Thanks Oprah!
I have some crazy news for those of you out there reading this. After all my hard work during training, the bank fired me this afternoon. They stated I wasn't learning things fast enough. They were concerned with my pace. They said they were concerned that if I moved on as planned I'd just get buried under the responsibility. They told me I could go home an hour and a half early. They would count my drawer down under duel control. They said they were impressed with my social skills. I didn't say anything. I couldn't trust my voice. I stood up and the controlled tears came. I'm not an emotional type usually. I went and got my things and left.
As soon as I got outside and got in my car, I let everything go. I was sobbing. I called my mom and let her know. I've been chatting with her everyday about the progress. I cried when I called Andy, my husband, to tell him. I called my sister, Karly, who just got a similar job at a different bank. I cried the rest of the way home.
By faith, I have a job appreciates all of me. It is a custom built to fit all my skills. I am free to go to church. I got this job a week to two weeks ago. The pay is above minimum wage and the benefits are great. It is close to my house and will let me go to school next semester. I am very blessed. I am celebrating this victory.

I walked in the door to see Oprah's show about life's choices. They were talking about the book
"The Secret" and several other books on the same vein. I don't necessarily believe everything they were conversing about. However, I was reminded in the midst of the show that faith is a powerful tool we've been given. I will be just fine. I WILL remain focus on the goals I have. God has provided for me for this sprint in my life. I still have the rest of this marathon to go.
