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!!

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 ...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

Book Review: The Last Dance you Saved by LJ Evans

  Buckle Up Buttercup, because Sadie Hatley is finally getting her story!!!! And it did not disappoint at all! The only thing I didn't like about this book is that it ended. I could have kept reading for 1000 more pages.  L.J. Evans is a Masterclass in how to write Romantic Suspense (that's not so scary you can't sleep at night) with witty banter, heroines who kick butt (figuratively and literally). Her books are full of real people with real problems. And I think that's one of the things I appreciate the most about her writing. Yes, her books are an escape for me, but they also show that whatever you're going through in life, everyone else is also going through something.  In the case of Sadie and Rafe alot of those issues they contained to themselves and kept the hurt and pain inside of them, in order to be strong for others and what they thought they needed to be. But L.J. shows us that not only is it okay to let people in, but the beauty and redemption that come...
