Our application was.....

.....DENIED!

After all the writing and praying and tears, Chasity will NOT be attending the school I need her to attend in the fall.

I got a phone call at 9am this morning to let me know that the school board met last night and that they are denying our application. When I asked why, the lady said that it is because that school is already over-full and they can not allow any more transfers to there.

My heart dropped. I was already crying. I was just hoping the lady didn't hear it in my voice.

I called Tony and could barely speak because of the tears. He said "We'll just have to figure something else out."

I called my mom, still crying and pretty sure I freaked her out, and she said, "God has a reason for everything."

All I can think is that The Bible says that God will give us the desires of our hearts. So why am I sitting here crying? I didn't get the desires of my heart!

I guess I'll just play the waiting game again now. I have no idea what steps to take now.

Until next time........

I am so sorry for your heartache. I don't know all the details, but would their be another option, maybe not as ideal, but better than last year that wouldn't be as crowded? Do you have charter schools in the area? (I've been gone for so long, I don't know what's what anymore.)

I'm truly sorry and will continue to pray for a positive outcome...I know first hand that God does His own thing...and we're usually the last to know. Keep your chin up!

I agree with Phyllis.

If there is a charter school in the area, try there. I just got my daughter into one at the end of June. I've never been to a charter school, but from what I understand they are just as good, if not better than public schools.

Good luck finding the right school for you and your daughter. I am hear if you need to talk.

Weight Update!!

Last week, I didn't weigh myself because I was sick! Plus, I didn't really eat anything much at all last week. I did, however, register for Weight Watchers online. So I did spend time reading up and learning about the program. Today, I got on the scale. Two weeks ago, I weighed 402. Today, I weigh 390! In two weeks, I have lost another 12 lbs. That makes a total of 26 lbs. so far! I'm excited! Yeah, if you look at the previous post about my weight, it says that I started at 412. Yeah... I looked at the paper wrong. I started at 416. I lost 4 lbs the first week. I lost 4 lbs the second week. I lost 6 lbs the third week. Then I didn't weigh in last week. I weighed in today at 12 lbs down! I can tell it mostly in my pants. I HATE for my pants to be baggy, so I buy them to fit! Yesterday, I wore my black dress pants to church and I had to keep pulling them up. I'm going shopping next Sunday with my mom! I'm so happy! Next Sunday is my bday! So.....

Still Learning

Ok...so I'm always learning something new. However, recently, I have seriously been thinking about something. I want to learn to sew. My mom has a sewing machine I can use any time I want to. Of course, if I really learn to sew, I'd want my own sewing machine! ;) Anyways, I have been checking into classes. I have only found one place in my town that does classes. They offer a 4 week class for $115. That's not bad for a class. But, I'm afraid I wouldn't learn in 4 weeks and I'd need to take the class again! lol Anyways, I'm still looking into it. I'd love to learn. I will one day. However, I've seen some REALLY cute things that I'd love to sew for Chasity to wear! :) Until next time........

NC Weather

Image
In the state of NC, we rarely get that BIG SNOW. They used to be more common.  We used to get one huge snow a year.  Now, we are lucky if we get one every 2-3 years.    However, schools are cancelled, delayed, or let out early for weather all the time here.  We haven’t heard anything today about our schools, but we shall see.    It’s all about waiting to see what happens.  Sometimes, I think that God is sitting up there showing us HIS sense of humor.  He lets the weather people tell us whatever they want to tell us.  Then HE decides to have some fun with the weather.  (That’s just my 2 cents!)   Countdown Updates: 0 days until I pick up cookies!  TODAY is the day! They are still calling for “weather,” but they are pushing back the start time to later today. My scheduled pick up time is 6pm. So, we shall see.  It should be fine. Tony is going to drive me there so I’m not having to do it alone.  Then ...
