I am still lacking...something. Not sure what my problem is. I had a good weekend, fun BBQ with the Fam on Monday and painted my daughters room Sunday night. Saturday, we went through everything and gave to those that will need it. It was great fun, very productive and some relaxing too.
I look at my life and home, what is sometimes viewed as meager in comparison to some, and really see such abundance. I am fortunate to be holding on to the little that I have. I then think, that if I was in such a situation, as losing my home and "stuff", so long as my family was well and I was holding my daughter safe in my arms, all would be ok.
So, the sweet and kind man with a note from God Himself saying he is the "one" hasn't knocked on my door yet. So, the medicals bills that stare at me on a daily basis haven't magically disappeared yet. So, my boss hasn't had some epiphany about what an amazing and invaluable employee I am. So, my home is little and not exactly upper scale by any means. It is ok. At least I have a job that gives me a way to pay those medical bills (albeit slowly), a home to recoupe from said expenses and a door for that guy to come knocking on one day. (although at this rate I will be about 75 and he will most likely have an allergy to cats seeing as I will have about 20 of them. You know, old lady + Lonely = lots o' cats) I am thankful and being alone isn't always so bad.

Cats? Sigh. I'm not a cat person. I mean, they're good fried and even baked, but otherwise ... :)
Lol...see?
But if you came a knockin' I would most likely get rid of one or two of them...lol
I have a thought.....in my life when I have 'wanted' something badly. For even the most right of reasons...Whenever I took my 'needs/wants' to the Lord I found my prayers weren't answered until I 'chose' to be happy without whatever it was I asking for. For instance....YOU. I distinctly remember giving up on ever meeting you as by that time you were 25 yrs old. My heart had finally given up with years of praying to that end, a meeting. I decided in my heart of hearts that if meeting you in heaven was all I could hope for then so be it. I chose to continue to pray for your happiness and let it rest. Only months later the "letter" arrived that changed my life and yours. Obviously his timing is perfect. That has been the case in my experience for many other 'things' I wanted or just felt were right for me.
I know that feeling of the 'something'...I pray for it for you daily.

Thanks Mom.
Geography. My arms aren't that long!
