Thank you all for prayers. They made all the difference. Most importantly she made it back to campus without mishap and has some good resolutions about not getting back in the same situation. She survived the semester. I know your prayers made a real difference to her. I will be offering some special prayers of thanksgiving tonight for all the intentions of those who posted and those who didn't but have prayed for dd over the year. Thank you so much.

Thanks for prayers for dd. This is minor in the scheme of things but dd has had no sleep - literally none; is trying to buy a printer between Masses so she can print off the last two pages of her paper (she submitted on-line but did not get receipt and is hoping it did go through). She e-mailed the prof but has not heard back from him. Her printer went dry just as she was printing out her paper (and neither she or roomie were able to find toner for it anywhere - think maybe we have ancient equipment) and she couldn't print the last 2 pages so her roommate could take stuff to the prof box for her. She is 1 hour away at a job and will be there till past the deadline for submission. I'm not sure what she will do if the prof will not accept a late paper submission and please, the on-line version went through.

She called while looking for the printer - cause at 5 AM this morning she fell asleep behind the wheel - thanks be to God nothing happened.

She also has to play for someone's juries later today.

Please pray for her safety (she still has 1 hour drive back), that somehow her paper did go through and that she manages to function long enough to complete whatever she needs to do. Also please pray for her discernment about next semester (we know she is not taking 12 hours - but this hour drive for her job is really tough).

Also if someone will say an Ave for her safe travels home later - after Christmas Masses since she has to be there for her job.

Thanks so much.

Janet

WOW! She is really burning the candle at both ends.    Praying for her safety, that she may soon rest, and that the paper situation will work itself out positively.

Thankful that she did not have an accident this morning, and praying she may have safe travels through the holiday season.

I will definitely pray that she can stay safe while still being on top of things.
Also, may the angels bring her home safely.

So glad she made it safely! Will continue to pray for her as she sets up her next semester and as she travels through the holidays.

I was praying for your intentions yesterday, Janet! I'm so relieved she got home safely and the semester is OVER! Sounds like everything worked out well. I know you miss her so dearly - I'm rejoicing that you will get a chance to visit a bit over Christmas!
