Keepin' the dreams goin'

Howdy y'all!

Well folks, all I can say is my first week of being 27 was full of a great deal of learning, putting my faith in God(which I should do everyday), and spending much needed time with people I love/care about.

I had quite a few realizations about myself yet again...or God decided to thrust them in my face and just say, "Tiff, you gotta move on past all this. I got it. Let it go, live your life for me and let your light shine. If you keep holding on, I can't do what I need to do to help you." I have a HORRID tendency to hold on to things thinking I've given them to God, when in fact I've still held onto them.  It's just human nature to think we can do things on our own when in fact, we really can't. I've been holding on to so much CRAP for such a long time, that now that I'm FINALLY letting it go I feel like a different person.  By different person I mean, that I'm ready to take on the world and my dreams. I'm FINALLY truly happy.  I haven't felt like this since the end of last summer and into August/September. I was so happy, full of life, and wanted to have fun and DID.  That's when my friendship with Nicole started to grow and we got close very quickly after that. I had so much fun over those months, met amazing new people, that are still part of my life and have stood by me through so much over the past months.  That's when you know you have true friends in your life, when they stand by you through thick and thin.  When other people would've given you the cold shoulder or turned their back on you because your life was just too dramatic. The people God blessed me with the last months of 2012 were definitely people whom I needed, yet didn't even realize how much I did.
It's true what they say, God puts people in your life for a reason, and the people he sent me were definitely to help me grow as a person, help keep my dreams alive, and to help me find myself again. Well they've all done just that for me, and it's taken some time but I'm happy, doing what I love, surrounded by people who care about me, and living each day to the fullest and letting my light shine.

I have a job that I truly love, and yes, I do know it's only been 2 days that I've worked, but my co-workers are so kind and they welcomed me with open arms. Offering to help me anyway they can, being open to all my questions, and telling me on my second shift, "You're gonna be great Tiff, you're fitting right in, we're all so happy to have you here." Being in customer service is not for everyone, but for me being around people is what I thrive on. It makes me happy to be in that kind of environment with people who love their job as much as me. I get to wear whatever I want...with the exception of jeans, I get to look nice..wear my cowboy boots and work in the Fort Worth Stockyards, what's better than that?  Well getting my writing out to the world and being an author would probably be better, but one dream at a time. ;)

I'm on track with my writing, whether it's on here blogging, writing poetry(which I actually like doing because it can be ANYTHING), writing short stories, or working on my novel. I've had so many people be supportive of my writing, that I just feel like I need to talk about it.  Creativity is my nitch, and even though I have a love for animals(always will) doesn't mean my heart could handle doing work with animals. I already know I wouldn't be able to handle working hands on with animals because if something happened to them my heart would break, and I would cry for them. Writing...now that was always something fun I could do...I didn't necessarily like writing papers for school...like research papers were the worst. However, when I was in second grade I remember writing just silly stories...and I remember how much I enjoyed it. I guess it was simply a hidden love of my for years, and when I found it, I didn't want to lose it because it makes me so happy and makes me feel...ME.  The dream of becoming someone with my writing is so close to happening, and it just brings an instant smile to my face to know that I took the plunge and sent out some stories. The fear is no longer holding me back, I just have to keep it from crawling back in. When you want something bad enough fear always has a way of crawling back in when you push it out. That's where God comes in though. Putting that faith in God, and knowing that EVERYTHING happens on his time table, and when HE wants it to happen.  His timing is truly perfect and I will never doubt him again...which I shouldn't have done in the first place. I am human though and I make mistakes, I'll own up to that, and them. I working on being a better person, and being the REAL me, because dang SHE IS FUN! :)

I'm keepin' the dreams goin' y'all. I'm not giving up on ANY of my dreams. If you don't dream BIG what's the point right? I have friends that are pushing me...Nicole, Nikki, Cam,Waleed, Norma, Ryan, Amber, Timmy, Ashley V, Ashley A...they all support me in all of my dreams. Telling me not to give up on them. That one day they'll happen. That endless support from them helps me to carry on along with that favorite verse I brought up in an earlier post. Philippians 4:13.  It's not in me to dream small, or have dreams that are easy to fulfill. I like to push myself and give myself something to look forward to. I know I will succeed in everything I do, because I have my family, friends, and last but not least God. "I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me." THAT verse gets me through each day, even when I'm having days like today, where I've been in the best of moods. :) A lyric from a Tim McGraw song also helps me, yes that's a little strange but it does. it says "With a handful of faith and a heart full of love carry on". Every time I listen to country music I remember why I love it so much. I reaches my heart and what I'm feeling. Yes, rock is fun so is some pop, but country...it has my heart. It's all about reaching for the stars and fulfilling your dreams. It's taken me awhile to find myself, and now that I have, and I'm happy, doing what I love with people I love...there is no stopping me. I can only go up from here, with God and all the amazing people in my life...I have no reason to be depressed ever again.


