Welcome and hello again from Oceanside. More below! I was going to go to church today I could have but I am battling being sick and with one week left of school it is like why body why? I was getting sick on Thursday already and then got what happened below and well its getting worse. Ick.
1. School going alright. I am almost done. I have loads of homework due tonight for my online class. Radio I did my radio show last week as in my 1 hour on the air was so nervous was gonna die. I was not clever I tried to be. I am like still deciding how it works and if I should try to do this show in the Spring. I guess I can sign up and decide later and such. Or talk to the manager and my teacher and how it works. Can I do this at least once a week? A real show? Where I put my shows on the air. Or should I just say good bye to radio forever and let it drift away in the wind? I am praying about this and if it is the right thing it WILL work out but it was nerve racking for real
2. My sister celebrated her latest birthday. Now mine is coming up fast. Like in a week and 3 days. I will be gulp 38. This has been SOME year for me and us in general. So much has happened. Things I never dreamed would happen. And things I knew would happen. And so on. What a year. But yeah happy birthday little sis. We had to go to school so truly the only thing we did on her birthday was dinner at the Spaghetti Factory it was really yummy!
3. Welcome back GYM! Went on Tuesday for the first time in two weeks. My job thankfully giving me lots of full shifts meant no gym time. My only time last week but good to be back even for just one day. Yes
4. Work is going alright. I had lots of hours last week and then lost two of my days. Truly not fun. But it had to be done. I could NOT help it. That is 3 call outs for me for 1 year. I rarely call out. I spent 2016 call out free and now have done it 3x this year. Oh well hope I will have a new job soon and this won't matter
5. Well I saved the biggest news for last. We got evacuated from our home on Thursday night. I went to work watching a fire burn far from us I thought. Not knowing it would be the last time I would see our house till Saturday night. The fire burning on the border of Oceanside and Bonsell (sp?) called the Lilac Fire. It is now contained at 60%. Well it got kinda bad. We went from almost the warning zone which is like a watch for a tornado it could come so be cautious. To a mandatory pretty fast. My poor sister barely off doing stuff at school. I think she didn't work did she? I cant recall. Well she had to buy a carrier for our other cat. At that time we not even in the warning area yet. We suddenly jumped to mandatory around 8:30pm. I was off work at 9:30 I had been there since 2. My sister got my parents out and we all came to get me from work in 2 cars. At almost 12am we left for San Diego closest we could get was by the airport and it filled up fast. We got there around 3am and went to bed at 6am. We slept there for 2 days. The area got changed to warning around 7pm on Friday night. But we stayed till Saturday afternoon leaving last night. My parents left hours before. WE are still in the warning area it has not changed. But the winds are calm today nothing like Thursday the most powerful they have ever seen EVER seen. The fire is now at 60% it was 50% last night when we left the area. But could burn till the 21st just after my birthday. My sister is joking she had a nice birthday something was going to happen after no joke. 24hrs after we were eating dinner we were being told to leave our house. They call btw they call on the phone twice they called. My parents freaking out what to bring we are not an organized family. Had the house burned we would have lost a lot. Our stuff in boxes. This is pushing my sister and me during the break to truly go through our crap and get it organized so IF this heaven forbid ever happen again we could get it all out. Yeah about that. But God is in control. I refused to back down. Even as I cried saying God is good. It was not easy. But God is still good He is still in control. This felt out of control but it was 100% and still is in His hands. I trust Him. I trust in Him who can see tomorrow and has it all laid out. God is still in control!
Well that is all friends. This week and next are hopefully less exciting. But the zoo and birthdays and we are wrapping up our yea r. Being evacuated my first ever will be added to my odd things of this year but it ended at least for us good. Many prayers for the fireman as they continue to battle our fire and 5 others burning in the state. Pray for California we are not out of the woods yet but God is still in control. God bless you all see you all next weekend!
