For this weeks assignment I decided to take an idea from a fellow BFS'r.  I'd like a Yea or Nay in a comment if you'd be interested in passing along an idea or you can just email me.  This week I'm using an idea from Sombra at More Little Wilsons

Sombra wrote, "I think it would be interesting to find out if some
of the other ladies have sunk their teeth into something new in the last
year or so, what are they enthralled with, what has claimed the fires of
their passion."  You can post pictures or as many things as you'd love to start doing for YOURself.  I stand corrected but I took it from Sombra's email that she meant OUR OWN passion and not something your children or husband would like you to learn.  Make sure you include a favorite scripture.
I have  a couple of things that I am very passionate about right now.  One I am trying to fix me (with hubby's help) a quiet corner outside with flowers a place to sit and write, read my bible and find quiet time in nature with God,  Second, I have recently started doing scrapbook cardsa and homemade stationary and stuff.  I am having so much fun with it.  I have used some of my homemade items in swapa that I have been participating in over at THL.  Last and I guess this is more than a couple is that I am trying very hard to find my walk with God and who I am and where He wants me to be.  Thanks for letting me share my heart.  All of these things are lreading me to peace within my heart and me.
My verse is:
Colossians 3:15a
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts.....

Ok, this is a tough one for me. You know, this is making me do some soul searching. What AM I passionate about??? I could say homeschooling, but it's nearing the end of the school year which means my tag line "homeschooling with passion and purpose" is losing its fizzle. The excitement will come back around July or August.

I could say my cooking system - what a lifesaver!!!! However, that's something I do because of OTHER people. Were it up to me alone, I probably wouldn't have a kitchen in my house. I'd get a job so I could have enough money to pay someone to cook for me. Hence my blog "Only on Mondays" for tips and short cuts to keep good meals on the table.

My "passion" over eBay - well, let's just say I'm paying out more money in fees than I'm making in sales! Furthermore, it has proven to be a massive time-sucker-upper.

Back to the original matter - I'm really scratching my head on this one and here's my sad conclusion. I am so mentally and emotionally tired and worn out that I'm not passionate about anything right now. I'm just trying to get through the day, the week, the month. I thank God it won't be like this forever. Soon I will begin "blossom." I'll regain my life and rekindle those sparks of interest until they become passions. I have so many things I would love to do, but I just can't think about those things right now. I just want to get through the day...

I know I sound sooooo depressed. I'm not. I'm just burned out big time. I'll be fine in a few weeks.

My scripture is Deuteronomy 33:27a - "The eternal God is thy refuge,..." No matter what, God is my refuge, my shelter, my strength, my everything.

About Me

This is my place to share as I learn to be the Wife and Mom that God wants me to be. I am striving to be a Proverbs 31 wife, a homeschooling Mom that is training my children and grandson in the way God would have them to go. Also a place to share the joys and trials of caring for my Mom now that she can no longer care for herself.
