven't heard back about the fellowship, and have yet to find any job openings in the Billings/Hardin area, but I know that God will provide the right opening at the right time. So thanks to all of you for your thoughts and prayers. Please continue to pray for me and the family over the next couple months as this phase of our life comes to a close and we start the next, whatever that is.

That's pretty much where I am. In my case, it does mean that my progress isn't as quick as it theoretically could be, but I know that if I didn't take time to spend with my sweetie and do non-school and non-assistantship things, I'd go crazy, and possibly end up not finishing at all, rather than more quickly.
Heidi, I'm glad you're feeling less stress and more peace. I'll continue praying for you and your family and what the next season will hold.
Hang in there! We love you and miss you guys!
Hey - we got your announcment. Too cool!
Praying for your family.
