bravely done



Remember, a few weeks back, when I told you I stood up in front of 500+ people and told my break up story sans notes? It wasn't easy, as you can hear by the emotion in my voice in parts where I was swallowing down tears. But I did it. Yup. And I felt pretty kick butt brave, I did.

The link is to a high quality pod cast. You can't see my face but you can hear my voice. So, if you've ever wondered what Jennifer P. sounded like and you have a free 9 1/2 minutes, have a listen...

And P.S. :  I'm totally counting this as my first (and likely only) *vlog* :)

I've read your blog for so long now, check in almost daily, and while you don't know me, I feel a little like I do know you. I enjoyed so much hearing your voice (not at all how I expected you to sound). You are amazing. I know that life has got some great things in store for you and I'm just so blessed to get to read your story and follow along.

That was really a good speech Jennifer. Good for you! I haven't been on the computer as much as I used to be--been sewing on quilts and doing other stuff.
I hope you get accepted soon in one of the MFA programs.
Not knowing anything about MFA, I googled it and found out that they really let people suffer and wait to hear something. That would be great if you got in at Boise.
I still pray for you and knoiw that God has great things in store for you. You are still young and working harder than anybody I know.
love you,
