Born or not born

Today I was hung up on by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts registry office. I called them to verify if the copy of my birth certificate was official. I have used it to get a passport, marriage certificate, a California drivers license so why won't the state of Texas accept my birth certificate. The Texas DPS office told me it wasn't official since it didn't have a seal (which it does) and that it doesn't look like the official one from the state. This whole process has been so frustrating and to be hung up on didn't help. So I had to go to their recommended website to order an "official copy" of my birth certificate for 90 dollars (which I don't have because we are officially broke) just so I can get my TX license to update at my PT job and in case I need to show ID for whatever the reason may be.

I apologize if this sounds like a pity party rant but I am just exhausted by the hunt. The hunt for a job with benefits, decent pay (I don't even care if it is good pay just so I can pay the bills matters to me now) and a church that I can call home. I miss Calvary, I miss WACC, here in TX it feels like you need to be showy of your money or showy of how much you love God. And right now I am just tired, tired of being patient and tired of trying to figure out since we are early to the party (moved to soon to TX) what God is trying to tell us. I know I was running from exhaustion and frustration but I think we could have stayed longer in Omaha and would have been happy at least one of us would have had a job.

Wow now this really does sound like a pity party. I just ask for your prayers and comments. Maybe we should sell it all and whatever is left pack up, put it in storage and move to Africa. At least there I could feel like I was making a difference in someone's life and that I was needed for something. Enough of the pity party for now, being hung up on really brought some frustrating feelings up to the surface. When I write again it will be on better terms.

Check please, Pity Party for 1 is out.

Hopefully Joey and I will be adding to our family in the near future.

Here is the picture of the proud papa! Isn't he handsome?

Coldwater Creek

I start my new part time job at Coldwater Creek tomorrow. I am so excited to be given the chance to get out of the house and earning some money. Even though my friend Will thinks it is a spa (it would be a very odd spa), it is a fine women's clothing store. I am really excited for the chance to help women pick out some new clothes! I will let you how it goes as I start my training. Wish me luck!
