bad week or at least thursday...

sometime wednesday night or early thursday morning my bank decided to charge me a $30 fee. not sure why. i only had $27 in the account so when they took $30 it made me in the red. they took out $3 something and then a withdrawl came through early for $297 so they took out another $30. they transferred money from savings, $4, and charged me $3 to do it. then another $5 something comes through this morning and another $30 fee. i am now $336 in the hole before my check gets deposited. i hate banks right now.
so i have $60 less cash to start out. i was already to my limit trying to pay bills. i need help!!!
i keep asking god to be a little more clear about what to do. i am sure i have been told what to do, i just don't know which solution is correct. i even bought a lottery ticket this week. not one number.
i hope next week is better.

last 17 days

it's been 17 days since my last blog. what has happened? not much. lets see...

friday the 8th and saturday the 9th was the women's retreat. we went to spring hill retreat. it was really nice. phyllis speck was the leader. she did a good job. she used some of the nooma dvds. i love that set.

yesterday was jeanette underwoods wedding shower. quite a turn out. she got lots of great stuff. jeannette and jim are a really cute couple.

this afternoon was a concert at church. jacie's niece, anne, is a musician and she, leigh, gerald, rick and a friend of anne's played drums. it was a really good concert.

i am broke as usual. i can't seem to get caught up and get ahead. i end up a week short on funds.

tough time

obviously i'm not very good at this blogging thing. i forget to blog and when i remember i don't have much to say. this is a boring life. but i think i have decided that boring is not a bad thing. i would rather have a boring life than one filled with DRAMA. i have know drama queens/kings and i just don't have the energy for it.
i like my laid back lifestyle. usually the most drama i have is whatever drama my friends are going through. i think i'm a good listener. i try to be a good listener. i hope i'm a good listener.

nada

nothing going on. i'm just writing something to write something. i went yesterday morning to the parsley's house for a breakfast meeting. everything homemade. why can't i have a beautiful home and be as organized as joanne parsley? i am so lazy. i am doing something wrong. i just don't know what exactly.

good day bad day

well it started out as a good day. i refinanced a loan that made my payment less each month. that was good and i got $100 cash for doing it.

then i found out that my friend phyllis got bad news about her cancer. she had breast cancer a few years ago and it came back in her spine. now it has moved to her knees, ribs, hips, and ankles. she found out today and they started chemo again today. that is not good.

i grew up two doors down from phyllis and her family. she is the mom of the family and she and my mom were best friends. my family moved away one by one and and i lost touch with the neighborhood. my mom was the last one to leave and she kept in touch with some folks. but when my mom died i didn't have any contact with anyone still living there. i did keep up with a couple of other ladies that my mom was great friends with. one of them told me about phyllis having the cancer return. so i got in touch with phyllis' youngest daughter lisa. now i am keeping up with them and glad i am. i miss our old neighborhood. at least the people from the old block. flamingo lane was the best.

please keep phyllis and jack day in your prayers, as well as their whole family.

thats all for tonight.

here we go again...

i did a blog last year and then just didn't. so i am going to try it again.

i don't think i'm very interesting so why would anyone want to read what i have to say. i guess i can just use it as a diary. but do i really have things to say everyday? i have a hard time just trying to come up with something to post on facebook.

oh well, here goes...


maybe tomorrow.
