endurance...
not what I'm having an abundance of right now...
but what I need prayers for!
I will start with saying I am completely and utterly blessed beyond measure in life and really have no right to complain at all...
But... I need to do a little bit of therapuetic whining... and ask for prayers for our home.
The last 5 weeks have been a bit rough. Nothing at all in comparison to what some folks are struggling through, but I'm running low on gas, and need to see my refill coming soon. Every night I've been telling myself... tomorrow will be end of this craziness ... I'm sure of it! So please pray that for us.
In just the last few weeks we've had water damage, a hot water heater died, our dryer died, many life transitions, some behavioral issues, two unmentionable medical issues that I will keep vague for the sake of one of the kids privacy, all vehicles have some sort of issue, simon's pneumonia, dan with bronchitis, shea's hip surgery is monday, I did not get the promotion I applied for, simon has found his "wandering gene" and has made some escapes on us, and just today shea and danielle decided strep throat would be fun! Phew, that run on fragmented sentence makes me out of breath just reading it.
I apologize for this bummer of a post, I have no witty or creative stories to put on paper, not because they aren't happening... but because I'm just too tired to focus my brain that way right now :)
I would really appreciate your prayers for our house to hit that "upswing" really soon, and for now I'm going to go to bed at 8:30, and tell myself "tomorrow will be the end of this craziness"!
Thanks friends...counting my blessings, and knowing this really is all "small stuff", but appreciating your prayers
