It has been a crazy few weeks here in my home. We have taken our children out of the public form of education. WE had a huge sewer issue, plumbers and the city ended up getting involved, and looks like the gas company may have to pay for all the work done, as they put a hole in the city sewer line for the gas line!
We have had dinners at church members homes, I have started walking every Wednesday night with a friend, made a boy scout derby car and spent some time strengthening our family. Joe and I have received new callings in the church as well! I now co teach the 5 yr old class..on the first day the most energetic boy sat with me and listened.. they all had hugs for me when It was time to go home. what a great feeling. Joe is going to be Scout leader.. Tx is very excited to have Joe in charge and I know it will be a great bonding activity for them..
My daughter and I had some " adventures in Hair Dye" it was bright Gold, then Orange and now finally more like a copper color! it was fun and I am glad we settled on a color I could let her live with..The boys and I have been baking! yes I let my 4 and 9 yr olds loose in the kitchen! they are becoming pros at Banana bread and Brownies... Not the healthiest but they enjoy it and are learning all about measuring and fractions....
We also have decided to try transitioning to a gluten free diet, and adding more grains to our diet... It is a world of change at our home!
As for me... well I have been a bit depressed or freaked out or something... I have been doing a lot of the driving lately, and I think the underlying fears from my past are bugging me big time.. I am considering trying a new kind of therapy, something I have never tried before..but have read tons of great reviews about.. I know several people who have tried or are using this system.. I prayed about it and as soon as I am feeling up to the drive I am doing it.. More on that later.
Joe is doing wonderful at his JOB!! In fact he is now going to be trained for a new position and that will mean a better pay. More money will help up catch up with everything, and hopefully enable us to get moved soon, as the place we are in is NOT the place for us.. however we are STILL thankful to be where we are..
I am not able to express enough how grateful I am that we landed in a safe place, and that their was a house available for us and that the home owner let us in with out question, even the pets... the Lord Did indeed need us here! And I am so thankful that we had Faith enough to Listen when he said for us to go..
Until next time.... May the LORD Bless you...
