So today I began this process.. I mailed in my retainer and signed paperwork!! Instead of doing it first thing today, I kept doing other things, feeling anxious all day. By about 3 o'clock, I got it all ready. About 5 minutes after I sealed the envelope to get the paperwork on its way, I was notified I had won a small raffle where I work. I won an Alex and Ani bracelet! I was so excited as I never win anything. When I picked it up, the saying on the bracelet could not have been more perfect. It was "Live a Happy Life", with words of "courage, appreciation and choice". I want to think that it may have been a small sign that I have made the right choice. It was a nice way to begin my weekend!!

What a wonderful start! I believe that if we keep ourselves open to the blessings we invite them in.
Keep focused on the positives, you will get through this.

I love signs. I always feel like it's a little nod from the universe that I'm on the right path.
Awesome surprise for you!

Congrats on winning the raffle. Fun, huh? I know I would definitely consider that a SIGN! How perfect were the sayings?!
I think you should wear it through this difficult time& look at it when you need encouragement.
Big hugs.
