Hey Everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful Easter! I did. My family dinner with the family was awesome! We all ate as a family for the first time in who knows how long. It was bliss.
After we ate, I had to pack my car...rather, finish packing my stuff, to then pack my car. I wasn't in much of a hurry. By the time I got everything together and had the car fully packed *and I do mean FULLY!* , it was like 5pm. Dad called a friend that lives in Charlotte that was visiting Raleigh to see if he needed a ride. I was like, "Dad, I don't think there is room for him! Maybe he could ride on the top." He didn't like that idea. Then were the goodbyes. So uncool! But, the Lord was gracious and I don't think anyone cried...at least, until I left. I am just so confident in the Lord's plan, that I am sad, but my excitement is the most prominent.
The car ride was, hmm... Dad is so wonderful, just not that talkative. :) And if you know me at all, you know that I am SO talkative. Haha. Love it. Anyways, the ride was uneventful. We arrived a little later than I wanted, but we got here. Terri Fowler is amazing!! She is the wonderful lady that is sharing her house with me. Ahh, God is SO good!!
I went to McAllister's yesterday to meet with my manager. I had to fill out some more paperwork, and everything looked set. I was given my schedule for this week. But, they had to change the days from today through sunday, to starting on Friday! I was like, what?! They didn't have any t-shirts for me to wear on the job...lamest excuse ever!! God is working huge things in me this week, and I can't wait to see what they are! He is so good and is teaching me more with every day to lean on him and his promises for my best. It was hard to leave my family, I'm not gonna lie. They are pretty much my life and I can't wait til they get here! Yeah. You know. It is super weird being here by myself, shopping for food by myself, eating by myself. When I'm used to the hustle and bustle of a family of 8, this is super laid back. Like, can't even tell you!!
Just wanted to let you know I am here and alive and kickin. Love you all. Come and visit me!
I'm off to explore Charlotte!! The Ikea is calling my name! I passed it on my way to work yesterday and it was SO hard not to stop. That might be a bad thing...Also, there is an Anthropologie. *happy hands*
Byes!!
