Change is inevitable.

Good or bad, like it or not, to be or not to be, yadda, yadda, yadda.
To change perspective and course because something came along that was not a surprise, unexpectedly turned out to be better than you thought it could be.
My job is one of those unexpected turns... I took the turn with full certainty that I was making it as a financial move that needed to be made in order to keep my sanity. Well, it so far has turned out to be a road with no major career hurdles, but has the means to be something great. It's a road that will be traveled to see where it takes me at this point. I have put my faith into the Lord and will put it in his hands. I pray that it takes me to a path of success and a career move that will take me down paths that I have not been before. I have a great mentor, and am working on getting to know how he ticks and learn all I can from his experience.
My 'I had it moment' that happened in December has lead me to loosing 20 pounds, going to the gym at least 4 times a wk and feeling great! I fit into cloths that I haven't fit in, in 3-4 years. I can't believe the difference in how I look and feel. Having time for yourself is amazing and something I had forgotten how important it is.
As for my Faith, I am auditioning for my church Choir on August 19th... I want to meet someone with a strong Faith base. I am getting more involved in my church, these are the kind of people I want to surround myself with.
Family is the best support you can have. My cousin Tracey and I are as close, if not closer that we were as kids. I love that I spend at least 2-3 wk-ends a month with my aunt and my cousins:) and of course my dad still comes over once a wk for dinner, my sister and I are living together to help each other out financially and in raising our girls, we have plans every Tuesday to hang out at our mom's and watch whatever show she is into for the season. I am faithful to watch The Bachelor or Bachelorete and So You Think You Can Dance... My mom and my sister add America's Got Talent and American Idol to their choice of shows, but are nice enough to catch up on those when I am not there:) hehehe
Jayden is very busy this year. She has gymnastics every Monday and we are also preparing for a concert on August 19th and 20th. So gymnastics has turned into 3 days a wk until that is over. She has spent the last 2 wks in day camp at her gymnastice center and put on a mini concert with modeling, dance routine and singing routines! She is doing fabulous. Actually we will be adding ballet to her extra activities this fall.
Jessica is working all summer at Dairy Queen, saving for cosmo school, college and a place of her own as soon as she graduates. No volleyball this year since cosmo is taking up so much of her extra class time.
All in all, the Lord keeps pouring the blessings and although they are changes that I did not expect, I am greatful for every single thing the Lords puts my way. He knows what the method to the maddness is.
God bless all my friend and family. I am so blessed.
