Short post to let you know that I'm doing OK. Even though, the loss of my father has really set me back. I guess I really never did think he would pass on. But this is a given in life.
My mother, bless her has really been thrown for a loop. They lived about 2 hours south east from me and after many talks it was decided that since they lived on a farm that there was no way possible for us to drive that 4 hour trip daily or even 3 times a week to take care of her and the farm. So, after much prayer and thought we put the farm on the market Saturday. I ask that you remember to pray that the farm sells quickly so we can get her closer to us. I think it is a good thing for her and also for us. It will allow us to take care of her during this time. My mother is 68 and not in good health to begin.
So now we have the big task of going though everything and condensing so that she can move into a smaller home. Oh what a task it's been. This past weekend we got though the living room, 2 bedroom's and the bathroom. Now we have 2 bedrooms, dining room, laundry room/mud room, Kitchen to go though. So I still continue to pray for strength during this trying time in our lives.
Like the old saying goes " The good Lord won't give you more then you can handle" but I do believe that he takes you to the end of the rope. We are hanging on with the hope and belief that better days are ahead.
Thank you for remembering us in your prayers.
I wanted to say again how sorry I am for your loss... I know things must be so hard right now, for you and your mom and your whole family. I'll be praying for you!
