Welcome back to Cincinnati

2 weekends ago Jaimee and I left Cincinnati to go on our separate ways. Jaimee to Chicago for Winter Retreat and Me back to Richmond to spend time with my family and Ben for the last weekend before he went back to Grove City. That weekend needed to be filled with fun but at the same time some studying because we had our first nursing exam that coming Monday. Plans changed a little and Jaimee ended up staying in Richmond because of the bad weather. Overall Jaimee and I had a wonderful weekend but let’s be honest we did not get studying accomplished. So on Sunday we both headed back to the apartment and decided we had to do some major studying because the exam was the next day Jaimee arrived back first and behold there was yet another problem with the apartment. Every time we come back there is always something new that goes wrong. This time it was blown fuses in both of our rooms. Even though it was no too big of a deal it was still very frustrating and did not get fixed in the appropriate amount of time like we were told. But anyways we finished studying that night and woke up the next morning to study some more before the first exam at 2:30. We managed to get through the test but not doing as well as we planned. That is okay though because it was only the first exam. Later that week we had a biology Lab exam so we knew we needed to study for that. In the mean time I got a letter from the court house on Tuesday saying I had been called as a witness on January 31st. I was extremely confused so I called the number on the form and find out what the whole thing was about. Well it ended up being about the traffic accident I was in on the 9th when someone rear ended me. I wasn't going to have her pay for the damage because it was very minimal, but obviously she didn't know that. So for some reason she went to the court and pleaded not guilty for running into the back of me which makes no sense at all seeing as it couldn't be anyone else’s fault. SO anyways tomorrow I have to be a court at 9 am. It will be an early morning and an extremely long day. But back to last week, we managed to not do very much studying for our lab exam but we both got A's so that’s good news. On Friday we were finally able to celebrate my birthday!! Bailey and Jaimee made me a cake! We got Chipotle for dinner! AND we got to watch the movie Courageous! It was an awesome night. The weekend then flew by with grocery shopping, church, and homework. During the weekend we found out that our past problem with the apartment had not gone away like we had hoped and prayed for. This really discourages us but we know God has a plan and somehow this will all work out. Please continue to pray for us because "it is always something" here in Cincinnati. So to sum it up we are feeling a happy homecoming to Cincinnati... not.  We hope and pray it gets better!!!
