When you realise...

I've been hanging on to some hopes and dreams about things for a while now, and I realised that it was not meant to be.

I am disappointed, but no longer am I sad. That is the good thing! Thank You God for helping me and showing me, the truth.

Just irritated with myself for spending all that time and energy on it.

But that is how you grow and learn...all from your stupid mistakes.

Back to work...

All I can say is, I'm tired, sjoe, can't believe that being back to work can be such a change in my life. Yes, I've been at home for three months, did not use my brain much, slept late, and did a lot in the evenings when everyone else went to bed. Now I'm first to be in bed!

I think I'm starting to enjoy my new job. I asked God for a job with a small company, and that's what I got! In total we are seven people, excluding the people in the factory. Thank You God for answering my prayers!

I work on an egg farm. Yes, a real farm with chickens, cows, sheep and some game. It's not peaceful I can assure you, I'm busy from 7 in the mornings until 4:30 in the afternoons, and like I said, I think I'm enjoying it.

From selling milk and then books, to selling eggs, jip, that's me now....

Thank You God for all the blessings!

So...

I just went skinny dipping in our pool, and before anyone starts thinking I've got a spell of stupid, I want to add that it is still about 35 degrees here. That's what happens if you're too lazy to change from clothes, to bathing suit, to pajamas.

Well, I'm cooled off a bit at least...

On Tuesday I have an interview with FAW, they manufacture trucks apparently? The worst thing of all is, I don't know for what position it is, due to the fact that I've applied for plenty of jobs! Well, I'm sure I will find out?

I'm 'drooling' for some Coca Cola! With ice and a piece of lemon, aai, it will go down well!

So...that's my 'makes-no-sense' blog for this lovely Sunday....

God's grace...

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island.

He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him. Every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming.

Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect himself from the elements, and to store his few possessions.
One day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, with smoke rolling up to the sky. He felt the worst had happened, and everything was lost. He was stunned with disbelief, grief, and anger. He cried out, "God! How could you do this to me?"

Early the next day, he was awakened by the sound of a ship approaching the island! It had come to rescue him! "How did you know I was here?" asked the weary man of his rescuers. "We saw your smoke signal," they replied.

The Moral of This Story : It's easy to get discouraged when things are going bad, but we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of our pain and suffering. Remember that the next time your little hut seems to be burning to the ground. It just may be a smoke signal that summons the Grace of God

Job hunting...

Who could have thought that a person can become bored, being a stay-at-home woman? Can't call myself a housewife, now can I? But honestly? It's been nearly three months, and I'm not liking this no more...

Yes, I only started posting my CV a week or so ago, but it feels much longer. It is scary to think that I'm applying for work, at least 20 times a day! But nothing so far!

Nice words...

In life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it..You surround yourself with people who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good...So love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't..Life is too short to be anything but happy..Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living!

New...

Can't believe it is New year's eve tomorrow. 2012 making way for 2013...

I am thankful for so many things this year. We got my Mom's little house finished and she's happy here. We went through court cases and like always God was there to help us! I'm grateful for my family and even more so that we are together, I thank God for them every day.

Yes, there were tears and heartache and hurt. I lost a friend to cancer, Brian was a wonderful man. My dearly beloved Oupa passed away, and I still miss him every day. Ash's closed down, that dream shattered in a million pieces. I lost very close friends, and that I miss a lot too...

Now for 2013. The year where I will be job hunting like crazy, finding something that I will love doing. Saving for that overseas trip, and moving forward. To better things...

I pray that every single person I know, and don't know, to have an awesome new year. To forgive each other, to love each other and to hold on to the ones you love. Life is too short for all the crap.
