I'm SOO Excited!!!!!

So I just got a call from my Mom and am so pumped about the answer to my prayers just TWO days ago!!

This may seem trivial to some of you but its just an awesome sign of how God cares about even the little things!

I have a HORRIBLE couch. Its over 30 years old, sinks when you sit on it, is too short and just kind of stinks. So my Mom has been trying to find me a couch on craigslist. Tuesday she sent me a picture of a futon she was looking at for me, and I didn't like it, i told her I"d been waiting for awhile and could wait longer for one I liked.

Well with that on my mind I went to bed several hours later and was praying (i pray in bed. quietest place i can find!!) and i was thinking about the couch situation and realized how utterly selfish i had been. My Mom have wanted/needed a new couch for their new room they added on to their house for several years now, but with Dad being downsized they haven't been able to afford one. Here my Mom is needing a new couch, and is putting her wants and needs aside so that I can have one. I felt horrible for being so selfish, my parents are the most giving, selfless people I know. They have sacrificed SO MUCH for me, and now she won't even get herself a new couch because she wants me to have one more. So that night after realizing all of this i spent some SERIOUS time in prayer praying specifically for the couch that I knew my Mom wanted.

Fast Forward to today, two days later. My Mom just called, she and My Dad were heading home with a new (to them!) couch and loveseat that had just come up on craigslist!! She was even able to get the recliner couch part that she wanted!!

I almost screamed in excitement when she told me! I think she was alittle bit taken back by my genuine excitement for her untill I tried to explain it.

But wait, it gets even better! God has doubly blessed us, because she is giving me their old couch, WHICH I LOVE!!!!! and it is perfect for me!!



JESUS IS SOOO COOL!!!

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
