It is nice to know that even in loneliness, we are not alone, and also, to hear how others have gotten through crazy nights driving or walking up ladders or baking bread.

It's happened to me when I was an intern new to my internship town and drove the wrong way home in the dark and ended up in a very middle of nowhere freaking out and crying in the car. So I turned around on the highway, kept driving and praying I would see the city soon. But I'm writing this after having climbed a rickety ladder to the top to hang some photos at the cafe. I couldn't ask anyone to hang them for me because I suggested the idea! So I got on there step by step and just remained calm. But now that I've gotten over my fear I'm settling down to something easy and calming - bread. Heh. Your stories remind me those of us who are single are not so alone in how we feel! Thank you!

Being a single girl living across the country from my family, i've been in many scary situations like that. it's better to be a wimp and be safe! try bon appetit's brick chicken that was on the cover a few months back (september maybe?) it's the juciest, crispest chicken ever! i made it for my friend whose parents used to run an asian resturant, and even she was impressed!

It was like, I didn't want to get out of the car but I didn't want to admit I didn't want to get out of the car, which sounds silly now. Anyway, YES about God's providence. I loved that you said that. As much as this whole thing frustrated me, I am thankful it happened because God showed me His love is such a tangible way.
