Slacking and a request for prayers
I can't believe it has been a whole week since my last post! Seriously, guys, time is flying around here! I am trying to adjust to my new job and I have to admit it hasn't been easy.
Now, that's not to say that I don't like it, because I really do but there is so much to learn and I haven't worked in over four years. Needless to say, my body and mind are having to adjust. My house cleaning has certainly taken a back seat. It has never been this messy!! However, I am doing a good job of being more present and in the moment with my kids while I am at home. So, housework can wait, as far as I am concerned. :) I only work part time, so I don't know how you moms do it that work full time outside of the home as well. I give you props!
Added on to all the day to day stresses is the fact that I am leaving for Vegas in less than a week...get home late Thursday night have wedding stuff to do Friday and then the actual wedding Saturday and Kendra's party on Sunday. Phew.... I am tired already. On a good note, we decided to do a sweets shop theme for Kendra's party and I found some really great stuff today at the dollar store! Can not wait!
On a more somber note..... more prayers and/or positive thoughts are needed for my friend I spoke of in my last post. Things have taken a turn for the worse; her health is failing rapidly and her cancer is spreading. The doctors believe that recovery is not an option at this point. :( I am still holding out hope for a miracle but the outlook does not look good. I just ask that you keep them in your thoughts.
