OMG! FINDING LUXURY AT THE THRIFT STORE * I FOUD A CHRISTIAN DIOR FUR COAT * A GUCCI CLUTCH & MORE

Hi you guys, and welcome back to Thick Chick Thrifts where you come for the fashion, but I hope you stay because you know, I love you. I know. Hey, hey, hey, hey, it has been a minute. It has been a while for all of you who have sent me all of your prayers. I have yet to be able to read all of the comments in the comment section. Life has just been lifing, but God, let me just say that, but God, I have been through a lot in the last month, but I appreciate the prayers and I'm pretty sure y'all have been praying for me, honey. I know y'all been praying for me. So please keep your prayers going. We will get to all of that in the end, which is where I love on you and we'll do the ketchup. Let's go ahead and welcome the new family in because we don't want them thinking that this is one of them humdrum girl. This is not what we do around here. So we're going to keep it nice. We're going to keep it funky and fresh and fun. So welcome back y'all. And I mean that welcome, welcome, welcome y'all. I love you. I'm so, so thrilled to be recording today and it's just a joy. I have just been putting this off and putting it off, but I have mustered up enough courage and energy to just get back on it and get back in it because I miss y'all dearly. I love you. We're going to jump into family before I go any further. I love y'all. I love you down, honey. I really hope that this is just going to be a really quick catch up and a quick look, a couple of accessories that I want to show you guys that I did manage to thrift here and there in the last month. So I've, I truly, I truly am grateful. I'm so grateful to God for this moment that just seemed like it took forever to get to. And I know y'all been wondering what's been going on where I've been. And we don't get into that, but let's get into this hair and this outfit and these quick cool accessories. And then we go chat it up. Y'all. I love you. Let's go ahead and have some fun. Y'all. All right, family. So we always start out. If you are new here, I always start out with the hair and the outfit of the day. So we don't get down to this hair, honey. Yes, we are going to go ahead and get into it. Y'all ain't seen a hairstyle for me in a couple of weeks and I'll be looking for it and I know it. So I went the last time and I'm pretty sure if you are keeping up, honey, with the thick chickness, we have been on a hairstyle, just journey, just a fun and just trying new, exciting, different things. And I found a young lady that I was just gushing over a couple of weeks ago, maybe a little bit over a month ago. And she did a Bob for me, y'all that we don't run that one back pretty soon because I loved it so much. Y'all that look $2 hair. I did not get to show you guys that I found that hair in the thrift store for $2 and 98 cent baby. And I still have one pack left. So I may be able to show you in a video to come when I go. Yeah, I may do a come with me to get my hair done and show you guys that hair. That hair was, but it's discontinued. So we ain't gonna get all into it. But this particular hairstyle she did once again, because I'm just in a place where I just don't have the time or the energy at this moment. Just tell me forever. Y'all know how I get down. I changed my hair. Listen to wind blow. Yeah, it's time to change your hair. So this particular hairstyle, she is really, really particular about her ponytails and her Bob's. And that's what I'm sticking with for a little while because I just want to switch it up. The season is changing. And I do my hair in such cool, crazy hairstyles. I just needed a moment and a break because I was doing the same repetitive hairstyles. And it was really irritating me. So sometimes you got to reach out and let somebody else touch you, honey. So, and that's what she did. So we did just a quick little swoop, um, uh, old school hairstyle, but a little twist. And she went ahead and did a braid in the back. We would have did a fishtail, but we just, I just wanted to keep it simple today. And I wanted a really simple hairstyle for, I have a lot of appointments coming up and I don't have time to be curling and doing all these things. I hope you guys enjoy. If you have any questions, I will make sure I put her information on the screen again. If you missed it, if not go back and check. Um, in the end, I will try to find the card to put it again for her information. You can screenshot it or you can Google or put all her information in. I will try to put it on the screen, but if you have any questions, baby, you know, I love you and I will pass the information off cause she is just that good. Regina girl, another slate, another slate. I looked, look, when she did my hair, I was dancing. I looked at myself in the mirror and I said, I look like I'm back in high school. This is what I look like. And this is how I wore my hair sometimes back in high school. So I look like that little girl back in high school. And I said, Lord, I look like a little girl and it was just the cutest little, but I love you and I hope you like it. Let's go ahead and jump into this cool outfit. Very comfortable, very chic, but