The quiet mouse

Okay so I had 3 interviews today. One of those interviews called me back and wants to interview me tomorrow for a second time. This would be at a farm store at a parts counter. I would be working for a tractor company.
So please pray it goes well for me. Originally it was supposed to be a phone interview this morning. The phone call never happened and needed to be rescheduled.Well I called the parts manager after I got out of a different interview today and I ended up doing a walk in interview with them. Tomorrow I meet them and the general manager of the area. I wasn’t even home 20 minutes and they wanted to set up another interview. I’m very excited about it and really really nervous. The only reason this is happening like this is because God is doing it.
Please please pray for me.

The only reason today happened the way it did was God had his hands all over it. There’s no other way it would have worked out like it did.

Ill let you know how the interview goes tomorrow.

hopefully I get this job.

I had a phone interview today. I don’t think it went well. Some of the questions I wasn’t sure how to answer. I think my phone recorded the call so I’m going to go listen to it again and write down those questions and figure out proper answers to them.

I also called a few places and asked about my application status. Hopefully I’ll hear back from some of them by the end of the week. I just really need a job.

Not that I don’t want to work. I do. I’m just really enjoying being home with my girls.

Plus I would have money coming in for the house.

I would love to have a remote job with healthcare insurance. Trying to find a remote job is kinda hard. Some of them are billing and coding jobs that require a degree. Others are insurance and realtor jobs.

So have a backup plan.

Moses encountered the burning bush in the desert. It was burning but not consuming the bush.

What if we let God’s power burn through us. When things burn their structure is literally changed. It crumples and cracks and falls apart.

But sometimes it doesn’t fall apart. Sometimes it gets stronger and better with the fire. The bush that was burning wasn’t crumpled with the fire. It was standing with it.

We Should let God burn in us and through us. He’s going to make us stronger. He will fill in those gaps and cracks with himself.

Why are we hesitant about letting God change us? We don’t like giving up control. We don’t like change. We are afraid of how things will end up.

Dit back and take a deep breath and let God move in you.

Having 2 tiny humans can be amazing, a blessing and insane all at once.

The other day I sat on the couch and was listening to them play in their room. The way they talk is different. The way they laugh is different. Customers used to ask me all the time if they were the same. I would say of course not. The girls are two different people.

God made them different. Right down to their fingerprints. Would you like a base of all the same flowers or would you rather have beauty, individuality, creativity, and so much more.

These girls love and forgive so different than we as adults do.

If we as adults would listen and watch how are kids love and forgive maybe our world would be a better place.

The don’t put limitations on each other.

They don’t discriminate by hair color, skin color or where they come from.

They don’t worry if you are the same religion as them.

They don’t care if they have name brand clothes on.

They care if you love them.

They want your hugs and love.

They don’t want strings attached to that love.

They moved the goal post.

It stood farther away

I now had more hoops to jump through to reach it.

I took a deep breath

I plotted my course.

I changed directions.

I turned away from the goal post and looked out into the unknown.

Only i could see my new goal

It looked like I had given up.

I had only changed course.

I’m going around those hoops.

I’m not going to drown

I’m not a strong swimmer but I can find my way.

I will rise above the waves and stand firm beside my goal.

Whose coming with me?

My girls watched Puss In Boots today and loved it. It was also the first time I had seen it too.

Miriam has Decided that she has to be touching me at all times today. She loves having me home from work.

I love being home with them.

Yesterday I asked Abbie to spell her name for me and she did. She got every letter right. I’m so proud of her.

I have called over a dozen places checking on my application. I also applied to more companies. I have several interviews this week.

The strange thing though is I have people calling me to set up interviews that I didn’t apply with. I double and triple checked my list.

So someone got my information and I’m not sure how.

I’ve applied to over 60 places and I have three that I am really hoping that they get back to me soon.

The printing company I interviewed with last week.

A local furniture store ( interview tomorrow)

And a farm parts store. ( Interview Thursday)

I will update with what happens.

As I have said in some previous posts I left my job at the end of August. I have applied to over 65 places. I have only had 4 interviews.

I think it’s mostly that I don’t have the computer skills or more of a college education behind me.

One of the classes I took in college was hospital phlebotomy and I really enjoyed that. I wish I would have taken it further. There were 14 of us in the class and only 2 got jobs.

I had a chance at applying for a traveling phlebotomist but my parents were not happy that I was going to be putting that many miles on my car. It was an older lumina.

I guess I got persuaded and dragged down and I just gave up.

I wonder how much of what they told me was true.

I almost drove back out to Indiana to visit friends. One of my friends was a really good mechanic and he said that my car would be able to handle the drive. I guess I should have listened to him more.

My dad didn’t normally do things out of his comfort bubble.

But my friend did things out of his comfort bubble all the time.

I’m learning how to step out of my comfort zone and do things that I want. It’s kinda freeing.

I just wonder how much of what we did as a family was just staying in our comfort zone.

Anyways. I’m really thinking about taking some classes again. At least getting a degree after all these years. Alot of the work from home jobs are ones with a degree. I honestly could take one class at a time and just take forever to get it done.

I guess I need to add college to my bucket list.

The link I posted i think everyone needs to hear. We all have bad days. We all get stressed out. Our minds don’t want to shut off sometimes.

I watched this and said I really need this. I need a hug and reassurance before I go to bed tonight. I know tomorrow will be better.

I have an amazing God who does just this. His promises are forever and he doesn’t break them. He’s my rock and my salvation. He loves me just the way I am. Some days I’m bruised, broken, bleeding and dirty and he sits down with me and eats. I might be frustrated and angry and he listens and reassures me that tomorrow is better.