One day all my dreams will come true and I pray that the people that are in my life NOW, will be in my life when the dreams are no longer that...but my reality and what I do everyday.
You have to keep your dreams goin' because if you don't the devil thinks he won, and no one has time for him to win...so don't let him. :)


Well I guess that's all I have to say y'all.
God bless.

I really do LOVE Spring and Summer

Afternoon bloggers!

Spring and Summer in Texas are always my favorite seasons, mainly because Summer can reach all the way into October and that's when my best memories are usually made. Even though Spring is mid way through I've made some pretty dang good memories thus far; and I know that there are more to come. 

I do enjoy the month of March because I have several friends whose birthdays are in that month, along with Spring Break and St. Patrick's Day. :) Seeing as I'm Irish, I do indeed like to celebrate the holiday and hope to one day spend the holiday in Ireland.  I do have BIG dreams for myself. I only live once and I plan to live each day to the fullest. Two of my favorite moments from March have to do with two people that are very close and dear to my heart. I spent time with that young man...you know the one I mentioned in previous posts who is my "man-spiration". ( yeppers just made up a new word)  I enjoy any amount of time I'm allotted with him because he is so busy, with work, other friends, and trying to stay positive...which isn't the easiest thing for him to do. I also spent time with my dear friend Nikki, and we met Brian Louis on St. Patrick's Day and he is helping me with my writing.  Now what I mean by that my dear bloggers, is that he has two agent friends and told me if I'm serious about wanting to become a writer(and I am) that I should stop figeting and holding myself back and take the plunge and see what they have to say.  Any type of criticism is helpful.  So...I took that plunge and sent a couple stories to him, and he in turn sent them to his agent friends. I will not even begin to say that I wasn't a little scared of what the outcome would be, because that would be a blatant lie, and I don't want to lie to y'all. I was terrified honestly, mainly because one of the stories has SO much of me and my life in it...or how i want it to go...however you want to put it.  It's very close to my heart and what scared me the most about sending it was that someone would simply laugh and say it was inadequate work and that I should scrap it. Which I would not do no matter what. People are entitled to their opinions and that's fine, and I would take any criticism I received and use it to better my talent that God gave me.  

Then we move on to my birthday month and I honestly wasn't looking forward to it too much, only because I'd been on a job search for so long and was getting a little down...or more than a little down, however I tried to find the positive and I did.

I got to spend time yet again with that young man and my dear best friend Nikki, and sense my other best friend Nicole isn't here to continue making crazy memories, I have make some without her. ;) Spending days with this young man always brighten my whole mood, because we can sit and talk, sit in silence, watch movies, play video games, play pool, ANYTHING, and I enjoy his company.  His life is all hectic and he constantly kicks himself for past mistakes, talks to girls, then stops because he just gets bored I guess, or he finds something wrong. I'm not 100% sure but until he can forgive himself he isn't going to be truly happy, and he can't be with someone when he still loves his ex. Oh boy howdy does he ever still love her. Breaks my heart, but all I can do is be there for him and support him in ANY way I can. So we just spend time together and enjoy the company. :) I went to a Zac Brown Band concert with Nikki 2 days before my birthday and I have to say it was AMAZING! We weren't far from the stage and they sound, in my opinion, better live than on their CD's. :)  My love for country music has pretty much come back in full swing and my love for ALL things country is right there with it.  I found that out while listening to them sing, and I fell in love with country all over again. 

The month is almost over, and I have to say the last days of my birthday month have been just as amazing as the month itself.  I started my new job yesterday/last night and I LOVE IT! It's such a fun atmosphere and I'll have to get used to hosting again, and the computer system...putting reservations in the computer system and simply getting accustomed to the whole system in itself.  I want to do the best I can at this job, have fun, and enjoy everyone who works there. I already really like the other two hosts and they have welcomed in open arms. The GM...dad gum...he is so down to earth and easy to be around. It's such a close knit little family atmosphere and I'm so glad I found the ad on Craigslist and applied. Turns out that I went to high school with the Event Coordinator and one of the servers dates a girl I went to grade school with. I'm comfortable in the atmosphere, even though it is a 4 STAR restaurant and that will take getting used to, and so will just how the system works, but I know I'll get the hang of it. I have great teachers and they welcome any questions I have, which is a welcome change. I'll be working mostly nights starting off and I'm fine with that.  I get a week off in December and July, I get the Monday's of Memorial and Labor Day off...I mean this is a dream restaurant job. Keeping positive and knowing I can do it is all I have to do. :)

