Wow, it's been awhile since I've been on. I'm at the library, holding my 2-yr. old niece, so excuse any mistakes. lol. Anyways, lets see...life has been busy lately. April 25th I moved in with my older sister about 2 hrs and 15 minutes from home, and on Monday I began job hunting. Up here I can ride my bike to work, but back home I'd have to have Dad drive me, and that really wouldn't work out too well, so I came here. May 4th I got hired on at McDonald's, the place I actually wanted to get hired on at, so I was super-excited. I just really thanked God for letting me get the job I wanted.
The 29th I went to youth group up here. Ah, such a great bunch! So friendly and accepting. It was just really great. And I've been going to the church every Sunday; usually Sunday school too, for the youth at 9:30 Sunday mornings too. And youth group is tonight, so I'm excited about that. I love going.
May 11th I worked for the first time. Only for two hours, but it was pretty cool. I worked the cash register. Then I worked Wednesday and Thursday. I missed youth group, so I was disappointed. But I was happy to be getting more hours in, so I wasn't going to complain. Wednesday, though, I had an amazing trainer! He was so patient, really friendly...he was great!
Saturday, the 16th, the manager called and told me to come in. See, I had been scheduled to work 6am-1pm, but then a different mananger changed it to 4-8. So I went in at seven, and boy was it hectic! I don't know the breakfast stuff, so I did poorly on the cash register.
Saturday was also my little brother's second birthday. He was born May 16th 2007, but didn't live. It was really hard on all of us, and still is. I still miss him...But thru difficult times ya just gunna lean more on God, remember that His ways aren't our ways. And that no matter what, He still loves us. He won't abandon us.
Anyways, Sunday my sister and her family went home for the day, but since I was working 2-8 I couldn't go. I was really disappointed about that, but I survived.
Today Dad and Nicole came up. They brought Tori back, because she stayed up there for a few days so she could go to the zoo with them.
And here I am, at the library. Anyways, I will be working tomorrow, Friday and Saturday. Saturday will be a loong day; I work 2-11:30!
Well, I'm gunna get off here. Lord bless!
