Blah!

Maybe it's too much Easter candy.

Maybe it's too much out-of-town-ess.

Maybe it's not going to church on Easter Sunday.

Tweedle Dumb died today (hamster).

I just feel blah. Maybe it's like Tammie said. I am such a take the bull by it's horns kind of person. I don't like waiting on other people's plans. (Which makes it hard to wait on God's plans). And I don't like the way we do school right now. I want something different. I want to change my entire perspective. But...I really want God's perspective. But, sadly I don't feel like doing all the work of reading and researching to figure out what I want to change TO. I just know what I want to change FROM. But it's a start, right? In the meantime I guess I'll roll in my blahness.

Drama!

Oh, the drama with ladies. I cannot imagine what God thinks sometimes. So and so hurt my feelings...I hurt her feelings....will we do co-op? Will we not? What will it look like? We must all visit around and find out what everyone is thinking. I can do classes with you but not with her. I can do service projects with these families but not with others....Blah...Blah...Blah...Can you tell I am a little frustrated? Not with any person just the enemy and how he comes in to destroy everything he can. The ladies are all my friends and all very precious. I don't want to have to NOT be in co-op with them. I just can't do the workload anymore. Is there anything so wrong with that? Sorry to bore you all with this information, but it is what is going on in my life right now and the reason for me not posting very much. It is all consuming!

I have even considered moving to get away from it all! Too bad we just refinanced the house. How's that for conflict resolution? Not very good I guess.

It's times like these that I thank God for a levelheaded husband who can see through all the murkiness and choose to wait on the Lord. God, give me a spirit of humility to work through all this yuck.

My Square Foot Garden

Seed Maniac

This past weekend we created three square foot gardens. We now have a total of 34 squares to plant. And I have now visited and purchased from 3 different stores...several times. We'll just leave it at that.

-I have learned what a GMO is and that I don't want them.

-I have learned what a foot cubed is and that it's heavy.

-I have learned that a tiny little board that is only an inch wide can cost just as much as one that is 6 inches wide and 2 inches thick.

-I have also learned that I love picking out seeds but get overwhelmed when I realize I have to plant them somewhere! I mean, what if it's in the wrong place??? God might not be able to handle it or something! Geez.

Maybe I'll post pictures of our "luscious" gardens before they start sprouting. That way I don't have to give excuse if they don't produce a darn thing.

Hello

I haven't posted in a while and really have so much to say that I can't say any of it. I'll have to get to it later. Somehow it makes me feel better to have a new post though.

"I Have NOTHING To Do"

Was Blaine's first comment to me this morning. I scudded out of my room looking for something to feed the monkeys waiting for breakfast. I like monkeys, so that is not meant to be derogatory.

"I don't know what you can do. Maybe you can play a game."

"I want to nail something."

Well, you won't find any help from me in that arena. You'll have to ask your dad was the blank stare I gave back to him.

It Is Very Sad

To open your blog and see a blank page.

There....

Now it won't be blank.
