In and ... "settled" ???
|
Good Morning! I figured for my regular readers I should update you. We're into our new place, praying it is only temporary. I'm suffering from severe pride issues as of late - so you can imagine amidst the boxes and chaos of moving and having to have and ask for so much help - it just isn't pretty. I miss my independence so much!!!! I can only now begin to imagine how our elderly feel when they are taken out of their life long homes and placed into facilities. Ugh!!!! Also, I hate it when we've worked so hard to play by the rules and those around us are so obviously, are NOT! I'm praying for huge, and unimaginable blessings on this one. We have much to be grateful for and yet the things that loom large in my site are the things I'm struggling with and through, especially with and for MattMann. Lizbeth has moved so many times, that she seems to be taking it all in stride. On a very positive note, I think we've found the church we'll be attending. We've visited it several times, but both of the kids are excited about Sunday School and the worship service is family integrated and it's a well established church with heirarchy and accountability. We miss our friends so much! We miss the space of our big house and yard! At the same time, there is no doubt in my mind that we are where the Lord would have us to be for this season in our lives. We are very close to many members of our extended family for the first time in many, many years. The walk from our place to the little store, library and post office, is just amazing. The kids already have their library cards - that was a first priority. We're still amidst boxes! But we're back to doing our school work and I'm hoping next week to get back to work quilting. I'll be posting more about that in the next post. Check in, leave a comment, and let me know how things are with you. Blessings, MaggieRaye |
