MMMMM MMMMM good

Happy Monday everyone! Yeah....I can't believe I used Happy and Monday in the same sentence either. The weekend was good. Friday night and Saturday morning I worked in Lubbock. Jacob and Brancent were suppose to journey with me but Friday morning he found out he would have to work until 6ish because so many people hadn't shown up. Thanks guys. So I made the trip alone and the boys stayed here. Only highlight was I got to see Simon (and Jared and Patty) Friday night and he showed me his very cool card tricks. Saturday night Brancent Jacob and I went to the Mendoza's house to watch the first half of the very sad OU vs Texas Tech game. Soooooooo sad.

Had some really cool things happen this weekend/today. God's provision makes me laugh sometimes and unfortunately I at times only take notice and acknowledge His provision when it comes to money. I'm working on it though....
1. I have an Iphone that my super cool boss/pastor gave to me. It is his old one but it works great and I love it! Long story short I went into an ATT store twice and then called once to get unlimited text added. Each time I was told it had been added but then I would get my bill (insert screams of horror here). This has been the pattern for 4 months! I was so frustrated and decided to call Saturday to see if I could report the imbecile that apparently added unlimited to my phone 3 times yet it never showed up. After explaining what had happened the lady told me she would backdate everything and add it. The amounts that I had paid for months past would have been overpayment and she would credit to me. It ended up that my bill for this month ($145) was wiped out by the credit and I still have a $17 credit left.

2. We received a check in the mail from Brancent's insurance. They are paying back for services between certain dates they should have covered but didn't. So they sent a nice little check in the mail. (No sorry, this doesn't mean my faithful blog readers will receive Christmas gifts-Jacob's Dr will receive an almost pay off of his bill from when he was born)

I think I am in a season where God is gently and constantly reminding me He is there regardless of the change and uncertainty around me. I admit change, big or little, is hard for me and I can get very rattled by it. However, the thought of His promise of continual presence is so good-like sitting in the sun in a fluffy chair at Starbucks with a cup of Mint white chocolate mocha kinda good or a slobbery kiss and smile from Jacob kinda good. :)

That's so awesome!! I love it when He amazes us...He's so good at it too! :)
The video of Jacob pulling up made me smile so big. He's definitely growing too quickly. Can't you slow it down a bit?? If so, let me know how you accomplished it. Ha!
