I SOLD IT!!!!!

That's right! I sold my van today!



Thank You God!!



My sister blessed me with $400 on Friday!



Thank You God!!!



I have a beautiful deposit to make to my bank account this morning, that feels wonderful. Unfortunately, as much as I would like the money to just go towards the very behind rent, part of it needs to cover the very rubber check I wrote to daycare on Friday so the WonderTwins could keep attending! Hey, you do what you gotta do! Now, I don't usually write bad checks, especially to people who keep my children. This was considered a floater, especially since my sister gave me the money and I knew I had 2 deposits coming early in the week. But man, this blessing was beyond!

This will be a good week at work. I am speaking it into existence! There will be a lot of reading and refocusing going on, aside from the people asking me if I miss Kween, who's on vacation. I already told my manager Friday, it's not like we won't be chatting frequently anyway!

But anyway, I can devote some serious time to reading positive things and perhaps some Bible study between calls (I want to delve into Romans) if I'm lucky. The next thing on my list is getting rid of things from this house. I am seriously going to plan a yard sale for Saturday morning. I need to get neon paper for the signs, and I want those up no later than Wednesday. I think 8am to noon will be good, as long as the kids are under control. Actually, if I let them stay up late Friday night, the WonderTwins especially won't wake up til at least 930a-1030a (fingers crossed).

So that'll be one of my work projects as well, making a list of what to sell and at how much. I have a ton of clothes for starters, and then lots of household items. Prayerfully, I will end up with another 200-300 after the sale is over. And since Friday will be a payday, it'll be great to put that together and take it straight to the slumlord.

I'm still wondering if I should start applying for other jobs yet. I really believe I need to, as it is not just the hours at this one that are the problem. The pay is good and the location is convenient, but as far as flexibility, that's just not there. It's unrealistic to expect people not to need any days off between now and September because when the next open day is on the vacation calendar, because only one person can be off at a time. Yeah, that's my job right now. I would have to schedule all interviews for either after hours, or the week I'm off in July! For the remainder of my Corporate America time - however long that may be - I want to work where they treat you more like a grownup! Most days there, I really do feel like a kid.

Meanwhile, I am still praying and searching for another place to live...before they decide to kick me out!
