Yes, two days of the week down - As the work week falls anyway. I have found a great deal of trouble in getting on board with the week this time around. I nearly feel as if the first week of day light savings time hit me this week, though it has been several weeks since the time change.

I would be inclined to turn the alarm clock off and roll over for another few hours, at least! However, the reality is this idea is not an option. As most mothers are well aware, so it is as a foster mother too! Rain, snow, sleet or flu, we have to drag ourselves out of bed and roll into the day rather we want to or not.

Yet, I admit there are times with the kids all in school that I can sneak back under the covers for a little extra day dreaming time. Shhhh... You didn't hear that from me - okay?
There are some things that we need to keep between ourselves here! I'm sure you agree!

I have received the "that sucks about the house" sympathetic concern already. However, I surely don't want anyone to see it that way. I'm interpreting it a bit differently than this. I see it as one answer that gives us renewed direction. What was a bit frustrating was the time in wait that we were experiencing prior. However, a response one way or the other is always a good thing really.

It isn't a “no”, it's a “yes” to a different path and if we truly trust that God is in the process, as I do; then it's all good!

I'm not all together sure where this is all leading too, and I suppose ultimately I don't have to know. What I do know is this. Many new ideas and pursuits are replacing a mind set of being put on hold for well over a month now. These are new ideas that hold great promise and are anything but negative in themselves. I knew there were many things about a move that I was not looking forward to. In addition, there were also many things about our current home and location that I truly don't cherish the idea of giving up. The fact of the matter that we looked at, considered and even moved forward on another property for a time gave me a new perspective and interpretation of what we should be doing with the vast and wasted format of our current home. Therefore, if you look at it from that point of view, it truly is all good!

I have to ask myself if I would be seeing the potential that I now see here, had I not first had to visualize that of which we not only would have wanted to do, but would have been forced to do to make the other house on the hill suitable for our needs. If such a pursuit increased my vision, than how can that be bad? It simply can't!

Therefore, I'm looking forward to the upcoming input and plans that can be completed and shown to us in the near future. First of all, I believe we will see about fixing the electrical matters with the tax return. With that done, we should be able to see about getting the hot tub going and useable as well. This in itself will be a huge perk! I've been given a couple varied ideas on future plans and I have to say that I am open to all ideas and perspectives and then we can go with the best or generally the most serviceable ideas.

Therefore, don't stop dreaming or believing if something doesn't turn out quite the way you visualized it! If it offered a new insight and increased your vision, which it will if you allow it too, it will have been well worth the journey.

I am closing for now - and hope you are all visualizing and moving closer to your ultimate goals even as you read here now!

God Bless!
