I was thinking about what I was going to post about.
Funny how things change. We have our ideas and then something changes. So, we change. Which means our desires change, sometimes, too. Maybe they change to align more to where God want us, maybe we're just INSANE! Change=sacrifice. At least for me that's true.
We get to keep looking for another rental. Get to. Tired of it already. Ben was so sweet last night. He asked what he could do for me to make my night easier (He is the best hubby on earth, you shouldn't be surprised he asked that!) and I told him to run and get a bucket for my tears. I was wondering what happened to my appearance yesterday. Change messed me all up. It feels like I'm in a Twilight Zone episode. The one where the mother finds out she's a robot and keeps enduring the same crap every day, all her life, there is no end (do-do-do-do, can you hear the music?).....no wait.....that's not an episode.....it's my life! Kidding, sort of. =D
Why is it that when we loose weight we broadcast it to the heavens yet when we gain we don't even whisper it to ourselves? How can one feel so close to the God and yet so far away simultaneously? Why do I forget I live in Oregon, then remember again when it rains? Why do we appreciate things more only when we realize they are no longer? Can people really sneeze without closing their eyes? Is heaven that far away? Will things ever get better? Will we stay in one house more that half a decade?
Things I learned yesterday: I've gained back some weight I lost. Don't wait for that terrible move to turn around.....it'll probably end just as terribly. I felt like a slop bucket when I yelled at my youngest Son. I cannot eat whatever I want, whenever I want and be the weight I want (novel, I know). I MUST work very hard during this time to have a good attitude.
We're going to look at another place this morning. Maybe this one will be The One.

It's your focus that counts, and keeps things level during the ups and downs. His lovely face, puts it all into perspective. You will walk thru it all with Him, and I will cheer you on! Love you much, Mom : )
Hey blogger friend. I was having a not so fun afternoon, kids' not listening, someone called for some idea's then shot them all down, thinking of trying to tell the boys their friend is dying. To young... UGH. I was so frestrated. Then I read your blog. Sometimes there is comfort in knowing that others are just as frestrated as you.
A good attitude! Praying that for you and me!
Oh Katy... I feel like I could have written your post. That is so me. It's just a constant emotional roller coaster. This has become one of my favorite quotes lately: "Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning to dance in the rain." In OREGON. ;)
Hang in there girl! I'm praying for you!
Hugs!
Yes, you can sneeze with your eyes open but you have to hold them open. I saw it on Mythbusters.
I am emailing a hug and a starbucks and a warm blanket. Love you much.