May is just around the corner and then that brings June, July, August and so on. I'm so excited to see what the next couple months bring me, and the memories that are sure to be made. Well I guess that's all I have for right now. I'm hoping to possibly hang out with some friends tonight after work , tomorrow or Monday sense I'm off.  I hope everyone enjoys this very pretty Saturday. ;)

God Bless.

Following the path laid before me

Hello bloggers.


I'm finding that if I put all my faith in God that he will provide me the right path to take to continue on the journey he has made for me, everything simply falls into place.

One of my all time favorite books in the bible is Philippians, and my favorite chapter is 4.  Anytime I'm in a rough patch, and feeling lower than low and the devil is pounding away on my self esteem, my hope, and me period, I turn to the Bible for solace. Yes, my friends are amazing and help me also, but in the end God is the one that provides me through.  If it weren't for HIM I wouldn't have the people in my life right now that I do.

 If I hadn't chosen to go down the path that lead me to Movie Tavern, I wouldn't have met Nicole, Norma, Ashleigh, or anyone that has had an impact on my life from that job. With a clear mind and heart I know now that Movie Tavern was such an intense learning experience for who I wanted to be, the kind of people I wanted in my life on a day to day basis, and for figuring out what I wanted to do with my life. I came into contact with so many diverse personalities at that job, and each person was so utterly unique in what they brought to the table and to my life. There are so many creative souls in that company and I believe that comes with a love for movies. There was Taylor, oh Taylor. He was probably one of my favorite men at that job. He had a passion for God, Backstreet Boys, Jesse McCartney(we have most of our passions in common) and he wants to sing...and he's dang good at it. He's an amazing Christian and I'm grateful to have had any amount of time with him in my life. Oh, I can't forget Uriel, Fern, Cassie, Omar(who I've known for YEARS), Tiffany Sitton, Brent and Juan. Each one of them has such an intense passion for what they love to do.  ALL of them are creative whether it's with photography, painting, film making, sign language or singing(yes you HAVE to be creative to sing). I believe I thrived at this job because I was around so many people like myself. Who had that strong creative gene and were passionate about what they want to do with their lives. EVERY person at that job was passionate about what they wanted to do, and they will stop at NOTHING to fulfill those dreams and make their passions a reality for them. I love each and every person I came in contact at that job, even when I didn't think I would like them, they all taught me something, and I will never be able to repay them for the things they taught me about being true to who I am.

I've been at LOTS of jobs and each has taught me something different, but honestly I think Movie Tavern was EXACTLY what I needed and WHERE I needed to be for the year and a half I was there. Every job has it's negative aspects, and now that I'm out of it I can see all the positive that were hard to see while I was walking those halls. That path lead me to my now best friends, to finding the real me, and for finding my way back to what I love. I have a BAD tendency to like certain things just because my friends do, and as I've grown over the past year and a half with the friends I have now; we are all unique in our own way, like SOME of the same things, and we also have our OWN likes. We accept each other for who we are and we spread our horizons out to try new things. With doing that we either like what we find at the end of the horizon or not. Either way we were open to knew things. To me that's a HUGE deal. Being open to new things...if your'e not you'll miss out on all the little treasures God places on your path. Now, missing out on treasures...no one has time for that.

My dad and I had lunch together today, and during that lunch I got a call/voice mail from a job I interviewed at on Wednesday and NAILED the interview and got the job. I'll be starting this new job tomorrow, and I can NOT wait. My dad was the first person I wanted to share the news with because I've missed sharing so many things with him over the last 5 years and I'm trying to make up for lost time.  He sent me the best text I could have ever asked for after I told him I took the job. It said, "Great. I'm so proud of you!! Hold your own! Do something for yourself. Be prideful in everything you do!" I grew up not hearing he was proud of me often, and now every time we talk I get an "I love you" and most of the time I get a "I'm proud of you". Being a daddies girl, it means the WORLD and more to know that he is proud of me, because that's all I've ever wanted to do. I've wanted to be someone he could be proud of, and I know what you're thinking,"You have always been"; but believing that was always hard for me.  Not anymore.

