I'm sitting here at my computer wondering just what to do. There are so many options that I just can't make up my mind. Ever have one of those days? Or maybe more than one of those days? Should I work or should I play? Stick with the job I have or get a new one? Fix the home that you live in up or look for a new one? There are only a few things that I am not wondering about. I know I love the Lord and want to do His will. I know without a shadow of a doubt that I love my husband and my kids. I know I am so looking forward to spending a week with my daughter and her family. And I know that I love my life! So some things are obviously non-negotiable. But....lots of other things are!!!
We have been looking at modular homes and checking out prices and such. But it always comes back to the fact that we like where we are located and it would be much cheaper to fix what we have and then later maybe add a shop for James. We have plenty of room to do it and this house is nice, just needs some updating!!! So I guess maybe that question is resolving itself. Work or Play well obviously I am playing for the time being! I really do enjoy blogging just don't always have the time. Oh yes the job...I am currently babysitting a little girl a couple days a week, (when I actually get her) from 5:30am till 7 pm. Her mom is a nurse and only works three shifts a week, but lately it hasn't even been that much. I'm also suppose to start sitting two more girls full time but not sure when that is going to happen. In the mean time I am needing something to earn a little extra. Not sure what to do. CM just helps me pay for my hobby, and I am not into being a committed sales person that way so that won't help. So what to do!!! I've thought about giving up on the sitting and getting a job outside the home but then I would miss so much with Jeremiah. I guess I just need to be content in my circumstances! (Hmm now who in the Bible tells us that!!) If the Lord has something different for me then He will have to show me what to do.
Okay now that I have done my ranting and raving!! I will get on to other things.
I am so excited! Next Wednesday, I leave to go see Tawny and her family. My mom, Jeremiah and I will be there over Mother's Day and Tawny has planned a special day for all of us. We get to stay for a week and I am so looking forward to it. I haven't seen her since January. ( I know "boohoo" it could be a whole lot longer!!) But anyway with her being pregnant it will be fun to see how big she is getting and also Aidyn is walking now and that will be fun. She and Evan bought a new house in February, so she has been excited to show us that too. It should just be a really fun time.
I guess that about catches you up on what is going on in my life. I'm also into getting the yard looking spiffy. I love Spring and Summer. Winter can get me down but when it warms up and turns green and beautiful outside, I just can't wait to get out there and get things done. Too windy today though. Might blow me all the way to Florida or something. Wouldn't that be a trip!! (One I would dearly love to make) Well I better get my self in gear again! You know how it goes "Busy, Busy, Busy!!"

I struggle with the same desires. I am truly content where I am and with what I have, but I dream of a new (at least to us) and larger house and other things. I think that's just the human part of us. As long as we are seeking Him and Thanking Him for what we have, I think He understands our human dreams.
Have fun on your trip!
