So much has been going on lately.... I'll do my best to update you guys.
I haven't updated in forever because I couldn't stand to look at my blog. I didn't like what I saw and I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with it... so I just lived and neglected to blog. Sorry....
Here I am... with a new layout and updating my blog. I don't know where to start so I'll just type.
Life after my wreck has been so hard. I've had to learn to put my ego aside and ask for rides when I would much rather have a ride of my own. I had to depend on my friends, my mentor, my boyfriend at the time, and just go with the flow. smh... The lady that I hit tried to sue me for $15,000. lol I still don't understand that one. I mean, I'm the one who walked away with a totaled car. Her cousin drove her car from the scene. Where the heck did $15,000 come from?! Medical bills?!... Girl please. My money has been tight. I haven't been able to shop the way I want. I have a new apartment that isn't decorated the way I want and I DON'T HAVE CABLE!!! What the heezy?! Sounds bad, right?!
Well, I've been patient. God and I have talked about it on several occasions. All I knew to do was be patient, have faith, and watch God work. Looks like things are turning around... I mean, I had to file bankruptcy to keep the lady from garnishing my wages. I was once a bit upset about this, but I've learned to find the positive in the situation. God hasn't left me. In fact, God is really working over time for me. My credit was already jacked... The bankruptcy just may work out for my good. Scratch that... It WILL work out for my good. My friends were right there to help. My mom has been sick, so I was able to bring her truck back with me after visiting a couple of weekends ago. I was offered a job that pays more, with weekends and holidays off. I wasn't expecting that at all. It just fell in my lap one day.
See God is good. If I had any control, I wouldn't have written my story like this, but I can honestly say that I am happy with the way things are going. I've learned so much in this time and I still have joy! I AM a bit shocked by a thing or two and never would have expected things to end the way they did... but I can't focus too much on that. What's for me... and who's for me... IS FOR ME! And I honestly don't have the energy to worry or stress about it. lol As you can see, I'm not really ready to talk about that so much. You may be able to read between the lines... *shrugs*
School is going...umm... ok, I guess. I'm not as excited about it anymore. With all that's been going on, my focus has been off. Things are turning around though and my advisors have been pretty understanding. I don't regret this decision at all. Ashford University is definitely for me.
So yeah,... Life is good and I look forward to every lesson, every blessing, every DAY!!
Until next time,

Ooooooooooooooh, GLORY * doing a rapid, two-step shout dance in place whilst chicken- flapping my arms *
ReplyDeleteGirl, I'm not even playin', your story is a testimony of massive proportions. I can't even wrap my head around going through what you've gone through with your wreck and all. When my freakin' car broke down, I thought I saw God part the skies and I was reaching to go on to glory.
But you have been so patient and so faithful toward God. And it makes me want to stop and take a look at MY OWN FAITH. It's not where it needs to be, because if I got in a wreck in March and I STILL didn't have a car... smh... me and God would NOT be on good terms, lol.
I'm so excited about what God is doing in your life. God is really flexing his muscles. Thank you, Stix, for being a blessing with your testimony without even knowing it! LOL
