Tired

Do you ever just feel tired? It's been three weeks and I feel...not rested. Listless. Blah.

Can I tell you something that it's not? I'm not depressed. I'm very touchy on that subject. I was depressed when I was 14 and doctors hear me say that (you have to disclose these things) and immediately dismiss any of my concerns. Oh, it was because of that. I get so frustrated that I cry and that obviously doesn't help my case.

I think I know what I want, but how do I know that's what I'm meant to do? Steve is getting the rejection letters and everything is just the way it was.

Hebrews 11 is good. To have faith that God is faithful.

And I believe He is. I'm not sad. I know that when He needs it to happen, it will. I'm not angry...I've been here for three years and Abraham did this all for like, 100. It's just that I'm tired and nothing seems to be making me less tired.

Vote For Girls Power 2 Cure Inc.



I've met some really awesome people through blogs. One of them is Kelly. She has two children: Brooklyn, who has Rett syndrome, and Boston. Kelly works for Girls Power 2 Cure, which is trying to cure Rett syndrome. They're part of Chase Community Giving on Facebook.

Here's what Kelly has to say about it:

What's the big deal? Well, this will knock your socks off! First place gets a $250,000 grant and 2-5th place gets a $100,000 grant! This would be an amazing step forward for our organization, as well as all the girls suffering from Rett Syndrome.

Our mission is to grow every dollar that comes into Girl Power 2 Cure ten times before we grant it to support the research projects of the Rett Syndrome Research Trust.

Here is what we need you to do:

Place a vote for us! Go to http://www.gp2c.org/ to get started! Not on Facebook? It is as easy as entering your name and email to get an account set up.

Prayer Request

My sister was dating a guy for three years and he was fine. He was okay. She broke up with him and he's now boarding on stalking her.

He has a conceal and carry permit.

Please pray for her safety.

He Always Knows What To Say To Me

Agime, a woman I love to talk to at work, is from Albania and was talking about how her son needed a good Albanian woman (and then apologized to me since I'm American) and I texted my husband to say that I was feeling like a bad wife. Here's what he said:

You are a great wife! We are not in Eastern Europe, women burnt bras so men would do housework.


He is the most ridiculous man in my life and I wouldn't have it any other way! I love you, Steve!

A Fisherman's Prayer

Dear God, be good to me.
The sea is so wide and my boat is so small.
