frustrated

What do you do when everything falls apart at once. How much can one person stand before nervous breakdown comes into your vocabulary? Before you're just numb.

Yes, I have so much to be thankful for, and yes, I'm trying to focus on those things. But, everytime I feel like I have some sort of "grip" on things...something else happens. Somethings...like the financial stuff...I'm sure you don't want to hear about. (I don't, LOL)

Any suggestions on coping (without falling apart) I would appreciate. And yes, I pray...multiple times a day...perhaps I'm doing it wrong though. Suggestions?

Busy

Busy week last week.. So much to do. Found a great family for one of our doggies...very hard to let him go..need to let another one go. Might need a couple days to think about that..

Had appointments this week..another shot for Danny. He's doing good, his attitude could not be better. He inspires me. A little bit of sore throat Friday night..makes us nervous..took lots of vitamin C this weekend, chicken soup and didn't go out at all. Feels fine..no sore throat. Yay.

I had baby appointment..everything fine..had the most amazing midwife. She talked to me about everything going on for a hour..(I'm sure she had better things to do) but, it meant so much to me and made me feel better.

Suppose I need to write on my blog when I'm not in a hurry...but, so hard to focus on much of anything lately...so I just write as fast as I can...yes, I'm sure you're surprised.

Listening to MacKenzie playing last night and this morning..with her Littlest Pets..about one of them being pregnant..no money..food..and taking care of Daddy so he doesn't catch a cold...ummmmm...think I'll keep an eye on this.. LOL. The kids are doing good though. We always talk about everything so they ask questions whenever they want or think of them.

Very thankful this week for Danny and the kids..for baby on the way..SOON..for the amazing pumpkin, chocolate pancakes Danny made Sunday morning. Thankful that Danny is feeling good and didn't get a cold. Thankful everytime..(which is often) that the kids laugh. For their good attitudes and hearts.

Thank you again for your continued prayers and messages through email and fb. :-)

Starting homeschool

Well, we started homeschool early this week..mostly so we can take off when needed. Nice to know. Filled out papers and applications this week for my 15 year old to go to college! Good start..my 5th grader hasn't forgotten to much over the summer. We are big readers anyway.

Hard not to think about "things"...it crept into my dreams this morning. Not appreciated! Gotta boot that out. So very thankful for the friends and family that have emailed or posted thoughts and prayers coming our way.

Part of thankfulness is not complaining... so, I am so thankful for my husband..his attitude and faithfulness. So thankful for my kids who are much better people than I am. Thankful for our friends, for our family, for our church. Thankful, today I go grocery shopping! Thankful it's a gorgeous sunny day out. Thankful for the baby kicking me right now. (perhaps, some light at the end of the tunnel)
