STOP Swearing!

Everyone asks: "How's the job going?"

My response: "Uhhhhh, minus the money hungry, swearing, divorcees... it's okay?"

Do you ever get that feeling where you're surrounded by people who aren't Christians (or maybe they are but they're just really mean) and you feel completely out of place?  That's how I feel. It's a different world of which I've never been a part of before and God is definitely stretching me out of my comfort zone.  I have had the opportunity to meet some of the other staff members (who are married, with a family, and very nice) and are believers.  I have loved getting to know of few of these people and seeing how they ended working here.  The highlight of my day is when the mailman Jim drops off our mail (you can see how bleak my job is), he is the sweetest man and makes me want to be a mail woman (kind of).

Aside from work, I've been working out at Mandy's Underground Fitness. Andrew and I are in a competition to see who can get the best beach body by June 1st. I'm pretty sure I'm going to win.. but he's pretty competitive so we'll see:). 


My dad has been gone 7 months now... it's insane to me how quickly that time has passed by and it still feels like yesterday that he was here. I hate that everyone has moved on but I'm still here trying to make sense of all of this. I will never get over it, but I will get through it with God's help and strength. 

Thank you Lord for calling ME by name.
