Does anyone else have a certain month, or time of year, when it seems life just wants to screw with you? September - October are usually those months, and boy let me tell you: this year has been rough on us.
Broken glasses, paychecks were short, bills were shuffled around, the dogs chewed up the hallway wall, the truck broke down, it's getting cooler and we still don't have a clothes dryer....
And most of that was just this week.
But it's okay. It's okay because I know we will be taken care of. We have always been blessed.. even on those days when we've got a quarter tank of gas and four days until payday. Even on those days when everything is breaking, and tempers are running high. Even on those days when it feels like the hours upon hours upon hours of working will never pay off.. it always does.
I've felt awful today with a sinus cold and my chronic tummy issues. I can't concentrate to save my life, but I'm pushing through today. I came back to my weekly blog with no idea what to write. I didn't even feel like writing. I just wanted to sit at my desk and stare off into space, to be quite honest.
I know I'm just rambling at this point, but I just want to say that if anyone else has weeks or months like this:
#1 You are not alone.
#2 If you are a faithful person, keep praying. We may not attend church as often anymore due to schedules, but we pray. I pray daily, and not just before bed. Through the anxiety attacks, through the stress, through the days when there's no money. But also on the days that go perfectly right. On the sunny days, when everyone is smiling, and we can afford to randomly go out to dinner or buy toys for the kiddos. I pray. I thank God everyday, good or bad, for the opportunity to experience today.
End of rant.
I'll be back with better material next week, when my brain is processing information again.
Always Keep Adventuring
