Great Weekend

As I sit down to type this, I think back on this week. It has been excellent. Nick and I have house sat this week and its been so great. It's like we're finally living together. He's asleep upstairs and I'm waiting for a load in the washer to finish so I can put it in the dryer. This is the life I've always wanted, except I would like a ring on my finger and a marriage license in the file cabnet to make things right with the Man Upstairs. But truthfully, my life is perfect - Although we're missing one "barking" aspect of our lives, that I hope to be filled by February. Things are well and I am grateful to God for this opportunity. I recently tithed quite a large amount of money and since then, He's really taken care of my finances. I trust in Him and believe that allHe has in mind for me is the right way.

I'm thankful for my mommy:

Today my mom and I got up at 3:15, left the house at 3:45, drove to Kohls and then Target. This is something that my mom and I have done for years and I hope we continue this tradition for many years to come. It is the one time in the year that I get my mommy to myself - no sister to share her with, and no distractions; except the crazy shoppers who grab stuff out of our buggies, etc.

The washier just buzzed so I better go put it in the dryer and join my prince in bed, afterall, I have been up almost 17 consecutive hours. :)

All great things must come to an end

Today was my last day at the Church. I already miss the kids. It will be so weird not having to go to work next Sunday. I've prayed for many weeks before finally making my decision and God showed me that I was really spread thin and the future was only going to prove to hold more "thin-ness". I was thanked by many great people and I will truly miss them.

On another note, Nick can't seem to stay out of trouble - or pain. Last night we were stuck in a muddy mess in Greeley and while he was digging through a pile of wood to get some to put under our tire and the pack of wood he was going through fell right on his right hand and crunched it. He didn't break it but it is SO swollen and really cut up. He has a test tomorrow and I hope it goes well for him.

I really stink at blogging regularly - but hopefully I can be better - Did I say that last time? :)
