My period started and tired, which makes my moods worse, especially when things go wrong like today. My mum Glenda said when I told her that it was my PMS and being tired, it was lame excuse. She threatened me. I’m forced to get up with her to help her with her VIPTEACHER job. They were issues and likely get money taken away because of it. Don’t know why they gave her many students, lately, as usually lucky to get 1 rarely. Hope these many classes stop soon! It interferes with important things. I hope they stop giving classes as it interferes with my health and life, my mum’s health and life. She and I need to focus on my dad Alan who is sick and needs surgery, and get the house cleaned (as much as possible) and things like this job are making things worse even if nothing bad happened in the first place. Hope that my left foot recovers as something also landed on it and that my legs work well for Sunday as they been painful. I hope my parents don’t notice what I bought today.

I am asking for prayer for my relationship with Ralph Junior Fazenbaker III. We were married and shared a deep love, but our relationship ended in divorce after a painful season of misunderstandings, conflict, and mistakes that I deeply regret. My heart still loves him very much, and I carry sincere remorse for the ways I hurt him and the tension that developed with his daughter, Averie. Please pray that God softens Ralph’s heart and heals the pain and resentment between us. I am praying that the love we once shared is restored and that his heart becomes open again to reconciliation and rebuilding a loving relationship together. I ask that God replace anger, hurt, and misunderstanding with forgiveness, compassion, and renewed love. Please also pray that God continues to transform me, guide my actions, and help me grow into the partner and stepmother I want to be. I pray for healing, peace, and restoration for Ralph, for Averie, and for our relationship, and that our hearts are led back together in love and unity. Amen.