honey, when I tell you it's so me, let's go ahead and get into it. All right, y'all. So once again, the outfit of the day, really chic, really simple. You guys, I think I have showed this before, but we are not going on today is Saturday. For those of you who are new here, I record generally on a Saturday. That's my date night. That is what I do. I do all my DIYs, cleaning, things of that nature. But today we just keep it as simple because I'm just starting to get myself back into my order of things, honey, praise God, but we're not going to do a date, date night. We just don't go grab some dinner, come home, do our date night at home and watch a movie while we enjoy our food. So this, I didn't want to throw on anything, you know, too swanky and cause I'm coming to get back on the couch, edit, eat, and just relax to God be the glory. I am just elated that I'm just here. I'm just so grateful y'all, but let's just have a whole bunch of fun. I don't have a lot. I have things to show you, but I want to keep it accessory wise today just to get my feet wet again. And then next week, hopefully we can get back into some clothes and changing clothes and all of the things. So bear with me. Pray for me. I love you. I hope you enjoy this outfit. It is thrifted. I'll step back. And what I'll do is, is just step to the side here so you can see a, just a complete head to toe of the outfit because right now I just have it on just like this and I don't have any sneakers or anything on, but the jewelry is what is the statement of the day. So I'll step back a little, um, and hopefully you're seeing here, I may throw a purse on. I may not. Like I said, we just going to pick up some takeout and take Ian, honey. So of course we're full of jewelry because to me that, that can put your outfit over the top. I don't care what you have on. You can put on something very simple and then just accessorize and it just turns into a whole nother moment. So I hope you guys enjoy this really cute, comfortable outfit. I don't care if you run an errands, go to your kid's school. You just need a five second, five minute outfit. These overalls are perfect. There is not a more perfect cause you don't have to think about the top, the bot, a simple white top, colorful top, whatever, and a overall set chef's kiss done deal. Hope you enjoy. Let's go ahead and get into these couple of accessories that I have, baby. I'm going to show you something that blew my mind, so I hope it blows yours. Let's get into it. Okay. So for my first couple of accessories, y'all, I'm going to be showing you this ring that I purchased from, and y'all know everything I'm going to be showing you is thrifted or Poshmark. I will be letting you know, um, which Poshmark stores, I will try to put it on the screen, what stores I got each piece from, but I did go on a Poshmark because I couldn't really or didn't have the energy to go out in the stores and thrift. So y'all know I'm going to find some kind of way to do a little shopping, a little retail therapy for the soul, cause that just makes me so happy. So I was on Poshmark hunting, minding my own business because we're going to be going on a vacation soon and I'm getting my things together for that. And there's a, um, I surprised my husband where I'm taking him to one of his favorite teams is the New York Jets. So we're going to New York and I'm taking him to a Jets game and you're not going to have me in a stadium and not have it all together. So I went on a hunt and could not get into thrift stores for a while. And so I was just doing a little retail therapy at home and I ran across this piece here and I'll switch fingers with this ring, but I found this gorgeous, and when I say gorgeous statement ring, I could have worn it today. Do you see how gorgeous that is? Now this ring here, I also got on Amazon. I did a haul from Amazon, but I think this thing is spectacular. It is that stretch stretch band ring and it is so comfortable. It is not pinching me in any type of way, but I thought this thing was so pretty and I only paid $6 for it and I just thought it was worth it because it is very solid. If you see the back, it is stoned and these stones just stood out perfectly to me and I think they will go perfectly with my Jets jersey that I'm going to be wearing. My plan or my idea that I see in my head, y'all know I love a good jersey moment. So I'm just going to wear a Jets jersey with a puffy bubble skirt with my thigh high or knee high converse and I'm just going to accessorize and that's going to be my moment. So I hope you guys like this. Let me know what you guys think. Let's go ahead and jump into our next couple of pieces. Okay, so you know, if you have any questions about any of the pieces that I already have on, just leave me a comment in the comment section, 99% of what you see on me is thrifted and then maybe that one, no, I'll say 95 that 1% I'm going to get from Poshmark and then I may get 1% just on a clearance rack somewhere, but for the most part, if you ever think where you got that from ask, but most of the time, y'all, I'm so sorry, but it is thrifted. But I do find pieces in places like rainbow, uh, fast fashion or wherever I'm thrift Walmart sometime, but it