Job Interview

Went on a job interview with Fresno Unified School District today! Thought I would never go back, but God has opened doors and I am doing my best to make sure I walk through them. It offers perks that freelance interpreting doesn't; sick leave, vacation, retirement...I will keep you updated.....

Jesus Does Love Us!!!!

God has done it again!!! We have been two months behind on our house payment and very close to foreclosure. Both Nathan's and my hours had been cut most of the summer, which is usually when Nathan makes most of his money being an A/C tech.
Recently, I had oppurtunity to do some freelance long term interpreting for the school district (my old stomping grounds), and a labor and delivery at emergecy rate, all adding up to the ground total of what is owed and a little more to boot!
God came through right on time! God has really been teaching us some lessons most importantly, learning to trust HIM and not rely on our own abilities. HE is so GOOD!!!!

Psalm 27:14
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD

Psalm 40:1
I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

Isaiah 40:31
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

2 Samuel 22:3
The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.

2 Samuel 22:31
As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him

Psalm 31:14
But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God.

Glad for my Friends!!!

I'm Back!!!

Nathan and I had a wonderful time in Pismo this past weekend!! The weather was perfect! Not too hot not to cold. Saturday we slept in and just took it easy. Went to a few thrift stores ( I love thrift stores), then met up with my sister Cameo and my handsome nephews for an early dinner. After that, we had a reservation to enjoy the Sycamore Hot Springs in Avila. That was so relaxing and enjoyable. We plan to go again! Sunday we slept in again, had coffe and a pastry, (Nathan's favorite breakfeast). Then we walked around the outlet mall. Shopping done, we went down to Diansour Caves, a beach in Shell Beach. This beach is visted by residents mostly and is not crowed at all. We stayed there an hour or more just enjoying the beautiful day before heading back to the valley. Avila Farms was our last stop, and boy did we have fun. I really missed Emily and Abbey (my youngest nieces) when we were there. The animals we darling. We enjoyed to shops there as well and the different fruits and veggies. That also will be a repeat visit spot.
Now we are back at home in the ole routine. It's good to get away, but I miss my kids, home and four dogs. Home at last!!!

Pismo Beach!

I convinced my hubby we needed a weekend at the beach! Not just one night but TWO!!! So here I am at the Motel 6 in Pismo enjoying the cool overcast weather..... The high is estimiated to be only a wonderful 71 degrees today. Gotta love it!!!!
