It's Time to Sing a Brand New Song

What are your GAL plans for the next few days to help get your mind off of things?

Hey K, thanks for your reply. Yeah, I've been up and down all day b/c of his call. Just when the thoughts were occurring less...tears for the first time in over a month, through out the day. *ugh* But while at work tonight, I watched a live-stream of a bible study and several things were said that really got my mind back on track....I really needed that.

I've been working 6 days a week all month so making money has been my GAL lol

But tomorrow I'm going to lunch with a young lady I've never met before. My mom met her at the airport while on a layover in the big city near me. From what my mom tells me, she's in her 20's and her husband left her & their daughter and 4 years later they got back together.... but now she is somewhat regretting taking him back and she was crying in the airport to my mother about it and they exchanged numbers.

She asked my mother if I could contact her since we live near each other, so I stepped out out my comfort zone and texted her (old me hates my mom trying to hook me up with people, and I totally would have been negative and rejected meeting up w/ this girl). So we are meeting up tomorrow evening. I purposely picked a restaurant in the neighborhood I may potentially be moving to in a few months when my lease is up; so I can drive around before hand and see the area as well.

Also I made a good friend over the summer in my home-state that I moved from several months ago. She is in her early 20's and has been coming to me to help her w/ direction in life etc... I've helped her w/ getting into church and building her relationship w/ God. She wants to work w/ youth and that what I do, work w/ homeless youth. A position opened at my agency and I got her an interview and she got the job so she'll be moving here in a few weeks. So that will be nice to have someone else I know here.

Also, for the last month I've been working on building a website;I do graphic work as well so I've got a logo etc...together at this point. Just have to figure out what I want to focus on w/ the content of the site. Since I work at night I have a lot of free day time hours and the thing that gets most of my attention during day time hours to keep my mind off my sitch is the internet (most people i know are at work during the day), so I figured I might as well use that time more productively and start a website for fun and encouragement for myself and others and hopefully it will grow into something interesting.
