We've had a good week. It's been busy, but things have gone well. Bible study was different this week. None of the other ladies showed up (there's usually about 5 or 6 of us). So since it was just the host and me, she decided to just have a fellowship time instead. It was great. We just talked and got to know each other for a couple of hours. It was truly a blessing and a great night. When I got home, I found out our nephew had come by and hung out with Paul and the kids. They had a great time.
And that brings up a sad event, our nephew is moving back home to his mom's house. Right now he lives only 5 minutes from us and comes over a lot to play video games with the kids and hang out with us. But for the things he wants to do and cost wise, it is cheaper for him to move back home. Which means he'll now be over an hour away from us. We will miss him greatly, and before he goes he is going to come over a bit more, so that will be nice. And it's not like we won't see him again, it's just missing the evenings he comes over to just hang with us.
Paul was home from work yesterday, that was fun and a blessing. Having the OT money would have been nice, but since his work has said no to OT, we were blessed with him being home. He also had gotten some extra money from work for some mileage compensation, and he gave it to me for my birthday to spend freely. It was very hard for me to spend it on me, since we have bills and such, but he insisted. So we went birthday shopping yesterday, that was a lot of fun. It was just great having him home.
Today has been pretty mellow. Paul had some yard work, some craft things I have to do, things like that. Thanks for praying last week for my unmentioned prayer request. I do have an answer, which isn't exactly what I wanted, but the Lord is faithful and showing me some other things He has for me. It's been an emotional few weeks, but the Lord has been with me through it all. And in all of that, there are a few more things I'm doing right now, and will continue to be absent from blogland off and on. Someday, when things are more 'set', I'll blog in more detail what's going on with me. But for now, I'm off to enjoy my day. I hope you are having a great weekend.
Glad to hear you've had a good week. When was your birthday? Did I miss it? Happy birthday to you! And, about the photography assignment, I was taken back at having to take 8 pictures myself! You could go back through some pictures you have already taken that fit the assignment. I was going to do that until I was fortunate to go somewhere to take photos. It was hard, but I enjoyed learning. I am frustrated with my camera. I am thinking of doing the assignments for myself and not linking a post.
Have a wonderful Sunday. I am sorry to hear your nephew is moving.

Did I miss your birthday????? I didn't think was here yet.
I am so busy with e-bay, but I am making goof money for the books. No decisions yet, on the math curriculum.
So happy you received a little extra for something special, you deserve it.
((((hugs)))

This blog is so I can share my journey with the Lord, my journey as a wife and mother, and my journey as a homeschool mom. I pray that you will see the Lord in my life through happy and sad times, and that this blog glorifies the Lord.
This is an award and tag free zone, thank you.
We will miss him greatly, and before he goes he is going to come over a bit more, so that will be nice. And it's not like we won't see him again, it's just missing the evenings he comes over to just hang with us.