just depends on where I am. Now my next couple of pieces are going to be necklaces. I'm going to start off with this really cool. I want to make a back in the days we used to have these charm necklaces and they used to have all these really cool charms that you could put on necklaces. So, um, I saw a young lady on tick tock and she had on a beautiful, um, necklace, but she had a lot of brooches on these necklaces and I have plenty of necklaces, but I did not have one that was large enough. Well, I'll say the, the, the holes are, the jewelry was big enough to fit, um, a pin on. So I wanted to start and, and this one I'm, I can wear long, I can wear a broke one broach, but I have the option to either make it a charm necklace or I can double it up and I can make it into a belt. I can use this as so many different things from my local thrift store and it was $6 and 99 cents, but there was a 25% off discount. So I think I paid like almost five bucks or five bucks for this. And I just thought, what a perfect way to at least give that a try. The necklaces that I have are a lot flatter and there are a lot, the holes are not quite spaced. I don't have enough space for the actual broaches. I'm trying to see if I have a broach in here so I can show you, um, see how you have this particular thing here. If I want to, I can just take this earring, this clamp earring, and you see how that will just clamp on there and that you can just wear as the necklace and just add things on and add things on. So I'm going to be collecting a lot of these, um, flat back earring type things so I can put them on or clips on earrings so I can put them on there. But let me know if you've seen that trim before or if you've tried it before with the broaches. Let me know how that turns out cause I'm going to be doing that DIY pretty soon. That's why I purchased this one. Now I'm going to set this one to the side and I'm going to show you my favorite piece that I have found, like jewelry piece that I think I found in the last month. Now I was in that same thrift store, um, and this one was $9.99 but the oranges were 70% off. Now I do have some footage and a lot of the video I'm going to try to upload next Thursday of some of the last month that I've been through. So I may upload that this Thursday or I may start out fresh. So I found y'all, I had to share this with y'all. Look how gorgeous these stones are and look how perfect it goes with this ring. Can you see that? Look how beautiful. I think this is going to go well with that New York Jets jersey and my jersey is black and green and white has little bit of white, but mostly black. And can you see that black stone there with that little green stone? But look at that together. I thought this was so beautiful and to spend like four or $5 for this thing, I thought it was incredible, but it's vintage. It seems to be some type of vintage style. This is the opening or the class for the opening. I want to say heavy because it is pretty heavy, but it is so substantial. Let's just say that because it feels like it is very well made. I cannot wait to wear this. It is chunky and good and I'm going to layer this thing up. It kind of reminds me of those white pearls. This lighting is doing it no justice. It is so beautiful and airy because of the colors. I cannot wait to wear this y'all. This thing is absolutely gorgeous and this bell, wherever it falls, wherever this thing rotates and moves, it's going to be spectacular no matter how it falls. But this is the last of my, let's say jewelry accessories. I'm going to show you a couple more pieces and then we're going to get to a little bit of chit chat. Where you girl been honey because I miss y'all so much and I hope you miss me honey. Put it in the comment section. Hey girl, how you been? Keep me posted on how y'all doing. How you doing today? Look, before we go any further, did anybody tell you they love you today? Cause that's what I'm back here to do. I love you honey. Let's get to the next couple of pieces. Okay y'all. So for my next piece is going to be the cutest. When I say y'all, I know I have not been doing a lot of thrifting, but when I tell you how good God is, y'all know we can't do this video without just praising God throughout. So please make sure you praising him with me throughout this video. But I'm going to tell you every time I went out, God showed out. When I say his favor just kept falling on me. I was in my local DAV and I just happened to be on my way out the door. And every time I went thrifting this time, it seemed like I was not finding anything. I was not, I think because mentally I was just spent, but I just needed to get out there and start doing what I love to do. And God said, girl, get out there and trust me, baby. When I tell you I was on my way out of one day and Cameron and I were walking out and I saw this beauty. I don't know if you see what I see, but I found an authentic Gucci clutch. It is a gold tone little, it's the cutest little clutch bag, baby. When I tell you, I didn't know what it was. I just thought it was so beautiful at first. And I said to the young lady behind the counter, let me see what that is. Baby, she showed me what this thing was and I could