Crafty Cat
|
Hello all!! Wondering about the title are you?? Well read on...to find how I went from Scaredy Cat to Crafty Cat.
I am a 34 year old divorced single mom of an amazing 10 year old boy. Being single and raising a son without the help of others is surely scary. Never knowing if you can provide all the things needed let alone a few of the things wanted. Life has not been easy but the past year has been a most definite struggle.
In June of '05 I became ill and lost my job for being absent 9 days per doctor's orders. I was undiagnosed until November '05 when the doctor looked me square in the eye and told me I am the classic case of Fibromyalgia, though Lupus has not been ruled out. Fear surely set in.....what would I be capable of doing to provide for my son and myself? I started back with the company I had worked for prior to the job I lost and currently work as a Private Duty Aide caring for the elderly and disabled on a contingent basis. I love my job and being able to bless the lives of others. My hours are not definite which makes it hard.
In the midst of all this uncertainty my thoughts kept coming back to my God given ability and love for arts & crafts. Fear still crept in....Who would want to buy something I made? So here I am stepping out in faith hoping I can be a blessing in your life and others through my arts & crafts.
AND that's how Scaredy Cat became Crafty Cat. God bless!
