Prayer Me Peeps

As I sit here watching Max, the Vizsla who stole my heart, clean his boy parts for the 70th time today.... I realize that this time tomorrow he and Dave will be gone. Back on the road to North Dakota and the oil field. We are so blessed to have a situation where Dave and Max can come home one week a month but it's hard to not get greedy. Urgh. Now that we are really settling into life here at the Lake, I'm turning my eye to job hunting. Lift me in prayers please... I would really like to have a position somewhere God wants me to be....

By the Rules

We spent the holiday chilling and spending family time.... along with some family games. Andddd no body wants to play with me... Apparently I'm a difficult person when it comes to games. I adhere to the rules and I enforce the rules... as well as require those playing to do so as well. Does that make me wrong? Apparently it does. No body likes it when you won't let them deviate from the rules of Scrabble... is there a happy medium between being right and being popular... I really don't think it is. Is that a personality flaw....? I am flawed because I have a compulsion to adhere to the rules? Food...

The juggle

Homeschooling is def not for the faint of heart. While I'm prepping for resume and applying for jobs, I'm also working to continue prepping Madz for finishing her junior year. She's almost done with American History and it is cool to see her kick it's butt. Now we are pausing to jump into to Kill a Mockingbird for the holiday season... After that we will get back knee deep into chemistry. I'm lucky because she has an amazing homeschool curriculum online that really makes it easy for me to watch and supervise rather than led the process of teaching her. I am adding a writing program because I think...

Dang Saturday, you rocked

My man got him a sweet one in Montana today. Hello jerky!!!The girls and I spent time attempting to get a handle on the leaves. Fall has fallen... All up in my yard. Molded pumpkins don't burn so well and this poorly made fire pit that previous owners built is useless lol. Time to raze it and put in a big ole swing. After hours spent chasing us around the yard, my little man was wore out... Foot surgery next month looks like I get my Myrphy man back and Max will go on the road with...

Scared but Praying

We just submitted the application for my oldest to attend her first full fledged missions trip. To South America... this summer. Without us. She'll be spreading her wings and flying. She will be supervised by a very capable church team that does missions all over the world.... but she's my baby. I just feel so strongly that I need to help her achieve her goal of serving. She has wanted to do missions for some time now and each time, we find some reason to say no. This time, we are saying yes. It might not work out... but her application is in and I'm walking on faith. I'll not stand in the way...
