The Split......

Ok so last Friday was an interesting one to say the least. First let me tell you briefly about my job (day job that is). I am a medical biller for an independent company here in Central that is hired by local (and some not) doctors offices, practices, chiropractors, ect. We keep them open basically and bring in their bacon... one clinic collects hundreds of thousands of bucks each month, and we are responsible for getting all of it from pt and insurance companies. Not to mention we code charts.... blah blah... you know lots of medical jargon i wont bore you with. ANYWAY, I work for a small company... their is 12 total. Our partners handle the Imaging center and all 5 employees work in the building in front of ours.
  All that to say Friday we had a meeting with our 2 bosses..... to let us know, they are splitting!!!!! FREAK OUT mode initiated instantly in my head, right? Cause the following news is, not everyone has a place. 1 small company, split into 2 even smaller ones .... ok, great, im out of a job i just know it. The split is a great thing and on great terms it just allows us to cater to our clients better.They leave it at that saying they will let us know the following week who is going where.... lovely! Well later that day MY boss comes to me and asks me if I will go with her... she wants me on her team!! Praise the LORD! She is moving our office to denham and is giving me a raise!!! Later she meet with each of us that she picked sharing how this has been her dream for a long time but has never been Gods timing. (I did not know she heard from God, and was lol "that" kind of Christian). Can i say tears were flowing from my eyes as she shares why she felt Gods blessing on each one of our lives and believed and trusted us to take on this journey God has laid out for all of us!!!!! She draws on the board ... not statistics, marketing, goals or money marks (all the things that makes or breaks us) but a circle with the word "PURPOSE" in it.... she explains our purpose is God. BAM, thats our business plan!!! HOW LUCKY AM I????
   Like I said I knew she was a good boss, treats us good, doesnt cuss and Ive heard her mention in passing "pray" or what not, but to find out she is a born again Christian was beyond my wildest dreams!!! I knew God placed me with this job, and I dont question when my responsibilities changed from week to week, now i know why and so happy I listened to HIM. This job will not only be good for my career, bank account but now strength and based around the LORD?! Holy smokes what an awesome God indeed we serve!!! In another wise very difficult time in my life (and still stressful job) knowing that she walks so strongly with the Lord makes me very proud to work with her and Cant wait for us to branchh out.... each year we have grown but OVER 100% of the last so I have no fear of not succeding and looking very much forward to all the new things I will be doing in this as well. For real, this is a ground breaking, family first, ground up and God grown company!!!!! ;)

Been too LONG

   So to say the very least I have been quite the busy bee and when I land I normally have crashed and crashed hard. Typing in front of a comp is what I do all day, then waitress at night.... 2 things I want nothing to do with once im home. But things are better now, I have found my balance and I am truly amazed at all God has done with me in this time. He has actually shown me how to be happy slowed down and He is doing a wonderful job providing for us. After serving for 9 years I have a tendancy to veiw nights and weekends too important (financially) to just sit at home or be out spending money so I worked... alot, all the time. Starting Jan God gave me no choice but to wait, listen, trust and slow down... have to say I love it!! Yes I still have 2 jobs but I balance them well, I veiw things different and count it all a blessing from God knowing what is truly important.
     I am learning to be more layed back which is a first. After the first month of hair pulling stress at my new job (medical biller) I have to say I dont think my boss and fellow employees thought I'd hack it. Untill I realized I was digging my own grave, and making my dream job miserable. Lol, finally my boss said in passing "do what you can, leave it on your desk at the end of the day and it will be there to start fresh in the am" dont stress. Well DUH!!! Hello here I was never thinking enough was never enough, have to do more, this or that took too long, this deadline is comming up, and that goal has to be meet. All valid things but for everyone, I realize THAT will always be the case.... THAT i cant change... I CAN change how I am and appoach it. Yeah still get stressed, but not to the point I or anyone around me is affected. GROWTH!!
    Chilis... well this taught me patience in a different way, getting hired took a month (4 interview process per CHILIS policy) then because they really didnt need a new server (but I was too good to pass up) and with my schedule training took 3 weeks!! Mind you I came from 11 shifts a week at Sammy's!! During this time I was forced to wait, slow down and trust God.... guess what He came through and taught me a lot!! I LOVE CHILIS, I like/need the extra income but pace myself and refuse to work every night (i cut myself off at a 70 hour week :) )
   I still have a ton to learn, grow and listen to God.... I have 3 huge battles I am struggling with as well personally, but Im getting there.... slowly but surely! Thats all for now, shower and bed but I wanted to get back into blogging and documenting my progress ;)
