Wow! I Could Slack More!

Okay, so somehow I ran out of hours in the day to blog. Quick recap.

Tori is working 2 jobs trying to save up for college next fall. She and Sammee have an apartment in Old Town. Sammee won't stop doing Theatre. Maybe this summer she will get paid to do it again. Kat started high school. Her freshman year is turning out to be rough, but she is bouncing back well. I have a great job (temporary)! I love what I am doing, and I love the people I work with. The thing is, I work at least 50 hours a week.

I am also still doing ministry at good old FBC Poky. That area is a touchy one. Since our senior pastor left last March, things have been in limbo. We are looking at getting a new pastor within a few months, but things are kind of tense right now. We have had quite a few people leave the church, some of them leaders. And I'm stuck in the middle. I'm just trying to do the job that God placed me to do, and it is getting difficult to do. Frustrated is the best word to describe it. I know it will get better, but right now it could give me an ulcer. I shall muddle through and stand my ground.

Sometimes I wish life could be easy, peesy, lemon squeezy. But I live in the real world. The world of unexpected expenses, saving for a rainy day then getting a monsoon, planning the day and then having to scrap all plans. I still have lots of joy in what I do, and I still love my kids, even though they make me nuts sometimes.

So, basically, life is good, regardless of the twists and ridiculous stuff that occurs. I am pretty much still happy. I have other issues with my ex and his wife, but that is all for now.
