What do you know...another new one for the ranks! My name is really Yvette but I love my grandkids and have a website called Grammyluv's Nest so we'll just keep with that! Beside's being a grammy and mother of 3 adult children, I love the Lord and am very outspoken and have seemed to become politically minded lately. I see so much going on in these last days that make me shake my head and really want to do something. And yet at the same time I know these things must happen before Christ's return. We'll talk more on that later.
There is so much more I want to tell you about me! I enjoy many hobbies. I'm an avid camper. I still perfer a tent! I love the Seattle Mariners and go to games when I can. I also do the "traditional" grammy stuff like sew, crochet, craft, paint, write poetry, cook and love on my kids and grandkids! I work full time for a large software company and I have a heart for homeless women and children and may be making that a full time occupation soon! God willing.
I look forward to meeting you all and discussing current issues among other topics!

I am so excited! Good Morning all!
A few years ago through life and circumstances I found myself homeless. Although I had accepted Christ at an early age I had backsliden very far and for many years. When I ended up homeless. After a few months and after crying out to Him, He picked me up and placed me in a Women and Children's shelter in Seattle. I spent 2 years there and completed their program and went on to do an internship. After completing that I went to live in their transitional housing for another year. During that time I found a job at a very large software company here in the northwest as a receptionist and I've been working there for about 2 1/2 years now.
Well I stayed close to my friends and mentors at the mission and would visit from time to time. There has not been a day that has gone by that I haven't thought about them and prayed for them and the new women that have gone through there. I spoke to the women at one of their graduations and shared my testimony and what God has done for me since leaving there. I had developed such a heart for the homeless and have thought many times about things that I'd like to share with them.
Here is the exciting part folks....Last week out of the blue I got a phone call from one of the directors asking if I would be interested in interviewing for a case management position!!! It is what I have been praying and hoping for! I interviewed last night after getting off of work at my regular job. It went exceedingly well and I will be doing a second interview on Monday with a panel of about 5 I guess. But here is the deal... I know them all!! I won't be interviewing with strangers but people I know and love!
Even though I am barely getting by now financially, and this will mean a cut in pay, I am trusting the Lord that if He wants me there I will be and He will provide! I will be in ministry and giving the same hope and encouragement that I received while there and that would be my dream come true!
I am so excited that I can hardly stand myself!
Prayers for God's will accepted!
Yvette (Grammyluv)

Hi All! I just wanted to let you all know that I'm doing great in my job. I love it and I'm staying very busy! Some sad news: I have my home computer hooked up to a land line and my phone was shut off yesterday due to lack of funds.  I will get it switched back on probably in the next week but wanted you to know that will MIA for awhile and I will miss you all something awful!! I'm at work now and can't stay on here right now but didn't want you all to worry and wonder. In Christ, Yvette  |

I'm sure that all here will miss you, too. I know that I will miss those witty posts.
Praying you will be able to get all taken care of soon.

I'll check tomorrow to see which arm and leg they want to get me turned back on.  I'll get a little change from my last paycheck from Microsoft then. Just can't live without my computer.....all my friends live in there! Talk to you soon!  Yvette |
