TGIF

I am glad it's Friday. Nothing's planned for the weekend but hitting the trail and hopefully a trip to the park so Pooka can ride her bike. I ordered the pole I magically lost on the 2nd and according to the customer service chick I should have it anyday now. Speaking of Pooka, if she makes it to Sunday without any non sleeping accidents, she would be dry for an entire WEEK! *insert praise dance* Being that this is the second go around with this I hope she is trained for good this time! I feel kinda bad cuz everyday I get her from the daycare she tells me with such excitement that she has had a dry day and we have to go to Walmart. But mommy don't have the money to buy the cheap goldfish. I feel bad that I had to fail on my side of the deal for a few days, but I don't have an option. Well there is the credit card, but I have sworn that to emergencies. Goldfish are not an emergency.

Let's take a moment and thank God/Goddess/whomever is your higher power, for me it's the Lord. This week has been financially rough for me, yet I am still going. You hear the stereotypical Christian testimony that God makes a way out of no way and He's always on time. Well this week has been exceptional. Without going into long drawn out detail. Wednesday when I left work to go to my doctor's appointment, the car was on E. By me knowing my car I felt I had enough to get to my appointment, but after that any other trip was questionable. I go, the nurse irks me, I get in the car to go get Pooka. The car doesn't have enough gas to turn over. My credit card is at home (I don't carry it on purpose) and I had $1 on my being. I walked across the street to the gas station, get my swallow of gas and put it in the car. The car turns over but is shaking and making noises like it still isn't going anywhere. I have my little talk with God, you know, the "Lord if you can just get me to such and such" talk. I put the car and drive, my ride shakes and jerks a good minute then I get on my way. Encouraging the car and talking to God got me to the daycare which is about 20-25 miles from the doctor's office. One of my banks is literally right next door to Pooka's daycare and their is a gas station acrossed the street. I got Pooka, went to the bank, took out the 9 dollars I had, and took the car across the street with my 9 dollars. I been riding on 3 gallons of gas since Wednesday. I am surprised I made it to work. I kept forgetting to put the stupid credit card in my purse! Ugh!

2nd blessing, Dr. Psyche only wants the class to meet 2 days a week and a few Saturdays! YAYYYYYYYYYY! I can already tell I will like her class. She is a young black woman who is a practicing children's psyche. She works with children who are or have bipolar/schizo/autism. She is one of those sit on the desk crosslegged, let's talk about it type teachers. I like her so far. So yeah I'll be in class this Saturday.

3rd blessing, yesterday I forgot to bring my breakfast and lunch to work, I don't know where my brain has been lately, I just been extra forgetful lately....anyways, I forgot my food and I don't have no cash. I do have money in my other bank account but it's accounted for. That's a long story in itself. I paid for a service...I got credit for paying for the service with the company...they haven't taken the money out my account yet and it's been a month! Most people would just use the money for something else, but I am being honest and I have told the service on more than one occasion that they haven't taken the money out my account, but still nothing has been done. I want to use the money but I have this feeling that the moment I do, the checks will clear and then I'd have bank fee's to worry about! Ugh! Anyways, what I was suppose to say is that a coworker came in my office with an biscuit from Mickey D's and told me that I could have it. She brought it cuz it was 2 for 2 and she can't eat but one! YAY! Then at lunch another coworker did the same thing, except she brought 2 bbq sandwiches thinking she could eat both and after the first got full. So there was my breakfast and lunch yesterday! It was cool cuz I never told anyone I forgot my stuff. Pretty cool IMO!

Of course I am thankful for all the other things in my life, but thinking about those couple of events from this week just make me smile. I just don't understand how someone could not believe in some kind of a higher being.