I'm making time to write everyday, I'm going to set aside time to workout some each day(maybe try a free gym membership and see how I like it), and live each day like it's a blessing from God; because honestly each day I wake up is a blessing. I'll only be on this Earth one time and I need to make the most of it. Living for God, letting his light shine out of me(which it does in it's own way) having fun with friends, making new friends, taking leaps of faith, not being afraid to take chances, and of course LIVE. LAUGH.LOVE. :) I won't be afraid to put myself out there with LOVE any longer. I know God has someone amazing picked out for me, and I THINK I might know who it is, but I'm leaving it all in Gods hands because he knows my outcome.

I don't know where the end of the path I'm on will lead me, or who I will journey down it with in the future.  All I know is I'm not afraid to walk down the winding path with God, my friends, and family at my side for the journey. All I have to do is follow the bread crumbs and see where they lead me. ;)

I hope you all liked my little insightful blog. It was an eye opening couple weeks for me. I just wanted to share some of the things I've learned with all of you.

God Bless.

Road block ahead...but there is light to be shed on it

Well hello bloggers!

I'm now a 27 year old TEXAN GAL! I must say that with turning this age I found something VITAL out about myself. God did not build me to be at a sit down job. I need a fast pace environment to work in. I guess it's part of the creative person in me. :)

After the three days I spent as a Loan Processor...and literally sucking at it...I was expected to learn the job in 45 minutes and all that it entailed, and I must say...loan processing..NOT easy and something that can be learned in 45 minutes with systems going down every couple hours.  I have never felt so belittled at a job as I did at that job.  I was called stupid and ignorant only after being there for 3 hours. I worked my TAIL off trying to learn that job. Making myself notes so that I could do the job to the best of my abilities and THAT was not enough for them.  In the end, I believe this was a quick lesson that God was teaching me.  Just because I'm 27 doesn't mean I need an office job. Some people thrive on that environment, and it fits with their personalities perfectly. I know now that my thought process behind the fact that I needed to be in that environment was not in the least bit true. I know what I want to do in  life...I want to be a writer, teacher and possibly own my own bookstore/cafe(that's a BIG possibility and I'm still toying with that idea). For me to finish school I do believe that being in a customer service job is best for me. I enjoy the atmosphere of being around people, and moving up in companies. Training people, teaching them the job. It's who I am and I'm proud of that.

I shouldn't run from who I am, which I guess is what I was doing. Believing that just because I'm another age older I need to have an office job, when in all honesty office jobs are not me. I like working hard, whether it's the food industry or otherwise. If I could do manual labor I would, but I get to dang hot too dang quickly and I would pass out and that would simply be unacceptable. Haha. I guess you could say that the wanting an office job was the road block...or construction zone, and now that I've made my way through it, I have wide open road ahead of me. 

My dad has been in customer service for as long as I can remember, and I believe I learned a great deal of my work ethic from him. My mother has also taught me a great deal, but watching him at a young age in our store and how he dealt with  people...he taught me a great deal and I doubt he realizes that. I was asked yesterday in an interview who I learned my work ethic from and after a second I said my dad. It was true, and the man I was talking to simply smiled as I spoke about how my dad worked at our family business when we had it. I still remember how much he loved that store, and how hard it was when we had to close it. I love my dad so much and I've learned so much from him. I pride myself on being like him...I didn't use too honestly. However now, that I'm older and have been through everything I've been through, I'm so blessed to have him as a dad. I'm glad people say I look like him, in fact it puts an instant smile on my face when I hear, "you are a cookie cutter of your father." Not everyone can say that they look more like one parent than the other, but I can. I love my momma more than she will ever know, but to know I have the strong genes I have...whether they be good or not, they make me who I am. Yes , I'm stubborn beyond any amount of words, but without that stubbornness I wouldn't push myself to be the best I can be. I don't like to give up on things...I get that from my dad. It can be both good and bad...me being as stubborn as I am, however I like to try and use my stubbornness for good rather than bad. If that makes any sense whatsoever. If I weren't stubborn I wouldn't have stuck with my writing like I have and sent it to my friend to see if anything good would come of it. 

