Well, if there was a time where I am grateful (I mean, truely) grateful to God, it would be today.
i mean, I am always thankful because he has blessed me with my wonderful family and friends.......I am not where I am today but ONLY through My Lord.
okay, for starters, let's just say that I've been a little scattered brained for the past few years (You might say irresponsible) okay, same thing more or less. I've lost my mp3 player, have a BAD history of misplacing keys , my cell phone, SOMETIMES important documents. let's just say I'm working on becoming better organized in my life and less stressed and rushed about things......regardless of WHAT life may throw at me.
Quick backdrop....It's in the high 80's, I'm in Texas and unfortunatly, don't have the vehicle right now because DH has to have it for work. So I walk to my mom's job (which is about 5 min max DRIVING DISTANCE and that's if you have to wait at the stop light) to go get her car so I can take my daughter around. So I do the most stupidest (I know, not a word) thing EVER. I put $750 in my right pocket and put my cell phone on top thinking, "Okay, if anything falls out, it'll be my cell phone first and I'll feel it" YEAH RIGHT! As you probably figured by now.
i pick up my mom's car and head directly to the bank thinking I still have the $750 with me. I get to the teller and realize that the money is gone....I look in my purse, conduct a search where I was pushing my daughter in her stroller to see if it's fallen out on the way.....(What's the deal? I would've felt it if it fall out, wouldn't have I?" if not, I would've realized some money trying to fly away with breeze that was there.)
Well, guess not! My husband has already pointed out to be that he notices how I misplace too many things and am very disorganized................The last thing i want is for him to think I'm irresponsible and NOT take action for my mistakes..no matter HOW good my intentions were. I mean, that $750was for our house insurance for the year.
There's no possible way i can get that money back. "He's gonna kill me! ' "he's gonna fly through the roof" So I think, " okay, I gotta get this money back......TODAY!" i start calling Pawn shops, trying to find out which one will give me the most money for the most expensive thing i own. My American made Fender stratacaster 1957 Replica Guitar. (Cost me $1500) I was crying........i was saying how sorry i was that I didn't listen to that feeling i had to keep the money at the house and just pick it up when i had the car. (yeah, that feeling was God telling me.....'it's gonna fall out your pocket"...........did i listen? (Okay, so we know the answer to that) Waiting for the pawn shops to call on how much I can get for Stella. (Yes, I named my guitar)
But I get a call form my mom's job instead. A customer of her's comes in telling her he found the rest of my money.....the guy who was cutting yards with him found it and was counting it....and the guy who returned it told him "hey man, I know who's money that is, you can't keep that,,,,so the other guy gets mad at this dude who returned my money...." But he said he wasn't worried about it. He saw me earlier when he was trying to help me find it around the outside of the Valero hyperventalating...........(yes, to those who kinda know me personally, believe it or not...I hyperventilate) So he caught his co working counting this money after hearing him say just the day before that he was broke and that's why he needed to cut yards with this guy to make money........there's no way this other guy could've made that much money THAT fast .....................So this guy, after hunting for my lost money in the rising heat plus getting my money back form that guy, i gave him $50 and i was EVER so grateful that God was still looking out for me through this kind man.
i also learned my lesson.........no matter how much i feel i'm being rushed, NEVER will I just stuff money in my pocket....................................................maybe this bleach that made my hair blonde is starting to get to me! LOL! just kidding to all you beautiful blondes out there...(natural AND unatural)
But yeah, I'm sorry, i can't just call that mere coincedence oor just pure luck......(seeing as that ACTUALLY, form my personal perspective, I don't believe that Luck itself exists...............0
I truely believe that I'm blessed...................................God knows I DEFINATLY don't deserve it......but yet, he blessed me anyways...................................................he knew I was truely sorry and yet, Look what happened?
Just thought i'd share that with you ladies! You ALL have a blessed day!