not believe my eyes. I have never seen this thing before. When you open it up, it is lined in this beautiful. It looks like jewelry liner or, or just a gorgeous liner. And there is also a mirror in the inside and it has the numbers, the serial numbers or whatever that is for Gucci on the mirror. But I think this thing is just exquisite. Do you hear that? It is heavy, very, very solid. It is some form of a vintage Gucci clutch that they make. And this thing is worth over $2,000 and I'm talking about used y'all. So when I saw it, the price was, um, uh, one 99. And then the lady said, well, you know, military, you get 20% off tomorrow. So if you come back tomorrow and Lord knows, I said to myself, self, you know, you ain't never paid nothing, uh, paid for nothing like that in a thrift store before. So we might have to pray on this thing and wait till tomorrow. And I did. And I woke up that next morning, honey. And I said, Lord, if it is for me, it's going to be right there. And I went to the gym and I called as soon as I left the gym to see if it was still there. And guess what? It was still there. And I got it for like a hundred and no, wait, I paid one 50. So I'm not sure. I'm trying to think, was it, I paid a little over one 50. So I don't know if it was one 79. Um, and then I got the discount, but I know I paid a little, maybe one 50 and some change for it. Y'all know, I never did that before, but when I Googled the comps on this thing and saw the beauty in it, I just thought, let me know if you've ever seen this thing before. Cause I'm still doing research on it. But I just love the look of it. It's very simple. You can throw it on with whatever your outfit is and it's going to go, this is one of them date night outfits. Or even if you have on something like this and you just want to like today, just if I wanted to just show out and show you how I'm accessorizing, this would be the perfect bag. But please let me know how you feel about this one. Did I win on this one? Did I score? Google it yourself and let me know. I think I hit a jackpot with this one, but I cannot wait to show you what my all time favorite piece. I think I found so many blessed pieces this time because God just saw favored that I was still getting up fighting and I was going to try to have a good day anyway because he's so good. So I'm so grateful that I've just been enjoying my little thrift trips that I did take, but still finding some amazing pieces. Now let me show you my last two coats that I found y'all. Let me just show you. Okay. So for my first coat jacket, whatever you want to call it, I am the type of person I start looking the season before for the next season's pieces. So I started looking in the thrift stores because everybody else is trying to get all of the summer leftovers. I'm already looking for winter. So I went into the thrift store and I'll show you in a second. This was a fine out of all fives. My next one is going to be the pierre resistance, but this one, she ain't nothing about an eye over and a shake a stick at honey. You can't play with her either. This is a vintage fur, not a faux fur. This is a vintage fur and it's, I'm trying to see where the tag is, but this thing is so well made. It is fully lined. It is a bomber jacket. When have you ever saw a fur bomber jacket? And it kind of has these, um, this piping here and it cuts into a V. You can't really see the detailing because of how dark, but as you can see how my finger goes in like a V, it kind of reminds you, uh, only the old school don't get it. But you remember when that, uh, Michael Jackson jacket, that red and black one, and he had that V in the back of that black streamline. That is kind of how the streamline goes in here to cinch that in and make it a little more feminine. This thing is fantastic. Y'all, it is cinched in, in the waist. I'm going to try this thing on, um, in a second. Maybe I'll just stand to the side and then try it on. So you can see without me talking while I'm trying the thing on, but I really hope you see how cool it fits me. Perfect. When I say perfectly, it fits perfect. And this one has the ruched arm, uh, armband. So it just, no matter what you put on with this, I'm, I cannot wait to throw on some boots with either a mini skirt or some denim jeans and just a simple crisp white tee with this jacket. Baby, the accessories is going to be just come on with it. Uh, let me see if I can get close. Let me, let me interrupt the view of what you see. Can you see, uh, this thing is fantastic. Y'all can you see? Look at that thing. Look like you got waves. Did somebody put a wave cap on it? Somebody took really good care of this doggone thing, but it is, does not have the actual hood, which is cool, but this one is just beautiful. And like I said, it's fully lined and it has pockets. So that made it even better, but I absolutely adore this thing. So I hope that you enjoyed the way it looks on. And like I said, just picture it with a simple pair of denim jeans with some brown boots and a crisp white tee or a turtleneck or a mock neck, whatever neck you got, honey, that's what it's going to be. So I really hope you guys enjoy. Please let me know what you think of this fine, but