Training and Channeling

I started training a new broadcasting student today and she rocks. She's the coolest Nancy I've ever met. There are lots of sweet, reserved, golly-gee Nancys out there, but a nineteen year-old hip and happenin' Nancy is a rare find and I feel privileged to have run across one. Nancy is from the same training program as the last student I mentored (Tommy), and we'll be working together for the next couple of months.

It feels weird going to work and not doing anything live on the air. I'm still doing my shows that air in other markets and various other things, but I definitely feel like I'm in limbo land. It's an opportunity to hone my patience and trusting skills though and I will do my best to seize it. Angela said last night, "The more you enjoy this time, the more you trusted God." I love that. It's license to be stress-free and hopeful. Mostly I like it because she used the past tense verb and that implies this transition period will indeed end at some point. :-) I just have so much drive to do more with my life I feel like I'm going to bust out of my skin sometimes. I just have to find the right place to channel it.

I did actually bust some skin yesterday. I was sitting at the kitchen table working on the laptop as usual and I dropped something on the floor, but when I reached down to pick it up I forgot to make sure the neighboring chair was out of the way and I smacked my forehead on the corner of it and created a small bloody slit. Note to self...don't channel energy into the corner of a wooden chair. It's a learning experience.
