My Roller Coaster Life

Now that the storm has passed, I am waxing poetic, as if nothing at all happened. Content in my lot in life and ready to count my Blessings. Fact is I can't count that high. I know I said I would never again claim how wonderful things are going because of the aftermath of those posts. So this time I have waited out the SH!+ storm and I stand here celebrating mere survival! (and in this economy, that is something to celebrate)

A couple of weeks ago I was devastated to find my newest stylist had decided to cut short her employment with me. She cut and ran after only one month, stating her clients were west of town and would not be coming so far east. I got angry, then cried and wondered on my financial conundrum. Then, like a miracle, faith raised my head, and my sights, and I looked to the horizon for the next move. Faith, is all I needed. I was working, happy, and looking forward to the open window coming after the closed door.

Then the whole landlord episode came in and laid my vision flat. after my initial rant, I shut up. I decided to play it cool, and did what I was asked, and decided to seek legal advice. As it turns out, I would not need it. My landlord called today. After reading my letter, and talking it over with his wife (no doubt she told him a little about salon experiences) he apologized for upsetting me so and asked me to just not "get in her face", and he would not follow through with lease restrictions, or limit my business . I thanked him. I almost cried, what a relief !! So now as the afternoon slows down, and I get ready for a new work week, again I am happy, and secure in my corner of the world.
I know that God will never leave me or forsake me.
sometimes though, I wish he would not let my leash get so long ( I do have a habit of running off ahead, don't I???
