Between the cows and the blackberries
Most of you know or may remember that we live in a log house. The foundation is bad and we pay way too much in rent, but it's home for now. Next to us is a pasture/ranch and we get to watch the...
I had to laugh
10:30 pm Eric gets home from work. Not unusual so far. I was testy and we bickered a little. Then it hit. 4 days into a new job and he blames me for the job. BLAMES ME for where he is workin...
In the Pit
I am sitting in a pit. I don't quite know why, either. My husband has a job. I'm glad for that, but it's going to be a hard adjustment with money. I'm wondering if the progesterone is affecti...
Something New
A friend of mine is moving. It's kind of sad. She is a really sweet lady and I would have liked to have gotten to know her better. She's been a fun FB friend and she has been realatively open ...
The Burden of Being New/dr update
I am finding that being new is very hard. We have been here over a year, I have had a few catering jobs, I'm fairly talented in other areas, yet because we are new no one wants to give me a chan...
I saw a movie.....
Eric and I watched a movie last night. We watched The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. I struggled with it at first, but then as we went on I got more and more involved, but by the time it was over...
The flip side of anguish for me
I really am OK in some weird sense of the word. I am in my kitchen cooking and that provides me with some weird sort of comfort. I made a homemade shortbread with a sweet cream cheese spread an...
Where my prayers have wandered to
I've been praying a lot lately. I find myself in constant conversation with God. I usually am, but this time it feels more intense. I keep asking God to show me how to end my marriage. I want...
Well, blow me down.
Ahhhh....here it is. The lovely angry Eric. The one that berates me and is so verbally nasty to me. The Eric that reminds me all to frequently what a horrible human being I am. The one that c...
Not this time.....
Well, Eric didn't get the job with Campbell Soup that he interviewed for last Friday. He's hurt and angry. Please pray that we can stay here. The kids do not want to move and honestly, I don't...
While there is time.
Thought I would do an entry while I have time. I innocently commented on one of my dear friend's entries that I wasn't able to do much here because my husband was hooooome. He saw his name an...
All done!
I had my surgery on Friday. The doc removed a polyp from my cervix and did a dnc. I'm sore and tired today. I have to go back on Wed of next week for him to check me. I don't have any bleedin...
.......and we have an answer of sorts
I'm having a procedure done on Friday. It should alleviate some of the issues I have been having. I hope. Getting it done before insurance runs out.
I had a title, but now I can't remember it
Our week started like any other. School for the kids, my usual daily stuff, work for Eric. It didn't stay that way, though. Tuesday night Eric was sent home from work and by Thursday he had be...
Homeschooling my oldest
Several weeks ago I finally broke my oldest down and got to dig into her school work. It was not a positive experience for either of us. She was failing. How could a kiddo that is homeschooled...
Not well the last few days.
Things at home have been very tense. My parents came for a visit and I didn't let them see my husband. It wasn't really intentional, but the other side is that it was. We are all really frustr...
health
Something, I feel, is wrong. I have to go to the doctor and I really don't want to. I have had a bruise/blood spot on my left middle finger for a couple of years now. It swells and isn't quite...
::squeeeee:: Good News (for me anyway)
We are NOT going to Ohio. He got word today. He was told, "we are going in a different direction." I don't give a hoot the meaning. I don't care one whit. We are staying PUT. YIPPPPPPPPPEEE...
A dentist visit and an outing
I took the kids to the dentist today. Finding a dentist here is easier said than done. We drove 45 minutes to Sulphur Springs to see someone who took our insurance. It's bizarre to live in a p...
Reprieve
It's been gorgeous here the last few days. That meant I had kiddos BEGGING to go outside. I generously complied. That meant I didn't have to listen to them and that meant we were all happy. ...
How do you make them STOP?!
I can't get my kids to quit bickering. It's mostly the younger two now. Sometimes it's all 3 or some combination of 2 out of 3. How do you make it stop?! I really bent over backwards for my...
The interview
Eric went for his interview in OH. Cold, but the weather conditions were more favorable than what he came home to. He's driving home now in what is being reported as ice, but he is saying the r...
The Secret
This actually has a twist of humor to it. I haven't felt 100% for several days now. My throat has had a niggle to it and scratchy. I have kept going. I went to Bible study yesterday morning...
In a war
I am in a battle with my husband. This seems never ending. I'm tired and worn. I have caught him in yet another lie. Little, but a lie none the less. He's leaving Sunday to interview for a ...
Book Description
That about sums it up.
