New Beginnings

I love the new year, a fresh slate, a new beginning.  Mine is beginning with the prospect of finding a new place to dwell, seeking the Lord for what His will is for our family, lots of new beginnings are in store. 

Funny, this morning was my new beginning as a stay-at-home-mom, again...and the first thing that happened was the doorbell rang and I was asked NOT to stay at home, but to reconsider and keep my job .  I tried to be very kind to the deacon who so sweetly asked me to say, he is not in good health and I don't want to cause his heart any more stress than it is already under, so I assured him that I would speak to my husband about it; but I really, really, don't think that is going to happen .   I find it quite odd that my husband was told that we "don't fit in" and "a group" met and decided that "something must be done about us"; yet, they want me to continue to be their church secretary......... Am I the only one who finds this odd???  What are they thinking??? 

I am excited about a new home... I just enjoy starting over and getting things all set up in a new place, I guess.  We are praying about where to move, and I've been assured that we will have help finding a new place... I am praying that even if we have to rent a home, that we can purchase at least a little bit of land to garden on, and hopefully one day live on.  RV living is even a thought at this point...

I'm going to make a cup of tea, sit on the porch and see what else this day has in store for me...  Never a dull moment around the Love household.

Around here NORMAL is just a setting on the dryer !

Blessings,

Catherine

I love it, Normal **** the dryer, LOL LOL too cute. It does amaze me how some people in churches always feel as tho they are better than some others. HELLO I wonder what their definiton of "church" is. Well I wish you luck with everything and make the most of your "stay at home" time with your children. May the new year bring you everything you need and want.........Kitty
