yuck

Last night had a clogged sink in kitchen. Turned on garbage disposal then I heard water backing up and splashing on floor in laundry room off kitchen. Today I tried to be my own plummer as I broke more parts as I went on. Soon the cabnet under the sink was wet and the floor was wet. My previous handyman came by to try a hand held snake that goes down the pipe. It wasn't good enough.I need a plummer with a big machine. He is so nice to come for free since I've referred him to friends and he has so many jobs now. Hard to focus on job hunting with all this going on. I did go to job preparedness seminar tonight at the Church. It was good. I'm also making tamales tomorrow. I got a call from a guy in my Church calling about helping me look for a job. Told him about the pluming. He called me back with the news he will be taking care of financial costs of plummer to fix my sink.That is so nice of them. My Church has always helped me during tough times. I prefer to be the one helping instead of the one to help. I will swallow my pride and become more humble then I've already become from tx.

Really really beginning to feel great

Last week I had vein treatment on a leg then a week later..on Tuesday had a follow up treatment to do more small veins. This time the doctor just did injections. Again it was interesting to me to see it on the ultrasound as he did it. I could see the needle going in. He was training another doctor at the time so I could understand everything. So once again I have to wear a support stocking for a week on this leg. Then I'll have two more treatments. Then the other leg. I'm happy to get this done by such a good doctor.
My son moved in a couple of days ago. I need his help with house bills. So thankful he moved in here. Just nice having him around.
I'm working on my resume and turning out quite well. I didn't know how many skills I had till I put them to paper. I had to slow down the past ten years with illness but I still have volunteer work to put on my resume. Also, I've been helping a service business this past year. I've installed software and helped him become more organized. Just writing this down has helped my self esteem. I've been feeling beat down after so many health problems with hcv and then post tx.
As I look back in my life, I know my prayers are being heard and answered. I'm constantly wanting to do The Lords will, not mine. I feel he knows all things and knows what is best for me, better then I do. As I have that desire to do as he would have me do, I feel he will help me achieve this desire. I need strength, health, clear mind, and a path. I know it will work out.
This week, I have been mowing the yard, keeping the pool clean and in working order, cleaning house, and working. I've worked at the shop. Even made 8 dozen tamales last week. Now working on my resume for job interviews. Every Sunday in Church they always circulate sign up sheets for service and I pass them by. My health has been low. This last week I signed up to take some food to the mens homeless shelter this weekend. What a good feeling, to be healthy enough to have this desire to serve others.
I'm gaining the health I need. I'm feeling better then I have in years. Eating properly has helped, plus my prayers being answered. Sometimes miracles take time, lots of time. I'm beginning to feel like a miracle. My health is not perfect, although I'm coming into the light at the end of the tunnel.
I will starting a new blog with a different title since I feel post tx is over.
