218 Views | I am feeling really puzzled. I have spent the morning in chat today which was nice, i caught up with a few friends and had a laugh - a good way to start the day.
But i was so miffed cus a man, (whom i have never spoke too asked me to ring him. I dont give out my e mail to people i dont know let alone a cell number but it totally irked me cus he is married too and why pick on me?
it made me feel horrid. | |

| Frogs - a new joy |
Feb 8, 2008 3:57 am
185 Views | I have lived in my tatty lil house now for 10 years - we have a huge garden at the front with trees in and a pond - a even bigger garden at the back.
My gardening skills are - anything that gets in the way of the mower gets sliced - this ranges from flowers, kids toys - dog toys - everything!!
anyways the first few years i cleaned the pond out - all we had in there was a newt that i named Todd cus he was all on his own which is strange cus newts live in pairs.
anyways last week, i heard the most amazing racket but couldn't work out where from. i caught a glimpse of the pond which was postivitely bursting with life. The first time i counted 7 frogs - i watch the pond daily and it totally fascinates me - i counted 15 frogs and masive bundles of frogspawn.
i fear i have morphed into a sad old woman that likes watching critters (lol) | |

187 Views | I have been trying to blog for days then sit here looking at a blank screen and am unable to find the right words.
I have been wondering a lot lately about my job - at the moment i work in a shop that sells tat. I am trianed to work with adults with Learning Disabilities and that is my passion.
I am begining to find shop work tedious, its boring and not stimulating at all. Its nice meeting new people and chatting but i just feel so unsatisfied. Like i have achieved nothing.
I do feel it is where God wants me at the moment and i am tryin to be gracious about it, but aint managing too well. | |

189 Views | On Tuesday i was talkin on the phone to my sister. i usually have a coffee and a ciggie while i am on the phone, settle down and chat in comfort.
I lit my ciggie and my hair went up in flames, just mt fringe and i saw a big orange flame by my head - i panicked and tried to put out my burning hair using my hand.
The whole house smelt of burning hair - it was terrible. But my hand was not burnt and my fringe is just shorter.
I thank God cus it coulda been a heap worse. | |

174 Views | Just wanted to share how lovely today has been.
I went to work as usual, it was a steady stream of customers and all wanted to chat and share and it was really nice, i caught up with some old friends and they have had even more babies!! and made a few new accquaintances.
I went shoppin after and had enough money to buy everything i needed, which was a minor miracle in itself (Thank you Jesus)
I came home (my kids has trashed my house) but it was ok - everyone helped to tidy up - i was amazed!!
We had tea.
Today has just been wonderful - i am so peaceful and so happy. | |

| A job for me |
Jan 4, 2008 3:14 pm
271 Views | In May i became very sick - consquently i left my job as a senior support worker - a job i loved! it was a very hard decision for me but one that i know i had to make.
Slowly, with a lot of help from doctors i am begining to get better.
Since this time, God has provided me with all that i need.
Today i went for a job interview, with a view to getting back to work, making new contacts and bringing in some much needed cash.
I got the job, just shop work but thats more than i expected to achieve at this time. I start on Monday, i am a lil anxious but feel ready to embrace working again. Its just for a few hours a week and i am so excited! | |

183 Views | It struck me the other day durin my quiet time with God - that 2007 wasn't all bad, i had previously blogged how i wouldn't be sad to see the back of 2007 but now i realise (slow as i am) that God actually taught me a whole heap of things.
The year was difficult, but every step i took, God was right there, preparing people to assist me, encourage me, be there for me. it was truly amazing.
i feel that i have grown so much in this passed year - in all areas of my life. Things that were important to me, are not now and i have many more things in perspective.
I also know now, that whatever happens in 2008 that God has already prepared this for me and you - and as long as we stick like glue to him and his word - he aint ever gonna abandon us or leave us. How totally amazing is that? its blown my mind. | |

231 Views | For 37 years i have always wanted my mothers approval of me, to acknowledge me in some way - maybe to tell me she loves me or is proud of what i have overcome or achieved.
That aint gonna happen!
Last night i took back her cards and cheques that she gave me and 2 of my children for Christmas, she excluded my eldest son.
My mother is a damaged woman, an alcholic- all i can do is pray for her. I know she will not like my letter. I also know and accept that she will never talk to me again.
The only way she will talk to me is if a miracle happens.
She has terminated friendships she has had for decades with people at the drop of a hat.
I have such an amazing peace about all of this at the moment and am lookin forward to Christmas with my children. I never believed it would be possible for us all to be together this Christmas - but we will be and i am so grateful.
Happy Birthday Jesus! | |
