so far so good!

Hello friends on this gloomy and cloudy day- we've been expecting rain for a few days now, but it looks like today will be the day it comes down on us! A little refreshing is always good :) So my new job has been going very good and I am liking it everday more and more! Its alot to remember and detailed, but I am catching on and hope to know everything SOON!! It frustrates me not knowing ALL already, but its the OCD in me I guess! LOL... I love being able to have the days in between to get caught up with housework or any errands that need to be done or of course subbing with the kiddos at school! Yesterday one of the agents grilled fish for us @ lunch and it was de-lish! I took my special punchbowl cake as dessert in hopes they would like and yep it was a hit!! They loved it. So when I blog it destresses me, seriously! Id like to vent a little as well today-- ok so Im in a state of confusion with the way people are towards God. To me personally I think we should praise and glorify Him everyday and at all times. Our ups and downs equally! Why is it that some only turn to Him in times of need or want? Does God abandon us off and on? No He doesnt! I know I cant change the world but when I try to light a lil flame at least and am turned down or ignored altogether, that hurts... God willing, I will be attending another womens retreat in Saragoza, TX on April 30-May 2nd. I am really excited and am taking my mom and aunt and hopefully my wonderful cousin. I have invited a few friends but havent heard back from them, I still hope and pray though that I will hear a "yes I'll go" even if its last minute! Leslie's recital is this weekend and I cant wait to see her shine on stage! She loves to dance and perform so I know she will do GREAT! well until next time, much love to all! Yess :)

catch up time!!!

Ok so I have been away from blogging way tooooo long! But Im back!! :) So many things have happened that I dont even know where to begin!!! We have continued to be soooooooooooooooooo blessed in all aspects our lives. To start off and by far the most important to me is my health. It has been one month since I was taken off the meds and my platelet count has maintained itself in normal range!! PRAISE GOD!!! I love Him!!! Easter weekend was so fabulous, it had SO much more meaning to me than any other year. My relationship with our Savior has grown so much closer that I truly feel His presence especially at time of our Sunday mass. We have been attending bible study weekly as a family and rosary at church every Wednesday and Thursday communion service as well. I have seen many of my close friends also have an awesome turn around towards His word and it makes me so happy. He is Love and Life, I wish ALL the ppl in the world realized this NOW! So.... since Ive been unemployed as of May 2009, I have prayed that God guide me in the path He wants and not mine. We have been blessed throughout this time, yes I have been able to sub at the school but we all know that isnt even considered part time, only "as needed"... but even with this, we have managed to make it just dandy! well... last week a knock on my door (literally) God sent of course :) It was a job offer! I prayed extra hard that if this was meant to be for me then so be it and if not then oh well. I went for my working interview/ trial day on Tuesday and by end of that day I was already filling out new hire paperwork!!! YAY! It will only be M-W-F 8-5, but its fab because I will still be able to either have my days off to do what is needed around the house or continue to sub for mu school kiddos!!! :) The pay is not what I expected or that I thought I deserved, however with quick reflection I realized that if this was a start from the bottom kind of deal, then I accept the challenge! In the long run, the learning experience I gain from this new job is def worth it!!! It makes me happy to be able to be back in what I love doing... Im a paperwork kinda gal and I love working with the public! I love helping out others!!! So, I hope that all goes well day after day! Ohhhh and only 33 days of school left of this year!! WOW, time flies! I for sure love the warmer weather also! This coming week is Leslie's last week of dance for this year and her recital is Sunday the 18th! Its always a bittersweet moment when we see her perform, we are glad the rushing is over to get her to class week after week and so happy to see her SHINE on stage, but then sad that she wont dance until September again when classes resume. :) Family life is super duper and my friends are totally awesome! I love you all! well until next time, much love! Yess :)