I've had so much support over the past couple months and I'm so grateful/blessed to have everyone in my life that I do.  They help me to remember the positive and the little things in life. The negative only brings us down and doesn't come from God. I thank him everyday for providing for me in any and every way. Teaching me new things about myself and teaching me that I need to depend on him. I have a HORRID tendancy to depend on other people and when I do that...I lose sight of what's important. I need to stay on track and I think...no I know I will be staying on track. With every paycheck I have from here on out I will be putting money away to get out...and to see my best friend Nicole in Florida.  She is ALWAYS telling me it's not a big deal that I haven't made it out there to see her, but she has been a rock for me through this. Sometimes I think that she may get sick of me with all the up and down behavior I've had lately. With her positive attitude and her never ending support...being here for me everyday even while she is STATES away means more to me than I could ever express to her. So, thank you Nicole for all that you've done for me. I've known you a year and a half but it feels like I've known you my whole life. Thank you for listening to me vent about boys, family, work and life in general. For ALWAYS being here for me no matter what. For being the best friend I've always wanted and never had. I trust you with my life and that is saying a lot, because you know the trust issues I've had. I love you and I''m so utterly proud of you and lucky to have you as a friend. :)

Alright now that I did that I can move on. I may be on the search now for another job, BUT I know what I'm good at, and I'm sticking with it. No more running or being afraid. I will survive through this just like I have everything else with God leading the way, and my friends and family by my side. Keeping my mind on all the positive rather than letting the negative take hold. I hate negativity and refuse to let it take hold of me ANYMORE. 

Well I hope everyone enjoyed my light bulb moment. haha. 

Have a blessed night and remainder of the week.

OH, and happy early birthday to my dad. His birthday is on Friday, and I get to see him tomorrow. :) Lunch date with my dad and I CAN'T wait! :) Daddy's girl to the core. 

Friendship, Growth, Love, Loving country...all in 26 years

Holy mother of pearl...

Well it's hit me blog world. I'll be turning another year older in just 6 days, and my life is finally headed in the direction I've been wanting it to for months now. Everything is truly God's timing and I must be sure to keep my redhead wrapped around that fact from NOW ON!

I start my new job as a Loan Processor on Wednesday, and I'm very excited about this new job and the skills I'll acquire while doing this job. I've learned so much at my past jobs about the person I want to be, about the kind of jobs that I thrive at, and the kind of work I want to do when I settle down. I do believe I learned the most at my job at Movie Tavern. I got a great deal of hands on learning there, with how the company truly works, and what all goes into the job on a day to day basis.

I have the best people I could ever ask for in my life at this particular juncture, and I know they are all in my life because I need them, and because God put them here for a reason. I'm 26 almost 27, and I haven't had such an amazing supportive group of friends in ages. I honestly don't know what my life would be like without them in it, and I mean that. I feel like I've known this new group of friends since I was young, when in fact I've only known a couple of them a year or less. It always mazes me how God knows exactly the kind of people I need in my life and when I need them. I want all my childhood friends know that I cherish all of the memories I have with them, and how I wish that we could reconnect, because without those childhood friends I wouldn't know the kind of people I want/need in my life.

I've had the most crazy/insane 26 years, and honestly, even though this year has been rocky and full of moments where I was forced to stand on my own two feet and grow as a person. During the duration of this year, my relationship with my sister grew to where we could talk about writing together and what our dreams are in a way we haven't been able to in the past. My dad came back into my life and it is amazing how much stress was lifted off my shoulders when that day finally came. When my sister told me she reached out and he was open to starting over. Ever since that day, it's a blessing to know I have him back. We may not talk everyday, but it's amazing to know that I can go to him when I need advice or when I just need my dad. I'll never take him for granted again, that is for sure. I made several lifelong friendships that have helped me through some VERY rough times in my life and I love them with all my heart. The support Nicole, Norma, Nikki, Ashley, Ashleigh, Ashley, Amber, Stephanie, Cameron,Waleed, Ryan F, and Brian have been in my life has been...hard to put into words. Of all of these amazing women, and you ALL mean so much to me, but Nicole, Ashley V, Ashley A, and Nikki, I need you all to know something. Your unyielding support of everything I do is...unimaginable. You let me vent about everything that is going on in my life, and you help me through by just being yourselves. I love you more than you could ever know. Norma, Ashleigh, Amber, and Stephanie...you four are just as amazing, and I don't want you to think you don't mean as much to me, because that is simply poppycock. ;) Each one of you brightens my day with simply being yourselves, and by being there when I need you, and I'm there anytime you need me.
Now you new men in my life. Oh goodness. There are no words to describe what all of you have done for me. You all support me in your own way, and have been a shoulder for me to lean on for a different type of support than my ladies. I want to thank all of you for being real, and for not being afraid to tell me what you really think. I love you guys. :)
  We ALL support each other in our daily lives and I want y'all to know you can count on me no matter what. No matter WHAT I'm going through nothing is more important than those I love. I took steps to being out on my own, paying for health insurance and my car insurance, and saving up money and taking the proper steps to get out. Yes, I should have taken the steps sooner, but the way I look at it, it's all happening the way God planned it. Sometimes, he uses those in our lives to help give us the extra push we need. In my case, he used my best friend Nicole Ciulla to help me make these steps. My Navy best friend is taking on the world and I'm right behind her. :)
God placed a young man in my life...one that has been an amazing friend, who has taught me about myself, what I want, who I am, helped me keep up with my writing, brought country back into my life(Nicole helped with that), and showed me that being ME, is perfectly fine. We've had a roller coaster ride of a friendship and no matter what we are both going through, we always make time for each other in one way shape or form. It may not be exactly when we want it, but it's when we NEED it.

