Going against Murhpy's Law

Having a drink with Bekah at Chuy's.
Last month has been a roller coaster of ups and downs. It seemed as is every day I was going from happy to sad to ecstatic to utterly depressed, then the depression kind of stayed for a while. When I was stuck in that hole of not feeling pretty, successful, smart, wanted, or loved; I just felt like giving up on life all together. There's no way I could have faced another day with Murphy slapping me in the face every 3 seconds.

Then, after talking to a few people I thought to myself that maybe if I could get out of this town and far away that maybe my life might become what I want it to be. So, on a whim I applied for a job in San Antonio. I didn't think I would get a chance because it is one of the best school districts in San A, and I am the worst person to interview...I sweat, talk fast, and st-st-stutter (BLEH)! Of course, nothing could go right.

But everything has gone right...that's the crazy thing! I got a phone call for an interview and did a decent job answering every question. I even told them that I was familiar with programs that they thought of implementing at their school (head start, yay!). And I just found out that I got the job today!!! Wooohooo! (Sorry for all my coworkers out there who are finding out by reading this, but it is such a relief.)
Then, I got a call from the place where I bought my TV saying that I forgot to make a payment. Of course I did! I explained to them that my TV got stolen and that I just forget to make payments because it isn't there staring at me saying "your bill is due, your bill is due." The lady on the phone said that I got insurance on it when I bought it, so I could just get another one. WHAT??!?!?! These kinds of things never happen to me! I never buy insurance on anything (except my car)! Wow!!!

All of these good things have been happening in my life, and I know it was because I realized what kind of situation I was in, knew I needed to get out of it, and asked God for mercy, forgiveness, and help. Thanks, G-Unit!
On top of all these awesome things, I got to go visit tons of family this weekend. My mom, Brady, grandparents, Uncle Billy, and my completely awesome cousin, Rebekah. This has been the brightest time in my life in a long time. The sun is shining everywhere and I am playing in it!
