It's Friday, again - lucky you!


Blogging on Friday's must be a running theme for me. Lucky YOU - it's Friday ;)!

This week has been an adjustment for Trenton. He seems to always have a hard time getting back into the swing of things at the beginning of every school year. I wonder if it's just a boy thing or is it a personality thing? He is just so depressed - for a better lack of words - that he cant come and go as he pleases anymore in the afternoons and I can be so impatient with him. I gave him my "that's life speech and the quicker you except it the quicker you'll get over it" and for the moment he has seem to accept it. I thought girls were suppose to be the hard ones???

I was suppose to go eat lunch with a friend yesterday but she had something come up and I ended up going to my Maw maw's. I love to be with her. The best part was the Lord let me tell her a testimony of some one's. I felt the Lord as I was telling it- You know how I cry when I feel the Lord? I looked up at her and she was wiping tears away from underneath her glasses. (Makes me tear up just writing this) I just can't wait till the Lord works out her life for her!
We went and got Captain D's and split a dinner and then another friend called and said she was coming to Arab and wanted to meet for a late lunch. So I go home to wait on her and another Sister knocks on my door with some okra from her garden. Needless to say I felt blessed. I was just telling Kevin how our whole point to moving was to get closer to the church and to get closer to his children. I think our intentions on moving were right and good but obviously it wasn't the Lords will (right now) for us cause our house didn't/hasn't sold. And I of all people know if the Lord wants your house to sell - he can sell it!
I was telling Kevin that I felt like the Lord still wants us here for now and yesterday day just reminded me of all the good reasons he may want us here for the time being. I trust the Lord. He has always done us right. Lord knows, I don't want to move and end up feeling like I have done the wrong thing down the road so Ive decided to be content with being in Arab for the time being.

This week Brian and Kevin have been going over where our house (that we have decided to build in the meantime) is going to be. How it's going to sit and all that good stuff. Don't get me wrong I love the thoughts of having a new house but I'm not someone who enjoys picking out anything! I can tell you if your walls, counter tops, cabinets, hardware, light fixtures and all that other junk looks good and matches but I'd rather have a root canal then be the one picking anything out! It's so stressful! Nothing looks the same in the stores as it dose in your house!!! So I'm taking volunteers on choosing everything for our new house. Seriously! Brian is very good at that but his taste and my budget don't mix! lol I'll end up with the 1,500 sq. ft Tashmahal with him! lol Here is a picture of our future home. Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!
