Test Date, Snow & Life

Yesterday I scheduled my next testing date to take the Property and Causality Insurance for the third time.  Yep third time hopefully will be a charm.  Its set for Saturday Jan 28th at 9:00 am!  We shall see how it goes.  I've studied as I should and I've built up a block.  I want to do well and I want to pass so I don't see the problem.  I will suck it up and push things aside over this next week and study hard until the test.

Snow....and snow....its suppose to hit hard these next couple of days.

Karlee has settled back in.  I know she will leave again at some point but I'm really really happy she is back at home.  She jumped right on it with looking for a job and submitting applications.  I've asked her to light a fire under her brother's behind!  Having her around is great with the other two, they communicate in a way that I can't being a mom and all.  She is like a manager!  A manager in my home :)   It's just really nice she is home.  I'm proud of my daughter.  She has grown through her latest experience away from home.

A friend of mine said "Katrina I'm just going to be blunt!  Micah was a mistake.  He was not the one that was going to lead you spiritually as you thought, he was not going to be the one.....He doesn't see anything wrong with him, its others, its everyone else to blame......."  He said more but my mind trailed off after his simple statement that Micah was a mistake and that he is a lost soul and that he is narcissist and selfish.  With all that my perspective was influenced but I think in a good way "sort of like wrapping things up and really moving on kind of thing"  Micah is lost and until he looks inward and to God then he will continue to be as he is in this moment.  Its quite sad actually.

It's take some time to let go of thinking I can't do life without him and settling that he provided a roof over my head and some security when the truth is I can't do life with God and he is the one that has and will continue to provide a roof over my head and life can be and will be lived with only God!

Moving on to a new thought.......

I started this post this post the other day... Today is Monday Jan. 23rd snow day with the kids.

The New Year


Its been a while since I've posted anything.  I think instead of rewinding and trying to figure out what all has gone on since Christmas its best to look in my phone and find the latest pictures to catch up on.


The Lord continues to refresh and restore my soul daily as I lean on him.


The day after New Years Day we did this!  Bought Karlee a 2003 Saturn LS200 




The weather was super nice!  This was taken while I was waiting outside the Verizon store in Phoenix across from the Fashion Square Mal.  I enjoyed waiting on the girls sitting outside enjoying the nice weather and people watching.


My apartment is full again!!!  My heart is happy and full, all my babies are back in the nest.
Its crazy to think I was in Phoenix after New Years Day and enjoyed a fun weekend with my daughter living with a friend and being a nanny to the next weekend of moving her back home!  Its a little crazy and a long story but just know it was a good decision for her at this point.  Now we will see what her next step will be like.



This picture makes my heart dance with joy!
My son never takes many selfies especially not with me!!!  But randomly the other night he did......
