Writer's Block

Posted in Daydreaming
    I have a case of writer's block.  I notice that I get this way every so often, especially when things are not too exciting and there is not too much good or funny to report.  It stopped me from blogging completely a while back for a long time, so I am just making myself write a post on both my blogs simply so I won't go day after day with no blogging.
    Let's see.... I guess I will tell you ten things that have been going on with me lately, even if they are not at all exciting:
1.  Still no job, my Gilbert has had a couple interviews but no offers.  He is working a full schedule delivering pizza and hopes that his former employer will open up his old job soon now that it has changed departments and that he can go back.  There were aspects of the job that he really liked, and the changes will eliminate a lot of the negatives for him.  The other great thing about him going back would be that they have incredibly wonderful benefits.  I would appreciate prayer! 
2.  I am growing in the area of trusting God.  Even though we have no conclusive answers on the job front and our financial survival continues to be day to day, the Lord is taking care of us and I am finally to the point where I have "gotten it" that I am not in control and that it is fine, that God is in control and He loves me and is working for my good even though I cannot see it.
3.  I have been cleaning like a madwoman and I still can't really tell, unless you count the kids' rooms, which are remarkably changed.
4.  My van is feeling a little weird at times to drive and could use prayer, because there is no funding for fixing if it breaks.
5.  I can't even think of anything beyond those four!  Isn't that sad?
6.  Oh, yeah... my mom had a terrible knee pain and I spent all day with her Monday getting her fixed up, which after a very ouchy fluid aspiration and cortisone shot, I think she is (or will be after a couple days).
7.  I am finding myself thinking a lot about how thankful I am for the wonderful friends God has blessed me with.  I have so many dear, dear friends who love me and I truly love them.
8.  My friend Amy blessed me with a day at the homeschool convention here, and it was SO great to get out of the house and be immersed in the homeschool community for a little while!
9.  Because I was blessed with a trip to the homeschool convention, I got to see a lot of friends I haven't connected with in a while, which was great!  I also got some awesome hang time with Angela, which was just supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
10.  For the family update, come on over to my other blog, www.homeschoolblogger.com/MrsIncredible!

I will pray. And even though you claim to have writer's block, you came up with a very good list! It's encouraging to me to read about your struggles and how you are trusting the Lord to provide.

I was just thinking about how much fun I had sharing the day with you. I'm so glad we had that, we have so many of the same hsing passions! I'm still praying my friend. Love you lots!
