Hello, everyone. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Mine was a bit unconventional, but I am thankful for the experience. This afternoon, I have a home inspection scheduled, and I am hoping for a smooth process. As I look to the future, I am still searching for a new place to call home. However, I am facing a significant financial challenge. Even with a budget of $170,000, I am still short by approximately $21,000, and the options in my desired area are limited. The rental market is also extremely challenging, with prices that are out of reach. Although I may be eligible for Section 8 housing, the waitlist in Alabama is extensive, and applications are not currently being accepted. I am unsure about how I will overcome this financial challenge, but I have faith that a solution will be provided. As we approach the new year, I am hopeful that 2026 will bring improved health, peace of mind, and prosperity in all areas of our lives. I would like to remind everyone that they are not alone in their struggles, and I encourage you to seek guidance from a God, I will admit this has been so hard for me and I have given it to God and taking it back and giving it to God and taking it back 100 times over I am only human. Although I may not receive the answers I seek in this lifetime, I am confident that I will eventually understand the purpose of my journey. I wish you all a wonderful Saturday afternoon and a blessed Sunday. Thank you for taking the time to read my update, and I am grateful for your presence in my life.

  1. Debbie I can understand how you feel. I left the home that we built and paid for and went to live with my mother. I didn’t have any money because my husband at the time took the money out of our accounts. I had a job and helped pay for part of the bills. I eventually bought some land and put a modular home on it. I moved into a small house and bought it. God will show you the path to follow. Please don’t give up your hope. 🙏🏻🩷🙏🏻 love you

    1. Thank you, my friend. I think about you every day. I hope you will be going home very soon. I believe you said the seventh however you may be home already and I just don’t know it don’t you worry I’m not gonna give up. Hope, because Hope is all I have to hold onto God‘s promises that he will meet my needs and I believe that wishing you a healthy, happy joyous and prosperous, 2026.

  2. I am sorry you are going through all this. I was not sure what was going on so I now see in your blog about your separation. This is terrible and I’m so sorry you have to go through this at this time in your life 🥺
    I have a similar background with my parents as you did. Christian mother and alcohol father. I’m sure we could have a great chat…but nonetheless, I’m praying for you 🙏🙏🙏🩷🤍🩷

  3. 20 years ago I found myself in your shoes. Separation with divorce to follow and being forced to move to my hometown. Not enough money to buy and no appropriate rentals and no job waiting. I prayed and cried every day. One day I saw an ad in the hometown paper for my old job, applied and got it. Still no place to live. My best friend since elementary school with a small home and husband and children made room for me to move in with them until something else came along. And it did. It wasn’t in my time but God’s time. Slowly, very slowly, I kept putting one foot in front of the other. Husband became an ex and “bought” our children and grandchildren’s love even though he was the one with the girlfriend. Now 20 years has passed, that husband died. Children inherited his estate and never answered my calls. I have remarried and retired. Life isn’t what I expected but it’s mine. I still pray and thank God for the blessings I do have. Life can be hard, You can be stronger than anything thrown your way as long as you believe in God.

    1. Thank you for sharing that piece of your life with us. I cannot imagine God certainly stood beside you, my dear friend. It’s ironic how we see our lives when we’re going through something horrific and we look back and we can just see God‘s handprints all over it. Wishing you a blessed new year, my dear.

    2. Thank you for sharing your story and yes, God did provide 20 years ago when I was 50 I think I could’ve gotten through this a little easier I can’t promise but I think I could. 70. I’m still with the program it just seems like things are a little bit harder and don’t come as easily as they used to the physical aspects of it are a lot harder and juggling things can sometimes just wear me down when 20 years ago, I was the juggling queen wishing you and your family, a blessed, healthy and prosperous, 2026.

  4. Hi Debbie, My Facebook is always slow, I just now saw your post. I had a very nice Christmas, a few disappointments, which I will have to overcome. I’m praying that God will meet all of your needs Debbie, wherever He leads you, whatever is His will, that you will be better off and farther ahead than you were last year at this time. God Bless you dear friend!

    1. I’m so glad you saw it and please try to remember to come over a couple of times a week cause I’ll be posting here and I want to stay connected with all of you and what is going on in my life right now. We all have issues. Don’t get me wrong but sometimes when we know, people are no of them and their battles and trials and we see them triumph by God’s grace it gives us hope!

  5. I believe you will soon have more than enough for an even better home as the Lord is giving back to the world what the enemy has stolen! Hang on just a little bit longer and your dents will be paid off and you can start anew with plenty to share. God bless you, Sweet Debbie!

  6. Hope your home inspection goes well, Debbie! Sometimes life can be challenging.
    The city water department notified us right before Christmas Day that our water meter was showing a continuous flow. Pretty sure it’s slab leak. So waiting to hear from the leak detector company to schedule a time for them to find it. Hopefully, someone can come Monday and the plumbers can come fix it the next day. I think it’s under the slab in the kitchen, because water pressure is very low, but not the bathrooms.🤦‍♀️
    I do hope your housing situation will improve soon.
    One of the plumbers we use did come to our house yesterday to confirm the slab leak. Love, Susan

  7. We had to a good Christmas. I will be praying that this next chapter has a smooth transition. God will make a way for you to find your new phone and begin your new future.

  8. Praying for you Debbie, that the answers you are seeking. God will give you the answers soon, just remember it’s all in his timing. In the mean time he walks in front of you to clear your way, beside you in case you stumble, and behind you, to hold you up when you think you can’t go on. And he always makes sure you have what you need, maybe not what you want. But he’s a loving God and will always take care of his children.

  9. My Christmas was very nice. Had my son and family here. They left this afternoon. Always sad to see them go. Hope your home inspection goes well and you find the right home soon.🙏🙏🙏take care .❤️
