keeping on

Well, I thought I should update this. We sealed our fate for what WE can do when we paid the dentist for my teeth. No chance to make up past house payments. That’s so hard for me to know. Can’t change it. I knew this was coming, but still, it’s hard. I guess we are going to loose the house tho Steve is still not saying that out loud. I really have no idea what we will do when that happens or how long it will be before BOA moves on us. Statistics say one in 45 children are homeless.

On a bright note, we got another house to clean this week and we have sold some things on ebay. I wrapped those old food cans with wrapping paper we had, stacked them, and made us a tree using old garland, lights and ornaments. It’s really cute. I may never buy another tree we got so much help with being creative! No one really cares about presents anymore. We have what we need.  :0)

People have ideas they share and I listen well in case there is something we haven’t tried. 3 yrs of this though and two things are very clear. ONE: we are all suffering from depression. and TWO: we need a storefront. I don’t know how to get rid of the first or pull off the second.

I don’t want this to be so negative. We are OK. Everyone is healthy. There is work today. We aren’t hungry. The animals are all ok. The car is running. The phone is on for emergencies. The sun’s out.

One day at a time works with blinders. :0)

Like today, work with Don is out – painting is out – but we sold $35 worth of stuff on Craigs List. I’m working on a knitting project and Steve is rebuilding our gardening table. It’s 70 degrees, sunny and G came home early from school. Finals = half days.

About Morning Knits

I believe in and practice positive living. I love YARN, cooking, music, bird watching, herbs, and gardening. I am passionate about YHWH the Elohim of all the earth. I believe it's our responsibility to tend that earth. I basically do my thing in a quiet, amused way. I believe in laughter, and the power of combined prayer. I am a true homebody. I have 6 kids, all home-born and successfully breastfed. They are all grown. I'm the oldest of 9, daughter of a missionary mother who lives in Kenya, and I have a spoiled service dog and 2 rescued cats. Right now, there is balance after yrs of unemployment. My disability was approved due to degenerative discs, fibromyalgia, and obesity. That last is hard to say. I believe we owe it to ourselves to protect our mental health. It's precious and the one thing we can control. I would rather not do my own housework and I talk too much. I bought a house in North Carolina which I ended up leaving for my husband to sell. I'm a two-time caregiver. My husband and I are separated due to stroke complications and personality difficulties. I am in Texas now. The one place on earth I said I'd never go unless Yah moved me there and HERE I AM! G and I are sharing a small apartment and so far, things are going well.
