Seeking the Lord Daily

I can't believe it has been almost 3 weeks since I last wrote! So many things has been going on. We gave up on school for the rest of the year, and we are going to focus on teaching the girls some much needed homemaking skills and teaching them how to be young ladies. We are also going to work on Mr. James' attitude and some basics before he joins the girls and I in school this next year. And no.... still no new pregnancy announcement. But I do have my 2 month checkup after my eptopic pregnancy June 5th. So we will see what happens then. I will write again soon. I have to go make some dinner. Blessings to all! Blessings~ Maudie

I am sitting here thinking about several things. I can't say them all out loud but if you think about me today , please pray for me. We are expecting storms again for like the 30th time this week, lol! The weather is dreary and looks like it is going to be quite dreadful today. I am caught up on all my chores which is a miracle, and so I am basically just sitting around, doing busy work to keep me moving and not asleep on the couch. As for my trying to conceive journey, my test are still negative. I think that I am out for this month, but that is okay. God has something better planned. I am struyggling in several areas and some days are better than others. I really believe that the Lord is preparing me to be alot more "together" and then I feel confident that He will bless us again. I couldn't help myself though today at WalMart, I bought a $3.00 onesie that is blue, and it says "Worth the Wait" with a little colorful snail trailing behind the words. That is...

It is a rainy day today and I am happy that I do not have to get out in it until I go to get Cameron from work. The weather is saying that we are going to have storms and rain all week. I am hoping for nothing more than a little thunder and heavy rain. I like stormy weather as long as its not too stormy. I am sitting hear wearing my grandmothers apron that is atleast 50 years old and it feels awesome. I have very little memories of her, but I am proud that she left these things for me. I tried to participate in the "Simple Womans Daybook" today, but for some reason I could not copy and paste her article, and I don't have time to type it all out. I am only taking a small break and then I am back to work. I have my kitchen to clean and my bathroom to clean. I only have bedding left to wash and a few towels. Anyways I wanted to say hello and that I am gonna go for now! Blessings and be safe. Blessings, Maudie

As I sit here typing, all I can hear is "STOP" , "LEAVE ME ALONE" ,all in whiney tones that I can not stand. My kids are being terrors today! My husband has not said 2 words to us today and has played his Playstation3 all day!!!! I am tired today. My mom has slept most of the day, and I have done laundry. We just came out from under a Tornado warning which was interesting and that got the kids all hyped up. Cameron is now asleep on the couch. I am trying to have a good attitude today, but goodness it sure is hard. I did get to write out some of my goals for next years homeschooling and what I plan to do as far as schedule, courses and James' kindergarten. We have a ton to work on. We are also trying to get pregnant again. I know that the Lord will bless us again in His time, but I just pray that I am atleast pregnant by June, so that the bulk of the nausea and tiredness will be gone by the time school resumes in August. I can push the school year back by startin...

I didn't write yesterday because I have had a lot going on. First I woke up to a wet bed, thanks to James. Then I heard my boxer bumping around in the bathroom and so being that it was 5:30 , I went ahead and got up. I walked down the hall just in time to see Silas ( my boxer) releaving himself on my hard wood floor!!! I was furious as he rarely does this. So out he went. Then just as I thought that things were starting to run smooth , I sat down on the couch, prayed and was maybe one sip into my first cup of coffee for the morning, when I seen a wee little mouse scurry through my hallway, through the living room and into the kitchen. It caught me off guard ( although I had been suspecting we had a mouse) so I screeled and jumped straight up on to the couch. Then after I calmed down from that, it was time to get Cameron up for work. The normal routine went well and as we started to pull out onto the road, Cameron said that something didn't seem right. Of course, my back tire wa...

I am finally getting some work accomplished Prasie the Lord!!!! I feel like I am moving forward with my house cleaning finally after a few blah days. Cameron is leaving Tuesday for a job and won't be back until Wednesday. Then he will be on vacation until Monday!!!! I am so excited. I hate that he has to go out of state, but I am glad he is off after that. I am still feeling a little nauseous, but atleast I don't have the swine flu, right :-) Yes, it could always be so much worse that it really is. I have to stop and remind my self of that constantly. Well Im am off to finish my housework and run to Wal Mart to pick up Taylor's meds. Maybe I will write again later :-) Blessings~ Maudie

Today is another one of those days. I have really not been able to get anything accomplished the last couple of days and it is starting to show. I love to have everything in order. I am kinda aa perfectionist at times. Today I had to get up bright and early and take Taylor Grace to the Doctor about a rash that she has. She is now going to have to go to a dermatologist. Then I came home and my older girls had left their bedroom door open and my moms chiuahuah(sp?) pooped on their bed!!!! It makes me sick!!!! Mother treats the dog as if he can do no wrong, when really he bites and nips at everyone, including her. He is down right mean at times. It is days like this that I do miss the comfort of having a home that just included me, my beloved and our kiddos. I wish that my mother was in good enough health that she could live on her own. But that is not the case. I have to remember that the Lord never gives us more than we can handle and that I am privlaged to have a mother in which to ta...
