Paradise Cafe Discussions - A Place For Bible Research And Christian Encouragement

The whole thing? Nooo! Just playing, yep, it'll be catch up on Sunday, hopefully:thumbsup:. I'll try to sneak in if I can, I like that book but I have sooooo much homework due this weekend, I thought I was ahead and then I was behind. Reminds me of scriptures, sometimes. How we can be this way or that way or this way or..:whistle:Romper Room?, can't remember where that jingle comes from...

Love You All, Debbie

C'mon now, Debbie - who will you be, Mary or Martha! :drinking:

Neither, they are both dead.;)

I'm trying here, Brenden. Let's add that I was officially fired, yesterday. I'm still doing the yeah dance:cheer:, but I'm sure I'll start to worry sometime soon.

No more ex-in-laws who seek money as their god and treat their sales agents like slaves. YEAH!!!! I've been praying over this for a long time. I try quitting but usually cave in.

With Sis Love,(see/hear you tomorrow if things go as planned), Debbie

Touché! :thumbup: Still, I would want you to know that that comment was sent in simple good humour, and didn't question your judgement.

I trust that more good comes from quitting the job than anything else, and something better comes along soon.

WCL, Brendan.

Dear Brenden:hibye:,

I appreciate your encouragement and was just trying to be cute.:giverose:

Ironically, the last time I quit I got a $100 a week raise. This time, I had to be really negative and expressed that I was done with the job twice this week, and then I was finally told to look for a new job. The owner of the sales group is acting legally and morally corrupt. My job position itself crossed barriers that I was uncomfortable with. I have been praying for over a year for another opportunity, and yet appreciating a job that helped me to become more healthy because of its flexability.

God has always taken care of me. One time left destitute with an air mattress for the boys in a three bedroom apartment. The girls and I slept on the floor (we stayed in a one room motel for almost two months. I got hired for a base plus commissions, car allowance and cell phone but couldn't keep up with little kids, long hours and we all got the flu the same week! dreadful experience:crybaby:). I spent three weeks crying and praying on the floor in my bedroom looking out the window. I went out and bought a helium balloon tank (with sparse child support), a business license and drove to a balloon warehouse and bought balloons. I had never blown up a balloon in my life. You see bubbles and balloons make me happy and feel fanciful (so I worked from a happy point or was inspired?). So I asked a gas station if I could sell balloons on the corner. I learned how the sun effects helium, what was a good marketing price, how to practice building things. Then I turned my attention to grocery stores that didn't have a balloon department for a consignment deal, and sought out businesses for Grand Openings and Big Sales Holidays! On my way working through car lots and apartment communities, I met a woman and we instantly liked each other. We talked and before you know it, my company was receiving a weekly salary for marketing the apartment community. The same salary I have been making for this job.

So whatever path I am on now..its going to be fun and wonderful and lead to things that I didn't imagine and have imagined:love::cheer:.

With love to you and yours, Debbie
