:) so far so good.


*ReadBible* every day. And it does help. Ya know it does help me to understand that my situation isn't God's idea *PeaceWink* or His desire.

I still don't know how to emotionally manage through without being swept under the rushing rivers in my marriage. Sooo very many facets to all of this. I wish I had an answer. . . . . here come the emotions . . . so, I guess I'll change the subject.

Gardening was very good. The flowers look okay. The battle of the snails continues. Some of the snails slithered over the snail killer like it was an autobon freeway. But it doesn't look like all the snails survived the powdery killer. I think there is hope for my plants.

I do need more insecticidal soap though for the aphids. Hopefully this year the garden will do better. It's kinda interesting how some pests don't like certain plants. snails don't care for the apple tree. aphids don't care for the indoor poinsetta. I like gardening. I learn alot.

Hey sis...I noticed your mentioning of your marriage...and the Virtuous Woman study came to mind. I want to encourage you to check it out. It's a 28 day study and has a lot of truth in it...but if you will go through it...I think it will help you some with understanding what direction God would have you go in your marriage and your family life as well as your Spiritual life. I've done the study myself as well as many others here. I think it would be good for you. Here's the link if you want to check it out: http://www.christianityoasis.com/Virtuo ... /Forum.htm

luv ya

hi everyone :) . I have to make it short.

work bad then ended well. please continue to pray, I think God had a hand in this situation. will post more later.

still reading my bible everyday. this is definitely good. it's helping me to cut down on the cursing.

praying more often due to stress at work. again good.

my friend suggested that my husband and i go to see a very specific type of therapist. i knew my husband wouldn't go to a therapist but he actually agreed to go see this one specific type. i wouldn't have guessed this in a million years. i told him he has to set up the appointments and even find the therapist. he agreed. praise the Lord. I'd definitely been turning into a B*^*^(^( on the inside and couldn't figure out what to do. I guess sometimes things just have to get worse and keep getting worse and then get worse again. i don't know but, maybe this will help both of us.

and if it doesn't work, well, at least we tried.

gotta go get some sleep. please pray for me tonight as i have to go to work and i'm not wound down yet from last night. wasn't a good night initilly. I luv you all very much.

hugs,
whisp

You got it sis...prayers remain. I am so glad your husband has agreed to therapy with you. This will be good for you both. I know God can work in marriages...as He loves a healthy marriage. Yours can be healed...keep that faith.

Rushing Rivers:

Work is a MESS. And not a good one either. Oh dear . . . .

I have a potential opportunity to get out of this situation but not certain if I am supposed to make the jump or not. I just don't know and don't want to look back with a million regrets one way or another . . . .

My current situation is volatile. The other situation would also have some volatileness to it as well. This one is definitely out of control and has been for some time. The other situation is better managed though it has been a mess. I think the other work place may be much better by now but, I never know for sure. There won't be perfection anywhere until Jesus returns . . . . I just prayed for Jesus to pick me up and basically throw me through the correct door and get me where I need to be. I'm not doing well with hints and neon lights these days.

Alanon tonight. Sleep now. Body is exhausted. Luv to ya all.

whisp

didn't read my bible yesterday. Gotta start over and that's ;okay. take care.

Whispering *hug* May peace be still around you sis. The answer to your questions can be found in what brings you the most peace. Staying or going...and then you can know it it God's will. But you must lay aside the confusion first...to find the peace...so take some time to sit and talk with the Lord...resting in His arms and seeking His peace.

Prayers for you.

luv ya

Thank you everone for all your responses. All the feedback has been greatly appreciated.

Work is nutty not because of what I do but some of the people I work with. The bickering, tattle telling, the complaining . . . . etc. Goodness, I thought I was doing well, and then last night :oops: . Man it was everything I could do to hold it together and I didn't do that well. I let my colleagues know to LEAVE ME ALONE and DON'T SAY ANYTHING.

Man, I just wanted to get up and walk out. I barely survived the shift came home, hubby and I went out to eat, then went to bed.

Please understand, I feel much better now. Much much better now. I just didn't have the patience to deal with everything that came up last night. Today, I'm hanging . . . .
