[__ Prayer __] a possible j-o-b...

[lisa-in-FL]

That's awesome! I want to work in a library I hope it goes well. Remember to smile and be cheerful when you drop off the application. I'm praying that this works out if it is supposed to. Maybe you'll make a great friend there!

Yup, life goes on . . whether we want it to or not. We're all behind you, brother!

the library -would- be nice. and...like i wrote above, im thinking they mostly hire thru local agencies, because their website has 0 information about job openings. that should help reduce competition, lol...

it is a process. im glad that The Lord has changed me so much that I won't have to spend my whole life as a janitor or material handler in a warehouse, etc...or (here's hoping+praying..) completely dependent on disability and my parents. nothing wrong with it if that's your lot in life, but...the mental health people call it "recovery," I call it a slow-moving miralce...either way, I think I can do more, now.

Today the library, tomorrow the world.

Oh my, look what I've been missing.
Well done CE, Will be praying you get this job it sounds good. If you don't get it there must be something better around the corner for you.
Things are really moving for you.

things are moving, and I'm thankful. when stuff first happened, dad was talking about a group home, maybe shipping me off to another teen challenge in another state, and im thinking...oh man, this is -not- good. but...

verna and i prayed, for hours. now, im living in a simple, quiet, -safe- apartment...looking for work...getting along well with my parents...

i think i just needed my own space, even though they were kind enough to let me live there. no matter my labels in the community, its not ideal for a 30-something to retreat into his parents' house, not long-term, anyway. im blessed that they had me there during probation. made life -so- much easier for me. but...

i kinda over-stayed, not that i saw an option. God made a way, thru my parents, for me to have my own space and for them to get their's back. did i tell you they've gotten some work done on the kitchen? nothing crazy, but...man oh man...new counter tops, they're awesome, plus a very -deep- new sink. so...life goes on. i actually saw my parents today, and i did laundry at their place. they're good to me, and im thankful.

Good parents are a huge blessing in life. New kitchen sounds nice

 

[Christ_empowered]

they are -such- good parents. they havent redone the whole kitchen, but im glad they got the counter tops done...huge improvement. for a while there, i think there were hoping to sell and move on, so there was a limit to what they'd do to the house...but now, im thinking they're learning to love their house, and they're doing more to and with the place than before, and im thankful.

they're also redoing the smaller, downstairs bathroom. looks -vastly- improved, already.
