My Salted Carmel Blended Latte! mmmm |
So back to our chat. This week has been a bit calmer. I would talk about how cool our God is. That we have had our van for sale for almost 2 months, with little interest. The other day I prayed over it and POW we get like 10 phone calls for it, in like a 24 hour period! WOW, the guy buying it is a grandpa who moved out here to be closer to his grand kids, and wants a van to tote them around in! So cool!
I would tell you that Im so happy right now! Little things in life are just unfolding and working out, new friendships and old, this homeschooling thing has got me jittery, and Im so excited about it. Ive taken a step back in things I was doing, to focus on my family and those closest to me. Im still trying to figure it out, Im learning to be a friend again. I used to be, as Ive said, such a bubbly outgoing person, who could really care less what someone thought. Things have changed so much in the past few years, the want and need to feel accepted, and beyond that the want and need to feel needed. That feeling, the feeling of not being needed sucks! I KNOW Im needed/wanted in my family, and I KNOW thats most important. I am human, more so, I am female! AHHHH BUT like I said, this week has been pretty great for the most part! Some lows, but mostly highs.
Back to homeschooling, I met up with my mentor and a few ladies this week, BOY OH BOY! Im excited. We talked about a few things, we had a blast. It just confirmed Im doing exactly what Im supposed to be doing! And that I can do it! I love the support that I have, and cant wait for the year to get started!
Remember a few weeks back, I mentioned a friend was pregnant again after a couple miscarriages.... well.... she is STILL PREGNANT! I couldnt be happier for her thus far, and am continuing to lift her and her wee one up in prayer, will you continue as well!?
I have a fun weekend planned! What are you doing?!?!
Thanks for stopping by, see you next week!

So happy about your friend still being pregnant! I had the same situation happen this week. My BFF had a miscarriage last fall and has been endlessly trying to pregnant since. She just found out and had her first ultrasound the other day and all looks good! Praise God for these little babies! Hope your weekend is even better then you expected!
ReplyDeleteYES, she just had her ultrasound this week as well!!! YES! Praise Jesus!!!
DeleteI LOVE Portfolios! I miss that coffee dearly :-( Saddest part about not living I'n long beach any more! Glad to see such an update full of happy news!!
ReplyDeleteSuch an amazing place, my brother has been going for years! LOVE it!
DeleteI totally need to try that place out. I love me some blended coffee, and amazing news about your van so awesome!! It's stuff like this that makes me wonder how anyone could not believe in our almighty God!
ReplyDeleteOh Alissa, you have no idea, its SOOOOOOOOOOO yummy!!! MMMMMMMMMMMMM and today I watch the van drive away! YAY!
DeleteStopping by from the Coffee Date linky. I'm drooling over that coffee. I know exactly what you mean about learning to be a friend again. I was so outgoing and bubbly too, I don't know what happened but I feel so distant from people around me now. It's so hard to adjust to and realize how much i've changed. Thanks for sharing, good to know i'm not alone!
ReplyDeleteI'm having fun reading your blog some more. My sis lives in Long Beach and she took me to Portfolios. It is super yummy!! Peanut Butter mocha is right up my alley too! Are you really moving to Seattle? Or do you just like it so much you want to move here haha! I was just thinking how crazy if you really were moving here and we just met in blog land. Anyways, I'm totally going to be following you too. So, you're not the only creeper ;)
ReplyDeleteCrazy!! Hope you get to move to your dream place soon ;)
