LIFE, Money, And all the 'Great' things the come with it.

A lot of things have happened since I last blogged I wont even try to tell about them all. where should I start...I guess Disney World would be good. Here is the deal, my roommate's brother works for Disney so he can bring people to the parks with him for free. So my roommate, her best friend, my sister, and I all went to Disney for five days. It was lots of fun! on the way home is when life was not so great... When we stopped for dinner my sister left her check card at the restaurant but we did not find it missing till many many hours later when we stopped for gas in another state... So I told her we could use my card but she would have to give me the money back once we got home cause I didn't have it. she says OK. Later that night it is my turn to drive and not even 5 minuet after I pass in to Tenn. and I'm still looking for the posted speed... I see a cop parked in the median all his lights off waiting... I had just said to roommate best friend the I don't know what the speed is in this state so i don't want to hit Cruise control till I know. All through Alabama it had been 65mph. So when I see the cop I slow down thinking, I'm going to go way lower than I think the speed is. He pulls me over. My first time. "you were going 68 in a 55" doesn't ask my why or anything. the only thing he really does is half blind me by shining his flash light in my eyes to ... 'help me' find my wallet the I'm digging through my purse to find. He gives me my first ticket and say I can go when he turns his lights off... I spend the next hour and a half shaking worse the I ever have before. Fast-forward to Tuesday my sister still did not pay me back and I am now $42 in the red and I find out today the I have $118 in over draft fees...

But the way I grew up thing happen like that old saying 'When it rains it pours'. I also got a call from my missions trip office today saying that I need to have $1900 in before Friday at 10am or I can't go or my plain tickets will go from $2400 to $3100... I spent the night with one of my good friends going door to door asking for change. we filled a jar but with it split between the two of us it wont be much. Now is the time for prayer all I can do is pray the God provides a way for me beacuse I know he called me to go no this trip.
