Gratefulness

It's already been a week and as every day passes, I am amazed at the blessings that God continues to pour my way. It is absolutely overwhelming!!

Before I get started, make sure you are following me on Twitter! www.twitter.com/UnhurdChyld !
This week has been very successful. I mentioned that I had been on my hustle in a previous post and by that, I do mean LEGAL hustling. I was already braiding hair as a side job (which I still do on occasion and if time permits), and now I've taken on Mary Kay as well. Lord knows I was skeptical about it, but I've been doing a really good job with it and I have great clientele! If you're interested in purchasing product, check out my website www.marykay.com/angel_e you can order from there and get free shipping!

T-3 days (The "T" stands for Today...in case you didn't know ;-)) and my mommy will be here! I'm so excited because I finally got the guest bedroom prepared for her! She has a brand new mattress and I thank God for a church member that gave me a queen bed frame (regular price is $50!). Since I was only left with the bed that I've had since I was 15, I was willing to let my mother take my bed while I took the couch. But God worked it out and I was able to get her new mattresses.

But enough about that. I don't want to make these posts too long because I'm afraid y'all will get bored, so I try to save some for the next post. But I'll just do a quick ramble...I haven't had any real help with my son since my mom visited for two weeks in January so this is going to such a blessing. My Pooh Bear finally decided to quit being lazy and now he's holding his own bottle (Go Pooh Bear!!)...., I'm past ready to move back to Texas to be with real friends. I feel like I have no support system out here and at times, things get really difficult. I guess that's when I should take it all to God in prayer. 

And with that said, it brings to my last rambling thought. I've been trying to strengthen my relationship with Christ and this journey hasn't been the easiest but it feels so great to know that I'm being obedient and listening. I go to church with anticipation of a blessing and praise on my mind but it seems like when I get there, something is holding me back most of the time and I can't fully let go. I'll have to go into more detail later though...my eyelids are closing. Until next time...
