A web journal

23rd March 2022
Has been a tough few months, with hopes at high, with emotions at peak. There is barely anything that humans can do to help but yet we break down sometimes and want to pick back up!!

Though it's just best to keep a journal as a gratitude post...

• Losing a job is not an easy thing being, but seeing God's provision in keeping the family together is a blessing
• Not getting a monthly paycheque is challenging but not being in debt is a blessing 
• Not getting a job is totally frustrating but being able to hold into God is promising 
• Not getting tutoring support is heartbreaking but having a God who gives intelligence is life-changing 
• Not getting fees discounts is saddening but being able to stagger it is a blessing 
• Not getting a regular tutor is sad but seeing a provision for the impossible is miraculous

With upcoming GCSEs, we decided to find some tutors for Maths & Found a tutor who was charging me a rate at a 70% discount of her usual rates that too 22 years experienced Maths tutor who is an assessor. Thank God for he knows where to lead us to 

I'm thankful for a lot of things, it broke me to bits this morning as I picked up the call to ask the school for a discount. I was sure that they wouldn't entertain any requests. But, luckily for me, no one was in my room when I called but I was still kinda whimpering ..and thought I can't be the sob story every day I decided to do a gratitude post. 

23rd March evening

25th march 

dad's angiography was done and it said he has 3 blocks 2 can be resolved using angioplasty and one cannot. feeling helpless esp for amma's sake..prayer is the only solution. Had to cook food for a family that was leaving . the plan was to share my meal prep with them and make biriyani for the night. My cooking wasn't any good ....as got worried after hearing about dad. God can turn things around. He is a healer 

26th March 

Busy still getting used to the fact that dad is not so well healthwise. But then again got busy with Betty & Laiju visiting today. It was good to see them after a long time. Got busy with baking a brownie and protein balls and got some sweet bread . Did a quick visit to Easy Life and got the boys bottles for water. Lunch was left over biriyani, and Abbie had to be dropped for H's bday at PDO club. Dropped her off in a zap and came back in time for my lesson. Busy day!!