y'all let me show you the next find, which is, I can't say my favorite piece, but I think when it's done, it's going to be my favorite piece I have ever. And I love that Gucci purse, but let me quit talking and show you. Let me just show you. Okay, let me take me a good little deep breath here. Oh, I just needed to do that. Every time I see this thing, y'all, I'm ready to grab it so bad. But every time I see this thing, I fall in love with it. Every time I was at my local DAV again, and God said on my way out once again, I was on my way out and I saw this man coming with this rack is some about when they, when you get ready to leave, I always double check to see if anybody's floating out with a new rack because the new racks be hitting so hard because it's, I don't know what that is, but it's almost like when you're leaving, I heard this coat calling my name and this man had this rack and he started walking with. I literally took off running and ran to this man and said, can I stop you and get this coat? I had a baby. All he could do was put his hands up and say, it's all yours. And I grabbed this coat. Y'all let me get this coat. Not everybody as it may not be for everybody, but I have been on the hunt for a coat like this. I literally had a coat like this in my Poshmark cart. The coat on Poshmark was brand new, but it was $179 and I wanted a fur coat so bad. And this one I was about to purchase was a faux fur and the same exact color, a little bit different in the styling, but I almost purchased it. And God said, just wait. And I said, okay, it wasn't, it ain't the season yet. So I'm going to be patient. And honey, let me tell you something about when you just put all your trust, when you just say, okay, Lord, here you go. It never comes back void. It never fails. Let me just hold this for you. Let me just hold that right there and let you soak this in as I did. Yes. Let me turn this thing around. This has to be the most gorgeous. I'm trying to get close so you can really see how expensive. Let me just say how expensive this coat looks and is. This is a Russian fur coat, red fox fur, the whole nine baby. It is a vintage made by Lowenthal. If you want to Google, honey, I have been Googling and just my, the sheer joy of it all. And we have a fur company here in Virginia beach that makes these types of items with Lowenthal. And let me just tell y'all, somebody paid over $6,000 for this jacket. That's what I'm talking about. Yes, I know. That's what I said, because they engraved this coat. There's an engraving in here. There's a pocket on this side here. The pockets are functioning on the outside also. But when I saw this part of this coat, yeah, I knew we was on to something and then I'm going to show y'all how much I paid for it. But when I saw this Christian Dior, somebody donated a $6,000 Christian Dior Russian fur coat to the thrift store. And baby, and I know why I'm going to show you in a second, but I would have found a way. I would have figured it out just like my little self figuring it out because I am going to get this figured out because me and God don't do nothing halfway. I'm going to get this coat fixed. Now they donated it because you can tell either they gain weight and they put this coat on and bust the seam. So there is a ripped seam here, as you can see. Now, first of all, I ain't going to go there, but let's just say, sweetheart, she put this coat on and said, no, that coat said, no, ma'am. Nope, not today and not anymore. You're going to come back better. And then she said, no, we're just going to donate it. And I was, God said, I got somebody who going to figure what you couldn't figure out and have fun with it. I am taking this to a master seamstress. I have been calling, praying, and the Lord sent me a young lady that said, I can fix that coat. Huh? When I say hallelujah, somebody, and I'm going to show you real quick why to me it was worth it. Y'all let me know if you would have purchased this also. I know some people would have been like, like there was a lady in the store. She said, I was going to purchase that coat, but I couldn't find nobody to fix it. Hallelujah. She couldn't find nobody because they was waiting on, the Lord was waiting on me. Now, this coat, I paid $19 with 20% off. I didn't even pay $20 for this jacket, this coat. And do you see the, let me just say the midnight train of it all. When the, when the winter hit, I have never been so excited for the winter. I'm not a winter girl, but this year I will be. And y'all please love me because I'm going to be sick. Y'all going to be sick of me in this coat. I am going to wear this coat to the grocery store. I will be in Walmart. They going to have a, a sighting, a girl. Look, here she go again. Sighting in this coat. Cause I'm going to be in Walmart. I will be in your local Costco's. I will be in a Kroger near you with this coat. Come on somebody. But God, somebody say something with me, but God, y'all know how we get down. But I had to show y'all this. This thing is look at that. Oh, I cannot wait. Y'all. Can y'all see that with some Brown boots? I got to find me. Please tell me where I can find some boots to go with this. Y'all. Oh, I cannot wait. I want some big furry