***UPDATE: SHE FOUND HER NEW HAPPY HOME!!!***

📣Calling all my vendor friends📣

This beautiful girl needs a home. Unfortunately, I don't have the space for her right now. 😔

She was used as a vendor display cabinet at the farm, but since they have changed over to a restaurant, they no longer need it.

She's big, sturdy and raw wood. There is a small corner of a drawer missing.

Pick up for free near Sebastian River High School.

PM me if interested!!

Dear Diary,

I'm still alive & I am breathing.

It's been an uphill battle, but I'm making my way over the mountain. I have spent so much time delving into myself. I've been writing with a fury, healing and finding purppse again. I cannot wait to be back!

With Faith, Prayers & 🐓❤️

Dear Diary,

Ive been writing again.

Little girl...

Open your eyes like it's Christmas morning.
Always remember a new day is dawning

Little girl,

Unpack your dolls,
Remember friends that you know.
Forget all the memories,
That you have in tow

Bask in the sunshine,
& play in the rain...
One day you'll be fine,
& you won't remember the pain...

So little girl,

Pull out your tea set,
& Wear your crown
& never forget
You will never, ever drown...

You don't have to hide
The monsters inside
To all of which you confide,..It isn't real.

You'll walk through the valley
To come out tough
One day you'll know
That you were always enough...

So little girl,

Unpack your case
You are stronger,
The effort wasn't a waste.
You were truly meant to wander.

But not in the hallways of your dreams
Where sadness & pain
Is all that it seems
You will push & fight
to stake your claim...

So little girl,
You're a big girl now.

The sun will shine bright
You put up the fight
To know...Little girl...
You're gonna be alright.

Wow. Just wow.

The ability to be so raw with another human & to come out on the other side, validated...loved...supported...

Just wow. All I can say, real men do still exist.

The Rusted Rooster is taking a different turn. As much as I loved paint, rust & dust...I'm uncovering the underlying passion that has always propelled me.

There is a fire in my heart & an insatiable need in my fingertips. There is a support beyond measure...

With Faith, Prayers & Rooster Love,
🐓❤️

Dear Diary,

I witnessed a miracle today.

I was able to witness the true love & light of a Christian.

My last entry was about how difficult some people can be.

Yesterday, my boss had to face that. The person who had been so hateful & mean requested a call back.

My boss...This woman, in her beautiful grace...took a moment. She took a breath. She reviewed all of the notes...then she dialed.

As she placed her fingers on the keypad to punch in the numbers said, "Lord help me to be compassionate. Allow me to hear this conversation & speak with your grace" 🥹

To hear a prayer like that before what could have been a battle, relaxed me.

A message was left. But I took comfort in knowing, I had a leader. Not only in the office, but also in my heart, my soul & my faith.

It reminded me of my mentor. A beautiful & amazing woman of intgrety, morality & faith. (With a Wildcat heart)

That was it yesterday.

Today at the end of the day, the phone rang. I saw the name on the caller ID. I thought about not picking up, but it's literally my job. So...Deep gulp....

This person was pleasant, willing to listen, allowed me to speak, communication was open! We had a productive conversation & she even thanked me & said goodbye this time.

My takeaway...

Everyone is struggling
Everyone is hurting

Sometimes you just need to open up & love through the hard times.

&&& pray on everything.

With Prayers, Faith & 🐓❤️

Dear diary,

It's been a while. Ugh. Life has been hard. But, making it through...

Office life is difficult. Service life is difficult. People are difficult. Getting verbally accosted & threatened by customers is difficult.

Did she mean it? Probably not. Did my professionalism & faith have to outweigh my inner Harley-Quinn & Philly/FL FAFO attitude? Of course. Did I have to put it all to the side in order to answer the next phone call...YES!

But I did. I will answer every call with the same smiling voice that every human deserves.

This week has been a hard & tough reminder...

PSA. Be kind. Remember...the person on the other end of the phone is the person you are calling for help.

In today's world of keyboard warriors, who don't remember what a true, playground slap is like...Remember. You are asking for assistance.

Dear Diary,

It was a much better week. I feel like I am not only breathing, but I am living again.

I would say I had the opportunity, but realistically, I made the conscious effort & choice to go back to my church home last week for Bible study.

"I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." ~John 15:5

Fruit.

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law." ~Galatians 5:22-23

Joy.

Joy is a fruit of the Spirit. A fruit only comes from the branches of a well cared for tree or vine.

I fell away from cultivating a good relationship with God.

I had no joy. I had no peace. I questioned love & my goodness. Gentleness & self-control were a thing of the past. Kindness & forbearance were just words, not actions or reactions in such an evil and tested world.

I succumbed to life on this earth. I stepped back & allowed it to consume me.

I lost sight of who I was and the greatness my God has sculpted me for.

I became stagnant.

It took one week. One night. One choice. One step...For God's loving arms to bring me back from months of uncertainty & depression.

I will comtinue to make the choice everyday. The choice to glorify God in all that He continues to bestow. The choice to break free from the chains the enemy tries to shackle me in.

I will continue to chose joy everyday.

With Faith, Prayers & Rooster Love 🐓❤️
