Couldn't Sleep

Yeah so I couldn't sleep so I figured I would try to write a post here goes:
This summer I have been through a lot; I was out of church for a long time.I wanted to be there, but I was always too tired or something stupid like that. My grandmother died. I lost my job. I was probably depressed at some point, but I'm not really sure. God has been with me through it all though. I started going to church again a few weeks ago (It has been really great). I have also started attending Wednesday night services with my sister and brother-in-law (which has been great too). My neighbors whom I have lived by for several months suddenly had work for me to do (you know after I lost my job). God has been providing for my needs through all the odd jobs I have already wrote about. It is great to read about God providing for your needs, but living it out is even more amazing. Until next time, for now I feel extremely tired, God bless.

Update

Hi everyone, so I haven't posted every other day, but every so often is better than every other month so here is the update. I have been doing odd jobs for the neighbors as you know. Well I am now building and installing shutters for them, this time instead of money for payment I received a new tool called a router. A router can be used to make all kinds of neat designs in wood. The shutters are constructed of four 2x4's that I beveled with my new router. It worked really well. So you heard the story give a man a fish and feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and feed him for life. Well I got a tool that I can use on other jobs to make more money :) Cool huh? Here is a picture of my router (when the shutters are all finished I will post a picture of them)

Bargain Shopper

Today I did some work for the neighbors. I put up new front porch lights, and installed new mailboxes. It all looks really good. Now the reason for todays title; I took Braden with me to Sonic during 2-4 pm half price happy hour, and on our way there we stopped at a thrift store cause he wanted to look for something. He didn't find what he was looking for, but I found a real bargain. Then we went to Sonic and got green apple slushes (they are really good). Ha, you thought I wasn't going to tell you what my bargain was. I got a 17" Samsung flat screen computer monitor for 20 bucks. I was really excited because they sell for around 80-100 dollars. It works like new too. I guess that is all I have to say for today.
