Today was the day I was supposed to be a bride and be come a wife. The day was a slew of mixed emotions, but I think I handle them pretty well. Instead of concentrating on what would have been, I threw myself into errands and work. Not only that, but I was once again reminded of a lesson that I had already learned. That lesson being that God is faithful to His children. Never forget to praise God through your storm, because His faithfulness and guidance is what helps you get through it.

I began the day by getting up, getting dressed and running to Stater Bros. for mom. After getting out of the store, I decided I really needed some liquid energy so where did I go? Oh yeah, I went to Starbucks and got my Caramel Frappachino. It was delicious lol.

On my way home, I made a quick call to James, because I owed him an apology that was overdue. Still don't see how he thought I had nothing to apologize for lol. But it made me feel so much better to apologize. I'm glad to know that I can count on him if I ever need to talk to someone.

Anyway! After arriving home, I found out I bought the wrong product. So I was sent back to the store. Ugh, that was not fun. I hate holding up the check out line because of a dumb exchange. So, yeah I finally got the right product and hurried home.

After my time spent in the car, I decided to clean it. It took me a good bit to get it done simply because I really cleaned it. I didn't just toss the trash and straighten up the trunk; I deep cleaned it. I used interior wipes and wiped down everything. I threw myself into cleaning my car and listening to my music on full blast and I wasn't feeling bad at all. Quite the opposite in fact. I was feeling pretty good and when I finally got my car cleaned I felt accomplished.

After cleaning my car I went into my room and spent maybe a little too much time alone and idle. I started to think about what would have been and I thought of the two sides of the coin. As much as I was excited about being a bride and becoming a wife, I was also so thankful because I know God took me out of a horrible situation. I, in no way, regret my decision to leave. I only regret that it took me so long to do it. Dumb fear. So by the end of my thoughts, I was saying a prayer of thanksgiving. Prayer really is so important! I ended up listening to my music; The full versions of the songs I have posted on this blog page. I just felt so grateful and excited. It's amazing what God does for you in times of need when you turn to Him!

I wrapped up my night with some good old exercise lol. I hopped on the treadmill and walked two miles at a brisk pace. After that I took a shower and now here I am. I made it through this day! I was so prepared for today to be difficult, but it really turned out alright. God really has a way of working things out. I feel as if He has reassured me that my future will be better than I can possibly imagine. God is great and greatly to be praised!
