Last week we enjoyed some very warm weather which was impossible not to take advantage of and have a delicious BBQ out in the back yard. But today all day long we've experienced some winter like weather yet once again. It looks beautiful though.

Listen to the voice

For weeks now I've hearing a voice speak to me and it seems like the voice keeps getting louder. There comes a time when the voice is so clear and everything it says makes sense but I just don't know where to begin to accept that my purpose is much greater than a wife, mom, sister, & friend. My judgement about pretty much everything has been interrupted by negativity. I've been a funk for a while and I don't want to feel this way anymore. I know that God has a way to reach out in the most unlikely way sometimes. This voice has been softening my heart, it's been making feel like forgiveness has to begins with "ME". I never really knew what it meant to forgive, that has always been a very hard act for me. Watching someone in our family go through some tough times made me realize that I'm just like this person in a way. Looking for a break in life. Buck and I have been through alot these past 6 years we've lost track of the one who can help us through anything. Gosh it seems like I can't type fast enough, I have alot to say and my mind is racing, but I'm going to stop here.
I ask for a special prayer for Buck myself and our kids. Sometimes a simple word of encouragement goes a very long way.

Quick Yard Sale

Have you ever had a 1 & 1/2 hour yard sale? Well I never had, but my sister was all pumped up and ready to have a 2 day yard sale. Once 2:30 came around she said, "Let's pack it up finish this tomorrow." I just looked at her and said "WHAT?" you started about an hour ago. Apparently she woke up really early this morning to price her belongings and felt like taking a nap. Wao, I was tickled. So I guess we will continue the sale tomorrow. She spent more time placing everything in a nice and organized manner on the tables and the driveway, but that's okay, it's your yard sale Idalia.
