I have heard seveal times that our life is so crazy, we should write a book. I figured a blog post was the close enough. So here's what the summer has looked like for us (and it's only July):
1) my car had issues and had to have work done.
2) washing maching stopped working. Had to borrow one from my parents until we can afford to get our fixed.
3) garbage disposal started leaking
4) my car needs more work done
5) husband's car had to have work done
6) issues at church have us questioning whether we should stay or find a new church home
7) messed up my knee. Probably a torn meniscus
8) behavior issues with one of the kids
9) Christopher left for his 2 weeks of annual training, and his car broke down 2 hours from the base; causing him to have it towed to a mechanic, find a hotel for the night, and find a ride to the base.
10) error on the part of the military caused us issues with our tax refund - we only received half of what we should. The military finally corrected their error, we filed an ammended return, and are still waiting for the other half of our refund. (it's been months)
These are just a few things I can come up with off the top of my head.
Y'all, life is crazy! I don't understand why God allows so many things to hit us all at once. What I do know is:
1) He is right here with us for all of it
2) He is working all these things out for my good (Rom 8:28)
3) someday I will understand why we had to go through such trials, but it may not be till I get to Heaven
4) I am blessed!! Even with all these trials, I am still blessed.
Just a quick update.
love ya!
