Yesterday...gone. Today...dream job!

Yesterday, I had a funny story about the robin who always builds her nest right outside our front door. Each year she attacks us every day, on our way out, until the baby birds have launched. So, I spent yesterday tearing straw and bits of string out of the bush to the right of our entryway and the robin spent her day putting the nesting material back in there. But that was yesterday and today that story has fizzled to flat soda.

Yesterday, I had a rant ready about how I am the way God made me and I cannot change, so people better just get used to it. But before sitting down to write the post, I decided to read a bit of my latest book, The Christian Atheist. The bookmark was at chapter 7. The title: 'When You Believe in God but Don't Think You Can Change'. (you've got to be kidding me) This author guy, Craig Groeschel, was saying stuff like, "A lie believed as truth will affect you as if it were true." and "With people, change may be difficult, even impossible- but not with God. God is bigger than our problems, no matter what they are. If you believed that you simply can't change, acknowledge that that is a lie. With God, all things are possible."

 Can you believe this stuff?

But that was yesterday and today that story is ashes, burned up by the truth of God's word from Mark 10:27.

Today I'll just write about how excited I am for Fashionista. She applied for several jobs, including ice cream dipping at the Dairy Dog. But the one job she really wanted was the sales job at the super hip clothing store out at the mall. This morning, she is helping customers get their fash on- selling clothes at the super hip clothing store out at the mall. The girl got her dream job!

 By the way, to all you Random Dozeners who are for the gladiator sandals- Fash can sell you a pair.
