whirlwinds.....

so, yeah, things  never seem to stay dull or mundane in our house....Josh and I have been having looooong discussions lately about some things (some of you know what, others don't yet) and we think we may have come to a point where we have a plan....before anyone reading this makes any assumptions here are a few reassurances:

I am not pregnant, and do not plan to be

Other than these lovely colds, we are all healthy

The kids are doing great

Josh and I are doing great- never better actually

Oh, and the dog is annoying, but fine   :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just when we think we have a "plan" we hit a bump....the latest one:

my "job" ended unexpectedly yesterday

and without warning.....not that I made a lot of money, but it did make a difference.....

(--Thankful that I had already finished Christmas for everyone, or else it wouldn't happen this year....)

The other shop that just opened isn't doing as well as they thought.....this is leaving Josh and I feeling a little
anxious about the safety of Josh's job.....

---Thankful that Josh decided to call my dad and talk to him for almost an hour last night looking for "fatherly advice"....this was a big deal for Josh, and I am proud of him.

So this post might feel somewhat disjointed, and for that I am sorry, I am feeling pretty crappy- this cold is kicking my rear end, but I needed to post, it is what saves my sanity sometimes...yes I have a journal as well, but this feels more like I am talking to someone, really a bunch of you, and it is therapeutic for me......so if it doesn't make alot of sense, I am sorry...if you have questions, feel free to post a comment, or email me....
So, some of you might be asking, well, what can I do for you right now?  Pray. 
Pray for:

Direction and Understanding

Restoration of our health

Peace of mind

I think that those would be the top three right now.

Thanks for reading this.....Have a lovely day!!
