Haven't found a job yet (have applied for several more since I last posted), but this is sort of related since it involves finances.
So, my service dog Leon has to see a dermatologist next week for the spots on his belly/thigh. Will cost a good chunk of money and things will be really tight finance-wise, but I have to take care of my boy.
Well, that means that I definitely cannot afford to buy the regalia (cap, gown, hood and tassel) to be able to walk in the graduation ceremony in December.
One of my friends sent me a message asking if I would be able to walk if she sent me 70 dollars. I said I would feel bad taking money from her and her husband because they have so many medical expenses going on. She told me that I couldn't refuse a graduation gift.
I am overwhelmed by this. I get to walk in December now!
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
