Feeling better this week!

Definitely having a better outlook on life this week. I don't really know what has changed but not feeling the heaviness I did last week. I guess we can't always be happy all the time but I also hate not being able to rejoice in all situations. I guess like the song says about God "You are good!".

It's Saturday here & not much on the agenda. I was hoping to be watching the Wolfpack play in the volleyball championship but they ended up losing last night! Bummer! They again had a great season & we look forward to them playing again next year! Now on to basketball season!

Hope you all have a great Saturday & enjoy the wonderful day!

In a funk

Don't really know what's causing it but this week has been hard. I don't know if it's the after moving blues or the weather or something else entirely. I have no energy to do anything this week & my house is starting to show it. I have also been extremely tired & can't seem to get enough sleep. I'm hoping to find the source of this attitude so that I can change it & soon! Doesn't help that the hubby has been gone for a couple days after being home for over a week. I kinda like him being around! Or it could be the fact that for the second time, the potential buyer for our lot backed out. We are so happy in our new(to us) house & would just love to get that sold so that we can just move on with living. I guess "waiting" is just a part of life, huh? The old saying "hurry up & wait" I guess applies here too! I'm hoping that maybe I just need to find time to dig into God's Word for some refreshment & purpose to get out of this dreariness! Else I guess going to buy a bag of Reeses Peanut Butter Cups with just have to work!! hehe!

Post #2

I promise not to go ahead & number all of my posts. Starting a blog is a lot harder than I thought it would. I think this will get easier the more I do this but knowing where/how to start is another thing. There is a real reason why I wanted to start this blog but those details are getting worked out & I hope that I can write about that soon.

I've been told that journaling & writing things out can theraputic so I guess that is part of the reason for this. Let's face it! I am a mother of 4-Alexa is 14, Emma is 9, Wyatt is 6 and Jackson is 2! I am also a wife to my husband, Brian, for 10 years. Life can be nuts & getting a few minutes to even think is a task! I absolutely LOVE being a mom & wife but it does come with it's challenges. I know this is the plan that God had for my life & I try to take His calling very seriously. We also lost an infant son, Dawson, when he was 2 weeks old after complications following a life saving surgery. He was born June 25, 2006 and went to be with Jesus on July 10, 2006. Still is hard to believe that it's been over 3 years since we've held him in our arms. I will write more about that as this blog goes on because my son played a very vital role in who I am today. It's amazing how God can weave certain joys & sorrows in your life to work for the good of those who love Him.

As for now, I thought a quick introduction was in order & I look forward to getting more down in writing!! Thanks for reading!
