This is my blog… blah blah, I got the job…blah blah blah….money disappeared blah blah…got another 50 bucks…blah blah… zero motivation at all to write this today.

 

Hope that was good enough for you. Signing out. 

 

No? Crap. Fiiiine *exasperated sigh* I’ll write a real blog, but only because you begged.

I suppose you’re probably wanting me to elaborate on what I wrote above…Uhhhg. Anyway, so the first thing in my “mock blog” I was saying that this is my blog which is the most obvious thing. Haha. Second I was talking about how I got the job I had interviewed for last week, though I haven’t officially accepted it yet. . I will be starting training at the end of April. Which is good and bad. Bad because I was hoping to leave my current job faster than that, but it does give me some peace of mind knowing I have another job lined up. It’s good because I had made commitments for some things in April and I wouldn’t like to back out of them, especially knowing the situation. But that doesn’t really matter I was simply taught to never back out of agreement and commitments. Even if that meant I have to play Barbies with my little sisters after a hard day of work and no motivation to play pretend, not fun. Anyway, that was the first two things, I think this is where I click “enter” to start a new paragraph…Mrs. VandeVord am I right?

 

So the next things that I wrote in my “mock blog” were about money going missing and receiving a few more donations. So you want the weird mysterious stuff or the boring numbers? Oh wait they both deal with boring numbers, guess you have no choice. OPE. So Item #1!!!!! I was looking at my blog rn yesterday to see how many people saw my last post, and I might add it was a very small number (made me sad), and so I’m on my home page and saw that the amount of money raised was at $985.  Those of you who are thinking “hey that’s not a bad number” but to those who are my loyal people and look at my blog weekly ( should) know that the number was $1,025. I was down 40 bucks. Like a whole woppin’ 40 bucks. I was cross-referencing my personal records with theirs and match mine. So I’m not really sure where the money went, or maybe I never had the money in the first place. Don’t know, I’ll see what happens in the next few days then bring it up to the higher-ups.  NOWWWW…. To the good numbers. All three of my siblings decided to donate to me making a total of 50 bucks. Very grateful for that. I have made it a point to not expect my family to give. I want them to only if they feel God wants them too and I guess he did. So thank you, my siblings! Oh and don’t think I forgot all the others who donated too! THANK YOU!!! Thank you my loyal readers too! Share with friends and family!! Anyway, I think I’m done with numbers, you? If you said yes then you are officially my favorite, but if you said no…WHAT ON EARTH IS WRONG WITH YOU???????

 

Has anyone had a really slow week, where it feels like you have done absolutely nothing? That was me this week. I haven’t worked much so I just spend my time working on school (when I feel like it) and random things to pass the time. The best part of my week will be eating Heavenly’s Pizza. Most of you, except my Ohio family, don’t have a clue where and what this pizza is. And I am here to tell you that it is the FREAKING BEST pizza I have ever had. I would 100% recommend you to go…there’s just one problem it’s in OHIO. So unless you find yourself in the Tiffin Ohio area you are out of luck. “How am I able to eat it this weekend?” you ask. Well, my lovely aunt and uncle are coming to visit Iowa for the weekend and they are bringing my Grandma. It’s gonna be a blast. I haven’t seen them since  November. 

 

Is this the part where I’m supposed to get real deep with y’all about my spiritual journey? Dang, I knew I should have added more fuff to this. Alllllright. I’ll tell you. 

 

One of my favorite verses is this “ I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength” (Philippians 4:13), and I came across it in my readings last night though it was explained to me in a way I never thought of before. I just thought it was an obvious meaning to it. Like God gives me strength I can now do whatever. But Scazzero made a point about how we can’t use God’s strength to avoid something, change the outcome, deny or defy what he has put in front of us. We can only use his strength to work through the problem ahead. I use this verse as a chant, my one personal mantra. I use it all the time, to get me through work, run that extra mile, and dealing with exhausting people. But am I using it in the wrong context? I don’t know, just something I’ve been thinking about.

 

So there you have it I got it off my chest and managed to not die. Though I think it was touch and go there for a minute. HAHA

 

So there you have. That. Was. My. Blog. Raise your hand if you like my “mock blog” better!! *raises hand* Just me? C’mon people. I expect more from you!!

 

 Anyway…Have a GREAT day!!! Be HAPPY!! and please please please remember to PRAY!!!! Love you guys! And I’ll see you guys next Friday

  1. I love to read about your journey each week. Noticing how you are growing as a person and a friend, as a daughter of wonderful parents and a daughter of God reminds me how blessed I am to have been touched by so many wonderful people. You already know so many care about you and I know you are letting that into your heart. Besides, I just like to babble about great kids!
