I’m pretty positive all of the bad things that have happened to me recently was God preparing me to take care of my friends.
Getting dumped.
A few weeks later my uncle passing.
And a week later my dog passing.
A week later sweet Heidi passed away.

All the hard things happened at once. But God was preparing me for this week. He knew I’d need to pick up my friends.
I’d like to say I’ve been doing an okay job.

Today I got my letterman jacket. It’s probably the first genuine happiness I’ve felt in months. <.3
And then some girl says, "Anyone can letter in tennis."
And I was surprised when I found that getting angry wasn't the first thing I did.
I just replied, "Not just anyone can love what they do."
And it is true.
Instead a family friend came along and said, "She's not just anyone."
I'm happy that things are shifting around for me. And I'm happy I have such sweet people in my life.
I'm proud of myself.

XOXO
A New Nealie. ❤
