Update on our life...

I've been wanting to write a post for a bit but never seem to have the time! Life is getting on a fairly even keel. I will say I'll be glad when the next couple of months are over and the 'first' are done! I've said this before but it's still amazing to me how your sub conscience is so aware and kicks anxiety in before your even consciencely aware of what's coming! We've heard absolutely nothing over the months. I believe he's alive but that's simply a personal belief with absolutely nothing to support it. We sure have appreciated the support and prayers!

I've been working very hard at getting my business up and going and am seeing some nibbles. Lots of networking is being done! I pretty much beat Christina out the door most mornings (at least 3 out of the 5) going to those networking meetings. And she's typically out by 7:20. But in the end that's what builds business! Then lots of one on one meetings with people I've met at the networking meetings. I'm a pretty reserved person naturally speaking so this has been quite a change for me! So with all of this, hopefully nibbles will turn into gobbles!! :)  For quite a while I struggled with what I was doing, was I headed in the right direction or not??? Should I keep pursuing my business or just find a 'job'?? I felt like God wanted me where I was but was getting pretty discouraged with what I saw as lack of progress. Right after our church conventions I had this 'AH HA' moment. I wanted to try and help seniors, I had a bookkeeping business, Help seniors with bookkeeping!! I did it for my grandma for years and am semi-helping my parents, I have the experience. Interestingly enough, ever since, it's felt like things are falling into line. Can't say I'm making the money yet but it really feels like i'm headed in the right direction. I love the assurance we get along the way from our Father. My biggest hope at this point is that those that I'm around when I'm networking and dong jobs will see our Fathers Spirit in me and as a result see something that they want. I don't believe in 'preaching' to everybody but I pray that the life I live will do that for me. If I keep Him first then everything WILL work together for good!

Erika is now engaged!!! She just gave me the news today. So sometime next year my oldest daughter will be married! Wow, so hard to believe!
