Day 179
You ever feel like your days are filled with heavy rain and there is no where to seek shelter outside. It seems it is one thing after another sometimes. But what I am thankful for is that God is always there to be my shelter, He protects me when the rain seems so heavy upon my life but He also uses that heavy rain to strengthen me, to give me insight into what His path is for my life. I am thankful for His paths even though they may seem difficult at the time. I have felt many rains this year but I also have seen many rainbows at the end of the rain this year. He did not leave me comfortless, He gave me a rainbow and I know that He will always give me a rainbow in His time. There can not be a rainbow without the rain, have to remember that one!
Also have to remember to trust myself with God's direction. I have learned I can not turn to everyone for advice that sometimes I just have to figure it out between me and God. I have learned I am strong enough to do this, God's wisdom will direct me. I may make mistakes and people may think I am not that strong and I even doubt how strong I am at times but when I go to my Father, He gently reminds me that through Him I can do all things.
I was reading on one of my favorite sites today and it said "You have enemies, good that means you stood up for something". Sometimes I go through life not wanting people to be mad at me, not wanting to be mad at people but I have to remember that its okay to stand up for some things and if people get mad, well they get mad. That doesn't mean I don't love them, that I don't pray for them just means we stood up for what we believed in and if we honestly pray and seek our Master's face then He will show us if what we stood up for was right and in line with His Word. And if I am wrong I hope I am humble enough to ask for that apology but if I am not and I clearly see I am not then I have to be okay that those people are mad at me. That everything in the end will work out for God's will in my life.
Okay so I know that all this was random but just some of my thoughts!
Have a good one!
Day 178

Day 173
A few pics with my new macro for today!
Have a lot on my mind today. I know that God will bring me peace and I have to trust His leading in that area. Life is strange and full of changes. I don't like change very much. Change is good but yet bad at the same time. You have to let go of one thing that brings you comfort (even things you love so dearly) and embrace something that scares the mess out of you and that maybe you don't like very much. But life is about change, without change how would we grow!
Have a great one!
Day 172
A nasty frog that was by my back door last night. That was the most disgusting frog, it was slimy and nasty and I thought everyone should share in it with me lol. The pic was taken with my new (well used but new to me) macro I got last night! Thanks baby for the present!
And a little something that I made yesterday to get my mind off of some things that have been bothering me very badly. Being crafty is my go to after prayer about situations!

Day 170
Funny story about this card. I was in the bathroom and noticed our anniversary card hanging on my hubby's mirror and thought well those words look familiar so I went and got my fathers day card and well you know the only difference in the card was the decoration and it said Happy Father's day instead of Happy Anniversary. Hahahah! Got a big laugh but that means I really mean those words, right? Oh well, might have to start making me some homemade cards seeing all the stores do is change the occasion. Now they are both hanging on his mirror. I love you baby and I hope you had a great Father's day!

Day 160
No great photo for yesterday just a snapshot of a shirt I made my oldest daughter. They are selling these shirts for fifty bucks online and I thought, I think not! So I decided I could make it myself, actually came out better than I had expected with a few mess ups here and there but she loves it. That is really all that matters is that she loves it!
I enjoyed my week with my oldest daughter, we got some quality one on one time while her sister was at camp. She is so precious and has a heart of gold. So tenderhearted which can be a blessing and hardship at times. She is just an amazing person and growing into such an amazing young lady, I could not be prouder of who she has become as she has grown. She is such a loyal person that it amazes me sometimes. I love you baby girl and you are growing way to fast! You have so many great qualities that you should never forget and remember that you are a blessing to whoever you come in contact with, the light of God shines brightly in your life!
Next week will be the week with the little one and I am sure she will keep me even more busy because she likes to do, do, do and go, go , go! They are so different but I love them both so very much. I am missing my little breakfast making buddy and I cant wait to see my angel this afternoon. She is one strong willed child but you have to love her for it. Wow I am really missing my baby girl, I wish they would hurry and get back home!
Talk to yall later!

Day 153
Yep another bug! He was sitting on my new stool (well old but new to me) this morning. Me and my hubby are going to redo this stool this afternoon so I will prolly be posting the new version of the stool soon. I love doing projects with my hubby!
Life is some what complicated at times, some days you can think of all the joys in life and then other days you really ponder life. You kind of realize how life has a way of showing you who people really are in your life. I guess I have been pondering this lately. I wonder if the people in my life really are who they say they are, yes maybe I have a trust issue in this area or maybe I am beginning to see people for who they really are to me and me to them. Kind of upsetting I guess because well makes you sad at times to realize a friendship really had stipulations on it, that when you rock the boat or you let people down then they really aren't the true friend you thought they were. Is this God's way of showing you your true friends or is it just people being people. I will have to take it as God revealing things to me since it is what I am praying for, praying for all God has for me.
Why do we as Christians think that all the ugliness in us has to hide? I mean it is still part of who we are, right? I have been reading a book and we try to hide our negativity sometimes and its not all wrong. How do we ever know who people really are if we don't disagree with them sometimes, if we don't let them see our weaknesses, our failures. I want to know the real side of people not just the part they want me to see. Being real, that is what I want! I am not perfect in any way, I have failures, weaknesses. I hope the people in my life love both sides of me but I guess sometimes they just can not do it. Sometimes we go through life feeling betrayed by people in our lives but maybe it's God's way of bringing us to where we need to be and who He wants in our lives. He removes some and keeps the ones that are a help to our lives. Or at least I pray this way, I could be wrong as usual but I pray for Gods guidance in all these areas. I want what He wants for me and I want who He wants in my life! I will trust in Him and in all things He reveals to my spirit.
Okay I know this was just a lot of rambling! (I know I ramble on this a lot, maybe I need to accept it and move on, who knows!) Oh and I am considering just posting my pics over here and moving my personal rambling to a different blog, just in case you start seeing just pictures posted. Just a thought, still pondering!
Later Gators!
