Well, I started my new job today and so far all is well. There is a girl about my age there and she does all of our marketing and we spent a lot of time together. I hope to really start building my company. Yes, my company. When its good, I get the credit but when its bad I get the credit too. So pray for goodness.
Reese has been quite stubborn with taking her medicine as of late but last night we scored with ice cream and a special chocolate sauce and sucking it up through a straw. I was becoming so frustrated. It just didn't make sense to spank a child who is not feeling good to get them to take medicine that tastes bad but at the same time it is absolutely necessary. So, that is where we are at. Buying ice cream to get medicine doen. Although I am trying desperately to eat all the food in the house before going to the store since I may not have a good paycheck for a month. I should get 2 small ones but not a full one. So, there you go.
It is only Monday, but the week looks better than last week. We had 2 young people pass away this last week in Cisco. One from an accident and one drowned. Pray for their families.

Another Rough Week/Good Week
I had lasik surgery last Friday and can see whe I first wake up and it is amazing. Still having some fuzzy times but usually I can sleep or close my eyes for about 10 minutes and everything is clear. They said that can happen over the first 2 weeks. Kaylee started T-ball on Monday with Daddy as coach and we only have one that runs around and has no idea there is a game going on. I also got a big promotion with a new job on Monday and it is a huge step up and I am excited to be able to use my full education. So that is all good. If only our week had ended there.
I also had to resign from my other job and it was not pretty. They accused me of trying to take patients with me. I had not even told but two pf my patients I was leaving possibly and had made sure that they knew that I would not be doing pt visits. I had also spoken to one of my friends that I work with and talked to her about how the saddest part was leaving all my patients. I had also voiced the concern that I wouldn't want any of my patients to switch. So anyways, needless to say, I was very thankful to turn in my car and stuff and be done. They also are refusing to pay out any of my vacation days even though I had already applied for it prior to my resignation. Yes, we are still in the first grade. I reassured my boss that I would not do that. Wouldn't have even thought about it, honestly. Then the doctor's office called again today and Reese has the same infection still. She has been pointing to her 'bobo' some and a little fussy but we will be on antibiotics for 3 weeks or until we get on insurance and can get the VCUG and ultrasound done. It is a little scary. I hope nothing is wrong. We will be without a paycheck from me for about 3 weeks and that is scary too. So hard for Mommy's to deal with these little one's suffering. Keep her in your prayers.

Rough Week/Good Week
Reese got sick last Friday and began running a fever and was so lethargic. She ran fever through the weekend and so Monday we took her to the Dr. She ended up having to have blood drawn and have an in-and-out catherter. Major trauma but she was so brave. She ended up having a urinary tract infection. The concern is that baby's are not supposed to get UTI's. So the doctor's want to do further testing. We are going to wait until we have insurance to pay for them. Finally Thursday there were no fevers and she finally had color to her cheecks. She had to get a shot and now is taking medicine that she hates.
Then I am having difficulties with my job. I have been working overtime for more than 2 months. Two weeks ago, I told them that I could no longer work overtime. I was exhausted. The next week I was made to work more than the week before. Then they decided to increase the frequency of my on call to every 3 weeks. I was not asked and still expected to work overtime. So I am looking into another position in Cisco. However, we do not know how long we will be here.
With so many uncertainties, it is easy (especially for me) to become overwhelmed. I listen to a lot of music and that is how I worship. Several songs have spoken to me this week. Chris Tomlin's Everlasting God says ..."Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord. Our God, our strong deliverer, our hope...You are the everlasting God." It talks about how God does not have a weakness and that God does not give up. What a peace. It is amazing toknow that God has our best interests at heart and that..."He makes all things beautiful, in His time". I have His strength to get me through the weeks ahead and the decisions ahead and know that God has m best interest at heart and He wants great things for us. God is Good<>
