Count down...

The moving day is getting closer! We close this Thurdsay (Lord willing!) and then Dad will start painting on Friday. James and I have been trying to figure out what colors we want in the house. We planned on going to a paint store last Saturday but I started not feeling well after having an italian beef for lunch so we went back home. We were able to look on the Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams websites and they have all of their colors online and programs where you can "paint" rooms to see if you like the color. So that was cool. We are still debating colors. Maybe green for living/dining area. Not sure about kitchen. If you have any ideas then feel free to let me know! It will be so nice to have our own living space again and to have our private lives back. :)

A bit of vent

Yesterday morning, work was frustrating. Either it was rude callers or frustrating conversations. It just seemed as though it was one call after the next that were all annoying. Not as smooth sailing as I like it to be. We had our massuse come in yesterday which was nice, because I really needed a bit of time to unwind. Twenty minutes of someone rubbing the tension away in your shoulders is great! The massuse commented on the fact that my muscles were all knotted up, more than usual, and I knew what the reason was. Stress! It has been a bit of a stressful month. What with moving, the holidays, and living in limbo, it has been a bit frustrating! Especially with the whole temporary living thing and the fact that the move date into our new place got pushed back. But I know that soon enough we will be in our own home and things will get back to normal.
To be able to have our own place is more exciting than I can express. I was so looking forward to getting in there, that when things got pushed back, I was devastated. (That sounds really dramatic but I was really disappointed at the time.) My husband had to remind me that God is in control and he knows what is best and that we must rely on him for all things. When hopes are set and things get in the way, patience is hard to come by! But we rejoice in knowing that all these earthly possessions are not our own and that we have a greater possession that dwells in heaven!

This is so popular!

Well, I am going to try this out. It seems to be all the "rage", both of my sisters-in-laws are doing it. But I am not doing it because of that. I cannot access MySpace from work, they have blocked that website for security purposes. But I can go on blogs, so it might be a fun way to talk with my sisters while I am at work. I am only giving this blog to you two and don't care for anyone else to read it. My life is not an open book for all other eyes! But it might be another fun way for us to connect with each other with our busy lives. So this will be my first "test" post and we will see how things go. :)
