Friday

Hello all,
  Today is Friday! Hallelujur! This week has been a mess of emotion...but that is me. I have been trying to figure out this house situation and it's been a major stressor for me. I need to just relax and understand that it will happen for me, but I'm not the relaxin' type. Today I was pre-melt down for at least 5 hours. I was ready to lose it on a person for leaning over the fax machine...but seriously, it's not like you're a goalie, back the frick up! I quickly realized I needed to take a step back and think about what I was about to say. Instead of "ok, I'm up to giving you an attitude adjustment" I said "hey, are there any faxes coming in? no, ok. Do you mind if I fax something right quick?" and then I kicked her in the face...with my mind. I found myself getting pissed off at the sound of people's voices today. Not uncommon for me; but it was just fax-queen. It was another person, who, yes, gets on my nerves, but I can deal with. It felt like nails on a chalk board. I wanted to bust through the doors dividing our offices and ask them to please lower their voices. It was like college all over again...except in college I really did ask people to keep it down...yes, I was that person in the dorms. However, I don't think it's right that I have to listen to you and your gf fight for ALL hours of the night and then have wild crazy make up sex after. I get it, you're passionate people...but please keep the passion volume on low. I'm just sayin'. Save it until I'm not home and I won't judge your sex life on a scale of 1-10 (6, btw). I'm not saying that you need to speak to each other through intense staring. I just think that you should save the buck-wild stuff for when you're out of ear shot. When I'm on the other side of the wall, pretend you're parents are on the other side of the not-so-thin wall.

*sigh* anyways, I worked out with Smelly Jr last night and today we are to go a-walking. Bean is coming over for dinner with the kiddos and I am excited to do nothing tomorrow in the AM. I hope you all have a great weekend!

moods

hello everyone,
     Today was a not so great day...however it wasn't terrible either. I am in a weird mood. I am exhausted, stressed, and emotional. I have no actual reason for it. I just feel like crying and sleeping at the same time... It's not so great of a feeling. I am having a hard time between figuring out how I am going to do my job when my boss moves, getting into a house, and not having kids yet. I know that I will be able to do my job well enough until we hire a replacement for my boss. I know that we will get a house. And I know we will eventually have kids one way or another. I just wish I felt prepared for my boss to leave. I wish we were able to get our offer in on a house right now and move in shortly there after. And I wish, more than a lot of things right now, that I was pregnant....And now I'm crying....pathetic, haha.
    One thing that is stressing me out right now that is rather manageable, is the selling of my sea otter fur products. I have orders for baby booties and moccasins, but I am stressed out because I want to start making a real income off of my work. Which would entail selling something worth more than $100 and $200....or a lot of smaller items. It's hard to sell high end products in a small town. My client base is pretty small right now. I know that I have quality items though, so I just need to keep my chin up until things get rolling.
   I have to admit, although I haven't been eating horribly. I definitely have not been eating diet foods. Please pray for me. I would really love God to bless me with some peace....And a house...haha. Also, if you could pray for my friend over at Guinn and Bare It; she is having a rough time waiting for her hubby to get home from over seas. Also, I have a unwritten prayer request for a friend that I have been thinking about lately. Please pray for her and her husband. Any prayer requests? I'm listening, and so is Jesus. Btw, the song that I have really been jamming to lately is by Casting Crowns-Your Love is Extravagant. Here are the lyrics:

Your love is extravagant
Your friendship, it is intimate
I feel I'm moving to the rhythm of Your grace
Your fragrance is intoxicating in the secret place
Cause Your love is extravagant

Chorus:
Spread wide in the arms of Christ there's a love that covers sin
No greater love have I ever known; You considered me a friend
Capture my heart again

Your love is extravagant
Your friendship, it is intimate
I feel I'm moving to the rhythm of Your grace
Your fragrance is intoxicating in the secret place
Your love is extravagant

Spread wide in the arms of Christ there's a love that covers sin
No greater love have I ever known; You considered me a friend
Spread wide in the arms of Christ there's a love that covers sin
No greater love have I ever known; You considered me a friend
Capture my heart again

Your love is extravagant
Your friendship, it is intimate
