Thankful Thursday

I'm finally back to blogging and I titled this bog Thankful Thursday because I do have a lot to be thankful for and I'd like to share it with my wonderful friends.

So, my dad lost his job and it got tough there for a while. But now, he has a new job and to top it off, he works daytime now. That makes my mom happy. And you know what they say, "If mom ain't happy, no one's happy." I'm happy that she's happy.

I started school this past Tuesday and it is 100% paid for. No bills or student loans. I am a little broke at the moment, but hey... I'm a struggling poor college kid. I'm not supposed to have money, right?

Our first Human Video practice is September 7th, and 15 people are signed up to come. I am getting so excited about this. I love these kids so much. I've been practicing some videos and goodness... I dodn't know how much I could accutally sweat. But it's a nice form of worship coupled with excersise.

Work is going pretty good. I got another raise because... well, I did my job and saved the company a pretty amount of money and problems. I work a lot (45-55 hrs.), but it has paid for school and helped my family out. And it doesn't hurt to set a little money aside for my non-Alabama house. :)

All in all, things are getting better. There still are some tough days but they are getting less and less. I still miss Mr. Ostrich and I still pray for him, but I think my heart heals a little more everyday. I have lost some old friends due to drinking, partying, etc. but I have made some wondeful new ones. Sometimes I wonder about my future and tomorrow. Then I remember that God has it already handled. He is all I need and that is enough for me. When God's timing is God's timing it will be so worth it. So, I go to work, school, church, and an occasional midnight run with friends... and I'm happy and very thankful that God has blessed me as he has!