I fell in love at the age of 26....first time...ever. Not lust like it's been so many times before, but real LOVE and I have to say it's not exactly what I thought it was going to be. it's hard, complicated, fun, and worth it. :)

I can't wait to see what God has planned for me at the age of 27, and what new things I'll learn. let the fun begin in a matter of 6 days time. :)

Take care blog world. I'll chat with you later.

Wide Open Road

Hello blog world!!!

It's been MONTHS since I've written on here and I must apologize for that. I always state that I'm going to stick to this writing on here, and yet I fall short every time. Well, seeing as my writing in general no longer has to take a back seat to my life, you won't have to wait months upon months to see how I'm doing. 

My life has been a hectic mess since about December when my best friend Nicole went into the Navy. She's been there since December 3rd, and I honestly couldn't be prouder of her. Yes, it's been one of the hardest situations I've had to deal with, going from seeing her everyday to only being able to talk via text, letter, and Facebook. I've told her a MILLION times how proud I am of her, and how watching her pursue her dreams pushes me to move forward with my dreams, goals, and hopes. She may be younger than me, but in all the honesty she acts more MY age than HALF the people I know that are close to being as old as me.

Writing has been something I've found comfort in since I was in Elementary school, but it wasn't until a couple years ago when I realized how much writing make me feel...like myself. I'll always have a love of animals, THAT will never change, and my want to help conservation of endangered species will always be there. However, when I look to the future, to see what I may be doing...I see myself writing. In some sort of career having to do with writing, whether it's me teaching and being an author, owning my own book store/cafe; or all of the above. My love for writing, the escape, the happiness I feel when I create my own world...nothing beats that. Well almost nothing.

The support I have had from my closest and dearest friends has been something that I never thought I'd have. Pushing me to not give up, throwing support my way every chance they get, and even when I least expect it. Without them I believe that my fear would get the best of me and I wouldn't keep up with all the writing I've been doing. 

Over the past months I've had people come into my life, that have brought new experiences my way and I have the opportunity to get some of my work published because of a friend God placed in my life on St. Patrick's Day this year. God has been providing for me...well forever; however it's only over the past years that I've realized how far I strayed and how things have happened to brought me back to him. I thank him everyday for the opportunities I have had and for the ones that are sure to come. 

I start a new job on Wednesday and I'm couldn't be happier for the fact that my perseverance has come through and my patience brought this opportunity to me. I'm going to be 27 in a few short weeks, and I'll finally have a BIG girl job and I'll be able to go back to school full time in the fall. :) I'm even thinking of working a little part time at a retail store to get a little extra money on the side and get discount on clothes. HAHA. :D We'll see how it all pans out. 

I have a wide open road ahead of me, and the only thing missing is someone to share it with. Yes, I should be looking for long term because I am about to be 27, but first I just want to find someone I can be MYSELF with. Someone I can have fun with and be HONEST with. Someone I can just spend a chill afternoon and night with and not EXPECT anything out of it except for his company. Yeah, I may not want to be 30 when I get married but once again, I've realized EVERYTHING is God's timing and I know he'll provide for me when the time is right for me. Not when I WANT it to happen, BUT when GOD wants it to happen. This is the hardest thing for me to remember, however just over the past couple weeks I've given everything to him and once I did that everything started to get easier and situations fell into place. :) 

Welp, I guess I made this long enough, and NOW I'm going to update my writing blog, and listen to some KILLER country music. :) Oh, yeah, since God placed Nicole and a couple other people reminded me how much I love country. I mean, come one I love the outdoors and want to live on a farm and have LAND when I get married one day. :) So OF COURSE I love country music. :D

I hope all of you are having a fabulous Friday. i swear I won't go this long without writing again. ;)

God Bless! :)