boots to wear with this with some denim. I want to do it. And I love you. And I know y'all going to look out for me. So let me know what you guys think of this. Fine. Was this your favorite piece as it is mine? Look. Oh, look, just look at God. Come on somebody. I ain't got nothing else to show you. Cause that is it. That is all I'm going to get to my favorite part of the video. I wish I could do it with this coat on, but I don't want to tear the seam more, but I really hope you guys enjoyed these pieces as my first video back. Let's get into my favorite part of the video where I get to love on y'all and we'll catch up just a little bit. Let's go. Okay. Y'all. So just really quick. I wanted to be able to show you what this necklace actually looks like on. So I hope you guys can see I doubled it. But you can make it longer, but since I already have one on that is longer, I didn't want it too long. So if you can just picture a lot of different brooches or pins, or you can do one at a time, but I thought this as a layering piece would just go so perfect because if you can see it just fills in that neckline so beautifully. And all I have on is a, just a simple white tee and some overalls, but it kind of dresses the look up just a little bit more. I really hope you guys have enjoyed this first haul back. Um, let me just go ahead and get into the chit chat just in case anybody wants to know I miss y'all. It has been a very, very hard month for me. I have just been, for some reason, um, well, I won't say for some reason I went through a phase where I was trying to eat so healthy that I actually hurt myself. Now, how that is possible. It is, I was eating too much citrus because I was on this whole fruit. I'm going to get my sugars instead of eating junk food. I'm going to get my sugars from all my fruit. And I just kind of went on this really crazy, um, couple of months where I was eating a lot of lemons and a lot of, uh, putting lemons on all of my fruit because I know that the lemon makes the fruit last longer, but did not know that the acidity in all of that fruit, which is the oranges and the pineapples, all the things that I was eating was eating the lining of my stomach. Did not know that that was even possible. So I was overdoing something that I thought was just so healthy. So like the Bible says, everything in moderation, I am learning as I go along because I've always been, uh, once you tell me what I need to do to make me better, that is what I'm going to try to do. So I went on this unhealthy, healthy kick and did not realize that I was harming myself. So if you are eating too much citrus and it ended up giving me something called GERD, um, which is severe acid reflux. And if you've ever been through that or if you are dealing with that, honey, I pray in the name of Jesus for you. Cause I did not know what that was or what it felt like. And it felt like you having a heart attack. It hurts you. It's it can cause it. I mean, I was going through so many different things at different times, but didn't know at the time what it was that was happening. It took them a while to figure out what was happening and why. And just unbeknownst to me, I just over did it. So not telling you not to eat your fruits cause I do still eat fruit, but I was overdoing it. And I know it was because every morning I would show you guys in my videos, what I, before I went to the gym, I would have a little cup just to have a breakfast. I would have a fruit cocktail that I made myself, which consists of pineapples, um, oranges, um, apples, grapes. It had all these wonderful things in it, but already had enough acid. And then I was squeezing lemon juice on it, eating it every day. I was eating some type of fruit cocktail every day thinking that it was so healthy for me and it was, but it was too many things going on at one time. So that is where I have been. And I have just been fighting and gnawing my way back to getting my gut. Cause everything starts in your gut. And for me, when my gut ain't right, don't nothing go right for me. So once that started happening until they figured out, cause they were giving me medicine for other things cause they didn't know what it was. They thought it was this, they thought it was that. And the medicine was making the GERD worse until they figured out what it was. So finally, praise God, somebody put a pin on it and we kind of think we have it pinpointed on what it is. And I've just been reduced to now you have to be careful what you eat with it. So the flare up can go away and your stomach can recode itself. The body will heal itself. And that is the process that I am in and going to different doctors to help me make sure I get back on track and stay on track. But that is kind of where I've been and why I have not been posting, but I have been working here and there and thrifting here and there when I was mentally and physically up to it because I don't know about y'all, but mentally something like that, just this stuff can send you. So I will show you maybe a clip here. I'll stand to the side and I'll try to get a quick little clip. I bought new shelves for this room and kind of moved the TV and I'll just put it right here so you could just