19 September 2010 in UncategorizedAs I sit down to do my blog post with my computer balancing on my knees, you are probably wondering why in the world I wouldn’t just sit at the table. Well, the most unbelieveable weekend has unfolded all around us! I guess you could say that it all started on Saturday morning around 1am when Tom found evidence of a terrible water leak in our basement. By, 6am he woke me to let me know he needed my help in salvaging what we could from a storage closet and the family room in the basement. Not exactly what we had planned, but we are flexible. If we have learned anything in this crazy life of ours, it is to go with whats happening and make the best of it! I’d say that 98% of all that has been damaged is either repairable, replaceable, or restorable! Big Blessing! A house is just a house. Right? Well, I have to admit I really like a clean and tidy one, so it is stretching my ability to adapt, while basically my entire kitchen and dinning room are piled high in the great room. The floors have been torn out and about 20 HUGH fans are blowing a hurricane like wind through the house, with gynormious DE-humidifiers roaring in the background! I think there is only 3 of them! It is so nice to know that there are contractors coming in as soon as Tuesday to start down the road to reconstruction!
I am so excited to see what this week brings. I really have no plans at this point, but I do believe that each day will be filled to the max, with numerous little tasks that need done right now! I always have loved adventure, and I’m 100% sure this week will be filled with it! I have never got to chose flooring before, doesn’t that sound exciting, I think so! An just think, when its all over, you won’t even know that anything ever happened!
Through the fog of everything else that’s happening, I have started into our new material for Ladies Bible Study at our church. The book is titled UPROOTING ANGER. I have never really thought that I had issues in this reguard, until I had a five year old! Upon a lot of reflection, I really think that I have a lot to learn from this book. I truly want to learn what God has in mind for me to learn and apply in my life. If you have nothing else to pray about today, please pray for me in this reguard. BTW, please do not think anything other than I love my five year old with all my heart, we just have some issues at times that I know I could handle a whole lot better!
As the week unfolds I should know more and more definite plans about my kidney transplant. I really am having a very hard time being patient. One more reason for thanking God for the busy week ahead of me!
Blessing to All!

P.S With a HUGH DE-humidifier sucking all the water out of the air, it kinda feels like Colorado in our home today! Tom pointed this out to me today, and we had a good laugh!

Oh that stinks! But you have the best positive attitude. I love that about you! You need to pick up a copy of “Grace Based Parenting.” It has been life-changing for me as a Mom.
Kids, even truly beloved kids, have a way of occasionally bringing out issues that we never knew that we had, don’t they? I checked out, “She’s Gonna Blow!” from the library a couple of weeks ago. I was relieved to discover that my occasional flares were mild compared to most of the examples given, but still they are sins that I want to eradicate.
You have always been my cleanest and tidiest friend. I’m sure that a messy house was torture for you!
