New Swim OUtfit for a Special Occasion

 Dreaming of transitioning back to Western Colorado where friends are family, I bought a couple items to celebrate the occasion when it becomes a reality.

One Sunday I stopped at a Ross store and found this swimsuit which I tried on. The size is a little bigger than what I normally wear. So I put it back.

Well, I couldn't get it out of my mind. So, on Tuesday, which is senior discount day at Ross stores, I returned to look for it. I first went to another store but couldn't find it there. Then, I returned to the other store and couldn't find it where I found it. Feeling brought down, I found a couple other items that I had seen the other day and bought those. I was relieved to find them. One was on clearance and the other didn't have a price tag. So I took my chances.

While in line to purchase them, I found the swimsuit hanging in the Q-line. Apparently, someone else who was in line to buy it had changed their mind. So I grabbed it. 

I was so excited that I couldn't keep the joy to myself and told the young gal behind me in line. She rejoiced with me and asked if I had a special occasion for it. I told her I am hoping to return to Colorado soon and wear it at the Hot Springs Pool. She was pleased to hear it.

When I went to pay for everything, the cashier looked up the price on the short skirt which was missing a price tag and discovered it was also on clearance. I got a huge deal! Everything was 10% off because of the senior discount. It ended up being a happier day!

Then, I looked on Amazon at Sketchers because of an ad I got in the mail, to see if I could find a better deal on sneakers. It was the I saw these sandals. They were in my size and the only pair left. So I snatched them. I got them delivered to me on a Sunday which was a surprise to me.

But the thing that was so significant to me was the leading of the Holy Spirit through this process and how He reserved this outfit for me. I didn't get to the store to find the swimsuit until Tuesday afternoon and I was able to find it again. That in itself is a miracle!