see really quick. I left Tatiana the same. We left our girl the same and just puts the shelf shelving going up and then added all of the shelving that I needed on this side. I did a huge purge of my clothes. I got rid of half. When I say half, I mean that I got God just kept saying to me cleanse because he look how he blessing me. Y'all who else gets a six thousand dollar coat like you just have to hear and obey and in order sometime in order to do that, he got to sit you still and he did. So I sat still and all I kept hearing was clean, clear, clean. And so I met a young lady, the same young lady who does my hair. I met her and she literally moved here with a bag of clothes. No ma'am. So I gave her half of my wardrobe and y'all have seen a lot of the stuff that I thrifted. So I literally went through. Have I worn this? Have I need this? Do I need this? And I got literally five bags of clothes and I'm talking garbage bags, them big black garbage bags, two huge garbage bags like that. And then a whole bunch of the regular garbage bag filled with clothes and shoes. And I kind of just wanted to bless her so she would never have to worry about what she wanted, what she had to go and had something to put on. So I got rid of at least 40 to 45 percent of my clothes, if not 50. Because there is nothing. Usually I got stuff. I even got rid of a lot of my Poshmark stuff. I shut my store down for a little while and got rid of most of that stuff because God, there is not nothing. There is nothing on this earth that I have not wanted that I have never received. I always I am always blessed because I'm always trying to be a blessing for God. So I went ahead and did that. And I feel so much lighter. I feel so much better. And in that process, God has just been just he just keep blessing me, y'all. And I'm so grateful that y'all came back just to hear my testimony again. And there's something about my life that God keeps me in a series where I always have a testimony. So I just feel like I continue and will continue to be that hope that no matter what you're going through, because we all going through something, y'all, but please do not give up. Do not give in. And always, always be an advocate for yourself when you in them hospitals and they telling you ain't nothing wrong, but you know, you live in your body, fight for your body, fight for yourself. So when one person say no, go see somebody else. And I will continue to do so until he won't let me no more. I love y'all. I'm so, so grateful that you keep coming back and y'all been checking on me. I will try to sit and read the comments sometime this week. I just been all, when I say all over the place, mentally, physically, spiritually, and I've just been trying to be still and know that he is God because I know he gonna work this out. I may have to get an endoscopy to make sure everything is healing properly, but I'm going to allow God to put that on my heart in the next couple of days to choose whether I'm going to do that or not. I feel so much better. I'm so grateful. Um, and I don't want to put myself in my body through that again cause I've already had one, but whatever God say, that's what we're going to do. And that's what we're going to go by. So keep me in your prayers. Keep me lifted that God continues to bless me and this channel so I can continue to pray and speak life over us and speak life into us. Y'all, I truly appreciate you. I really hope this, this video wasn't too all over the place and I hope you still had a good time. But I truly know that if it's anything I can tell you that God is so real. He is so real and he keeps showing himself. I never felt like he left me through this whole process. I never felt alone. There were many times when I felt like, Lord, I don't know what to do, but you do Lord. So please. And it's every moment he always show where he was. So please talk to God about any and everything you going through wherever you are in your life right now. He is the only, and I say that all the time, but when you go through something, it always reminds you, you see what he brought you through before. Ain't he going to do it again? Don't forget that. So I'm in that same process with y'all. Keep praying. But in your praise, keep praising because something will show up. He always got a ram in the bush, honey. Please. In those moments, all I could do was praise him because I knew it was gone. I knew he was going to work this out for me. So I just want to be a living witness, an example that he going to work it out for you. If you just give him a try, keep trusting in him and know that he is God. I love y'all and I thank y'all for stopping by. Thick chick thrifts. Make sure you leave me a comment. Let's get a little chit chat here and there so I can say hey to y'all because I ain't talked to y'all in a while. Let me know how you been and I will God willing see y'all next week. Y'all please pray for me. I will be mentally and physically up to doing a try on haul because I have some stuff to try on a show y'all that I've been holding on to. So please keep me in your prayers that the energy level is there and I'll see y'all God willing. Like I said next week for that try on haul. I love y'all. Bye.
