Sometimes we just need to get it all out of our system...
battery went dead....on an old country road..thank God for kind strangers...:p
washing machine broke down...had to buy another one...after looking at too many places...:confused:
6 events to go to this weekend alone..and we are only one family...:confused:
sick of last minute notifications...from family or ministering...:( :eek:
garage sales for the youth....need I say more...argh...hate garage sales...:rolleyes:
drove to Dallas in the middle of the night...with a bad shoulder..and have to minister Sun morn in Denton...38.5 miles away...didn't want too...
On top of that my daughters paper work for what school she is to attend got lost...hello...I just filled it out in the office and hand delivered it and they still lost it...God please have mercy...:rolleyes:
My family came in for a flying trip from Houston and we were headed to Cleveland...canceled Cleveland so we could go to LA and visit a lil while and still didn't get to see family...miscommunication ...on too many accounts...so frustrated...:rolleyes: :confused: :( I cried most of the day today)...disappointed in myself and others...
and I still need to get back packs and tennis shoes for the kids along with an eye exam and contacts and on top of that....
My son was cleaning up the yard...and stepped on a nail that his lil sister had left sticking up in a board..... she was supposedly building a doll house....
probably should have put this in the prayer request...cause I sure could use alot of it...
if I weren't so tired i may be able to fall alseep if it wasn't for these hot flashes...we need a smiley with sweat dripping off of it...
If nothing else good comes from all this...(Romans 8:28)...maybe this is a place where we can all come and unload and know that others care and have been there and done that...
you guys always make me feel better about things...and just knowing I have a place to talk to folks that actually care and don't put me down for not being perfect...(minister's wife syndrome) means alot..
love to you all...thanks for letting me vent...please remember me in your prayers...

Thank you ALL for the kind words and the prayers...
It has been a couple of rough weeks and looks like this one is going to be a doosey as well.....
We have also been traveling alot and ministering as well as all of the other stuff I mentioned and there was alot I did not mention because...I felt I had already just went over board...
Needless to say, after alot, and I mean alot (close to 5 hours) of prayer and worship today I am feeling alot better...Praise the Lord...for he is good...
all the time...
I guess sometimes as a mother, wife, minister's wife and asst. pastor's wife and evangelists wife and chaufeur, maid, and you guys get the jest...
All the hats that we wear from day to day...
I was on overload...it is hard to please everyone and we all know that never really happens...and then we forget to take time for ourselves...
The Lord really blessed at the church in Denton where we ministered in music today...and so many people received prayer...it was absolutely awesome...around 115 or more...and this is considered a small church...they usually run 20-25...
God is still in the healing and delivering and loving and saving and miracle business...and he is still seated on the throne of mercy...
It is sometimes hard for me not to get overwhelmed...I had been praying for a particular request and now that school is upon us and that prayer had not been answered I really got a lil depressed and frustrated and discouraged..
It is truly a blessing to be able to come here amd post and know that others have made it through some of the same things with the help of the Lord and that if we will not get weary in well doing....and not faint we will reap in due time...
God bless each of you precious ladies...
Thank you from the bottom of my heart...

Okay my turn to vent today:
Have had a lousy day at work, sick of working in an industry who's policy states what they want people to believe but do not actually believe or follow. Sick of working in an industry where the mighty dollar is the deciding factor in everything. Sick or me or my fellow work mates not being appreciated for what we do, or how well we do it.
And besides that, sick of having to come home and vent to all of you instead of some poor innocent husband who by now, I should have and then, I wouldn't need to be venting (well not on this topic anyway) because I wouldn't be going to work each day because I wouldn't have to be paying off the mortgage on my own along with EVERYTHING ELSE on my own, I would be at home raising our sweet babies.
Well, there, that does feel a bit better, pray for me anyway please!!:(

Hope tommorow is easier... sounds like a very tough day and that you are totally aggravated with it all....I will lift you up in prayer....Try not to feel too discouraged....you have a job, your health, a home, and things could be alot worse....Thank God they are not.....and feel free to vent here any time...sometimes just getting it all off our chest helps!!!!
Today for some reason I broke out with I guess a rash or the shingles all along my right collar bone and towards the top of my shoulder and up on my neck and under my right ear and on my right jaw bone...probably just stress...
and when we got home late...last night....we walked into a vERY HOT HOUSE...like an oven....it was 92 degrees....
Needless to say....the dogs had dug a hole near the air compressor? on the A/C and broke an electrical wire...we had to do repair work with my hubby on the phone teaching us at 1:00 a.m. and it took forever to cool the house down and then by the time I finally fell asleep it was time to get the children up for school....
We are all so tired...but I thank God it wasn't really bad and we were able to fix it and get the air going again quickly....
God Bless

Yes today was easier, and now I feel stupid and selfish for carrying on yesterday, but I am only human and sometimes life in general just gets on top of me - I know I have my job and my health and a lovely house which I renovated fairly well on my own I might add, and friends and family who love me and for these things I am truely greatful. I just get tired of being alone is all.

HAHAHAhhhaaa this is so typical....
I worked my butt off yesterday so that I could take the day off and my family and I could go to the shore today... all day.. hit the boardwalk.. lots of fun...
My family decided to ditch the idea and go someday next week.
I might go myself anyway. I do have the day off.

Well... by 2:30pm.. we were sittin on the beach. Ocean City, 82 degrees, light breeze from the ocean... Ahh... The family decided to go to the beach anyway. The kids were near the water making a sand castle..my wife was lying on a towel, reading a book and I was in a beach chair, just dozing off.... at about 3pm...this little girl (her family was behind us...) came from the water, was hollering to her mother and as she was passing us, just happened to barf about 5 foot away from us... I calmly looked over at my wife... and said....'you ready to go'?
The rest of the day was great!

ROTFLOL
Are you serious??????????
Hope you guys moved away from the uuuggghhh....
Glad the family went...sounds wonderful...we didn't get to make it to the beach this summer...
My brother has a 40 ft. yacht in Destin, Florida and also he is the Captain of the Daniel Webster....it's gorgeous...
we had a blast last summer....I got a little dissy headed after about 3 hours on the Gulf on his 40 footer....was so glad to get back on shore...I didn't do as bad as the lil girl...but they said I turned a lil green...
I will never make a fisherman...or firstmate...the waves on the ocean just throw you around too much for me...
God Bless

I definitely know how you feel. I know I should wait on the Lord to bring me who He wants me to be with, but after 28 years, you sometimes lose patience. With the many great blessings God has given me, it's quite selfish to complain at all. But lonelyness is sometimes hard to deal with.
