Happy New Year!!!



Hello everyone!I I hope you had a great first few weeks of the new year!! I don't usually make resolutions but a few goals I have for this year are to get back to reading the bible and praying everyday! My friend Katie and I have decided to read from the bible everyday and to keep each other accountable. Our church has book marks for every month with readings for everyday that month. they have 12 for every month of the year. So my plan is to read through the bible in a year again! I also want to get back in a gym and back down to my running weight! I think that's about it for now!

Now I'll share a song that has been on my mind this past week. It has gotten me through my hard week.



Classes started this last week. I'm only taking 2 classes but It'll be a very busy semester! I am taking Anatomy & Physiology I the lecture class and the lab and I'm taking Spanish II online. I feel good about this semester. We'll see how it goes.

My roommate "M" said an apartment has opened up that is owned by the place she works for and is taking the apartment. which means we will be without a roommate. she said she would not leave the two of us hanging and is trying to find someone else to take her place. where she works there are a lot of college students. which would mean they would possible only be here for the semester and leave when the summer break comes. The lease isn't over until September. I trust her and I know she will make a good decision.

My other roommate "S" has been gone for the whole Christmas Break which is about a month. she is going to be home today!! I've actually missed her while she's been gone. I can't wait to catch up with her!

someone I work for has surprised me and done so many things that I could never imagine. I never asked for anything. It's so hard to work for someone and not get close to them. she is like a friend to me. I care very much about her. She obviously cares about me. one of those things that she has done for me was very recent. she had surprised me with a set of dishes that she bought me with out me knowing. I kept telling her no I couldn't take them, you shouldn't have. she is a very sweet. she told me before I left that she got them for me because she wanted to and that she wants me to have them because she's never had a daughter to buy these kind of things for. I took them but I did get her one of those edible arrangements gift baskets. I told her I owe her a life debt since she decided to get those dishes.

I no longer work a Victoria's Secret. The didn't tell me until a day before my last day. When I asked them about it they said "oh they didn't talk to you about it? We told all the seasonal hires that this was their last week at the beginning of the week.' Well I obviously didn't know. I complained that I didn't have the same amount of time as the others did to look for another job so they compromised with "we will put you on call for this week" which actually means we will say you can have an "extra" week on call but actually we will never call you. yep I was never called. I knew that it would eventually end but still I'm a little upset they didn't tell me at the same time they did everyone else. So I'm back to looking for another job.

Other than that nothing much has happened. All of this though happened in one week. Crazy!!!

Prayer Requests!!

*Well if you could please pray for my friend katie and I as we start to read from the bible everyday.

*Please pray that I would get back to reading and praying everyday.

*Please pray that I will find a new job.

*please pray that I will remember all that I need to when I'm studying for my classes.

*Please pray for the lady that I take care of that she would see Christ in me.

*Please pray our roommate will find someone to take over her part of the lease.

Thanks for all the prayers!

Until next time God bless!!
Love, Erica Nicole
