Have you ever thought that you can't get back the time that you lost?  The years that you lost?  The opportunities that you wasted?  Well I once thought that way.  Many years of my young adult life were spent struggling as a result of one bad decision after another.  Bad financial decisions, bad relationship decisions, bad decisions with my body, bad decisions with my education.  There was a time I thought those opportunities were lost. At forty one years old, it honestly feels like God has restored what was lost.  I am a college student again, I have financial stability again,  I am excited about all the opportunities before me, just like my younger self, before the mistakes that sent my life spiraling downward.  I'm here again standing in a very similar place to that of when I was 19 and 20, in my early years of college.  I haven't stood in this place since then.  There is one difference...........I was not walking with God th...

This is truly my therapy.  Well I actually have a few "therapies"  If you haven't already noticed that I'm a mess, I'm sure I will have you convinced after reading this post.  Here we go!!! I have been watching a new Netflix series called the "Innocents", which I have sto...

Diary of a broke adult Thursday 6:47 It was 5:05 on a Thursday.   I got home feeling down about my bank account being so low on funds again.   I open my bank app, type in my password and realized that I only have eight dollars and some cents in my account.   I know my husband put money in my account.   When I take a look at the transactions, I see that he put $40 in my account yesterday.   Where did it all go???   I hadn’t been out spending money.   I notice a charge from the Family Mart, in my neighborhood.   It was suspect because I thought that had already hit my account.   I performed a search of transactions with “Family Mart” and something from the barbershop, that I take my son to, came up.   Now I knew that I had some problems with their system, that day, when I took my son to get his hair cut.   They couldn’t perform the transaction and after one attempt, we cancelled it. I went to the ATM to get cash, to pay. ...
