who wants to catch up?

We have been so busy it is unreal. If my kids played sports or such I think I would crazy. We have all of Jacob's stuff bought for school - supplies and clothes. This is all thanks to my sister...Lib. She did an awesome job. This took alot off of me.

I started a new job. It has been wild. Their paperwork is so totally different than anything I have ever seen, but I am learning. Everybody is helpful witht he exception of a few. We did have the other SW quit...long story. It was an event in the making. I really like my office - it has a bathroom in it!

Jamie is about to start her second semester of her Freshman year. She had a gotten a job at the local grocery store. That did not go well. That is another story. Anyway, Stephen and I have employed her as our "maid." We had to have a re education in what deep cleaning meant, but she is doing great. Jacob has chores of his own. They both get an allowance for their chores. I am very proud of both of them.

Had a wonderful church service Sunday? He asked 10 questions about being a Christian. Some of them I looked at him like he was crazy, but it all made sense in the end. When I get the outline, I plan to post it on here. I had wanted to go to each night of the revival, but work had another plan for me.

I have reconnected with an old friend that I grew up with - Rebecca Bradley. I am sooooo excited. I have missed her over the years, and I am so glad she is back in my life.

That is about all that has happened this week. I plan to have a busy weekend. So I will have another post later. What have you done this week? Love to all....

have you ever....

have you ever just felt lost...i really can't pinpoint why, but i am right now. it makes me very sad. i am not depressed, i love my job, things are good at home for the most part...

i guess i am feeling more unappreciated than anything. i have done some pretty enormous things lately for some people in my family and got not even a thank you. now before you say it, i did not do these things for praise, but is it me or is thank you just common sense....

i feel detached from something and i am not going to mention what it is...i will tell you it is NOT God...because without HIM i would be at the bar drunk....:) i am missing some friends that live far away...i want to book a hotel room, wiggle my nose and they all be there....i feel like no one ever calls me...i have to call them to chat and then i feel like i am interrupting their day...am i being obnoxious and pms - ing even though i don't do that anymore...

i am seriously just lost...why can't it be like it used to be...
