A New Life Could Be Headed My Way

I'm not going to lie to you, I did slip up a little with the 3 day diet; not so badly that I set myself back, but enough to just keep me in place with not much further loss. In total, I lost 4.5 pounds, so I'm a little more than half way back to where I was before the Holidays. I can work with that. I'm a little disappointed in myself for not sticking to it, but I'm also in the process of re-teaching my mind how to think about food and re-shrinking my stomach. I didn't expect to just magically get back to normal, so I think I'm doing well. I have been eating really good foods in correct portion and am feeling better and better with each day.

My sleeping, however, is a different story. I fell asleep around 10:30 last night, but it didn't stick. I've been awake since 3:30 this morning...craziness. I've had a lot on my mind throughout the past couple of days and, while they are good things, they're still weighing heavily upon my thoughts. There's also the added stress factor of money. Actually, there's always that factor. I hate money. Absolutely hate it. Lack of money can be one of the most difficult things in life to deal with and, unfortunately, there is no way around the need for it.

This is my last week working with this family. I thought that I would be with them a little bit longer, but I knew that this job was going to be coming to an end soon. However, I have an incredible possible job opportunity in the near future. I don't want to go into detail just yet because nothing is set in stone, but I will say that it will require me to relocate. And I just could not be more excited about this prospect! I've discussed my yearning to travel and experience life in a different place before and this may just be the answer I've been looking for.

I have a phone interview later today and I cannot wait to get more answers and get closer to a definitive decision. I'm putting my faith in Him to help me make the right decision for myself and to help this woman to make the right decision about me. I know that He has a plan, and if I put my trust in Him, I'll end up where I'm supposed to be. I hope more than anything that this works out for me, but if it doesn't, that's fine.....but I really hope it does :)

I'll have more updates for you soon about this endeavor and I hope that you will also pray for me to get the answers I'm looking for. <3
