This is the second week of the Catholic season of Lent. Last week, I did pretty horrible at remember to refrain from particular food items which I have chose to give up. For 40 days I am to not have any candy, ice cream, pasta, and soda :( This week, I've done really well at remembering that I can't have these items so hopefully I'll be able to continue to do well in abstaining until Easter Sunday!
My PUPPPs are still here and they continue to make my day less pleasant than I hope for, but preparing my precious baby's room is the best remedy because it keeps my mind occupied and I get feelings of excitement and joy that she'll soon be here and be able to enjoy her room... It is not quite ready yet, but it's a work in progress.
Looking back on all the events that lead up to this point from last year up until now, I can't help but be soOoOoOo thankful to God for everything that he has blessed me with, thus far and I continue to pray that she's healthy and for things to continue to fall into place. I can recall last year, with my extended family moving into the home, not having a room and having to sleep on the floor in the living room; quitting a job that I loved to go work at another job that gave me more stable hours and stable pay; quitting that other job altogether because I was unhappy there, and etc. Everything happens for a reason! Whether it's good or bad, it's for a deeper purpose!
Earlier in the week, I was able to get my room back :D My extended family now have stable jobs, so they were able to afford to rent out several rooms from a house situated at the end of our block. My mom is happy that they were able to find a place to rent that is close to her, so if she ever needs help with the patients, she can give them a call (if they are off from work) and they can just walk over to help. I am happy as well because I get my old room back and my baby had been blessed to have a room of her own :) It feels great to have things kinda go back to the way they used to be. And I say kinda only because things are better now :) My family is at a better place, my mom especially and I am at a better place and I have my family, friends, and of course my dear Father up above to thank for everything!!
Now, I will do some exercises to help baby come out sooner ;) Have a great weekend everybody!
