I haven't posted much for so long, I almost don't know what to blog about. I have so much going on inside my head, but not much that's there is all that interesting. My world still feels a bit out of control and not settled into a routine just yet. So here are some random thoughts...
Only 3 more class periods for this semester....yippee! But there's a term paper due Tuesday and a chapter quiz. Then another chapter quiz and a final that must all happen in the next couple of weeks. I've worked pretty hard in this class and have a 95 average at this point. So just a little more and I can mark this one off the list.
Work has slowed down...but not really. Now we are working on all that got pushed aside for the deadline....and catching up on administrative duties.
Garden work....we purchased a tiller this spring and have managed to till up a fairly large garden spot. Got some planting done a few weeks ago. So I will be eating some fresh lettuce from my garden later today. It looks yummy! Hubby and I planted more seeds and some transplants yesterday afternoon. Forecast includes rain, so I'm hoping God will water it all and help it grow.
Pets are all doing great and bring pleasure to our days. Sam is such a sweet addition to our family.
Hubby continues to improve, but has good days and bad days.
I think I'm still in shock over my brother's death and then his expected grandchild was stillborn this week. My nephew had to bury his dad and child only 9 days apart. We don't know what caused either death. But thank you to all who have prayed for us during this time. God shows His love through friends and family.
I've been so tired lately that one evening I got home from work and laid down on my bed in my work clothes (just for a few minutes) around 7:00 PM. Next I knew, it was midnight. I changed into PJ's and climbed back into bed. Slept until 6:00 AM. I think I could have done it again the next night. But I didn't!! Maybe tonight!!

Oh Karen darlin', you've had a bad time of it! I pray that God gives you comfort, He will you know. Perhaps Grandpa needed his grandbaby there with him where he can help him grow...I'd like to think that's the answer. I'm glad that school is going well for you. My DIL Anna graduates on May 14th and she is thrilled to have college behind her! Now, if she can find a job, lol! Hugs from South Carolina...and heaps of warm thoughts

It is certainly expected for you to be exhausted! I hope that you get some free time to just get out and enjoy some beauty of this season. Grab that camera and get out of the house! It will help clear your mind and get you some needed fresh air.
I am still praying for you and your family.
So much has been going on in my head too and I haven't really been able to focus on too much of anything. Its really been a crazy two weeks...
When your mind is tired your body knows it. Sleep is healing. God Bless.
God love ya! ((((hugs)))
Stillborn??? OMWord sweetheart!!! So MUCH for all of you to handle!!!
Sending you lots of love and ((((HUGS))))
It sounds like a whole bunch of ups and downs. Life sure does get like that sometimes. It is so sad about your nephew and what he's had to deal with so closely together.
And as far as you sleeping that day, GOOD FOR YOU!! Your body must have needed a catch up day.
Big hugs to you.

Hugs and more hugs to you and your family. Sad times indeed but it sounds like your family is strong. So sad about the baby as well. Peace be with you all.
