Part 2: Feel Me (pain and happiness)
Sometimes in life, things seem to happen all at once. "When it rains it pours", right? On may the 9th my mom and I were involved in a car accident when someone pulled out in front of us. Immediately after the accident, we tried to get out of the car, but the car was so messed up that the doors would not open. That is a scary feeling!! At first, I didn't think I was hurt, but I think that was the adrenaline. We went to the emergency room to be checked out to be sure. Thank God my mom wasn't hurt, just sore. I however chipped the bone in my thumb, busted my lip and nose, broke the wire on my braces, and had pretty bad internal bruising. I know that it could have been so much worse so I certainly count my blessings!
"And pennies make dimes and dimes make dollars,
Dollars buy gas and longneck bottles,
Beer gets a barefoot country girl swayin,
To a song that's playin on the radio station.
Bad times make the good times better"

I had been dating a new guy for about two months and things seemed to be going well, the week that my grandfather was in the hospital I saw very little of him. I expected him to be there for me a little but didn't think much of it at the time. The week after the funeral he broke up with me, where do I get these guys anyway?????? Anyway I have said all of this to tell you that even though things happen we have to keep going, life does not stop for us, it does not stop when we are having a bad day or even when we lose a loved one, but the good news is that GOOD THINGS AND GOOD TIMES are always around the corner, just when you least expect them.
BEST DAY EVER
When I turned 30, I was told by several people that the THIRTIES are the best years of your life. If you had asked me this time last year or even 3 months ago, I would say you were nuts, because things seemed to be going downhill for me at a rapid pace. BUT let me tell you that three months into my 31st year I am happy to tell you that the 30s are looking promising ;)
Last week a friend (Thanks JenJen) sent me a message telling me about a job opening that she thought I should check into. I applied not thinking I'd even get called back. Mid-week I got a phone call asking me to come for an interview. I happened to be out of town for the Dixie Chicks Concert but we made arrangements for an interview. Friday afternoon I got an e-mail offering me my DREAM JOB: an Art teacher at Wayne Preparatory Academy. I couldn't believe it and couldn't have been happier to accept the position. This job was an answer to prayers! Could it be, are things looking up? Yes, it's quite possible! Maybe my PaPa is watching over me and sent me this job, maybe it was luck, maybe it was fate; call it what you wish. All I know is that I am looking forward to this new opportunity.
XOXO
