Wow it has been a long time since I sat down to blog. I just do not seem to have the time now that I work 5 days a week. After the majority of my 25 years of marriage being a stay at home mom, this has been a HUGE change. Thankfully I do have every other Friday off to play catch up on my house, bills, shopping, etc. And so here I sit playing catch on for my blog.
My mom will be coming in on Monday for a 2 week visit. She wants to get away and enjoy some quiet time. For the most part my house is pretty much silent during the day since no one is home! I am hoping she will come with me a couple of days so we hang out.
We are struggling with where to attend church. I so much need to "belong" somewhere! It has been years since we were really involved in a church community. We have been to a couple of different churches over the last a most year and still do not feel the right fit. Tomorrow we are going to a different one and praying our puzzle piece is a match. It is just so hard living so far away from a church and trying to be involved. I know why they used to have churches in every community.
After the last year dealing with the stress of not knowing if Bob would have a job, we would have a place to live, and watching our son go through some rough times, I am realizing I need to start taking care of me. I need to get plugged into a woman's group at a church and start processing the last year.
We are still praying about how God can use us. We felt lead to Bethany for the refugee program and went through the training and then were put on hold due to Kory's crisis. Not sure if that is the path we are suppose to take or not. Looking for a sign from above. Bob has felt lead to mentor one of the guys at work who is going through the program. I met him yesterday and he shared that Bob has been a major blessing in his life. I am so glad that God is using Bob to bless this young guy.
Well since I started out saying how much I needed to accomplish today I probably should get to it!
