God is so good!!

So last night I went to bed, and as usual had prayertime. (i pray in bed, its the only place where i'm not distracted by anything) I was praying about surviving two more days of work and I just lost it. I bawled for over a half an hour before texting Kim, and of course like the awesome best friend she is she called me right away. When I saw she was calling and knew she cared so much I lost it even more so I couldn't even answer to talk to her. Finally I decided I needed my Mom and called her at almost 10pm on a weeknight sobbing my heart out. I think I scared the life out of her. But she was able to calm me down and help me put things in perspective. Finally around 11 i laid down to go to sleep and of course ddin't sleep for a long time. Wonderful when you have to get up at 6 am for work. My eyes were so swollen this morning it was almost scary. i could only half open them so I opted for glasses. I went to work even though It almost killed me. And you know what? The day wasn't anywhere near as horrible as I thought it would be. It actually turned out GOOD. When I reminded of how MUCH God loves me it kind of just shocks me into i don't know what. I was so worried and upset about today and he took a bad situation and totally worked it around and blessed me in ways that I couldn't even have thought of! He is SO WONDERFUL!!!!!

I'll spare all the boring details, but I had a good lunch with our accounting controller, a great exit interview with my Boss, and she gave me the rest of the afternoon off and tomorrow off!! What is amazing and totally God's doing is that I had 26 hours of vacation left for this year and they are actually paying me for them! Which was great. But then she kept on and blew my socks off. I had allready accrued my vacation for next year, so I am getting paid for that as well! For those of you who struggle with math that is 66 hours of vacation that I am getting PAID for!!! Not only was this unexpected, but I had no clue, hadn't even dreamed of something like this!! It is such a huge blessing since I don't know what my pay schedule will be at PU, at the very least I would be going one week without a paycheck and now I am getting paid double for a week and a half!! GOD IS S GOOD!!! I am just so awed by his greatness and his love for me and taking care of me in ways that i could never dream. I kind of feel like standing up and singing every worship song I know at the top of my lungs.. I had better do it inside my head though, lest the cops be called on me. :)

JESUS IS COOL!!

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

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...
