I'm working a temp job this week to help pay for disgusting property taxes on a house that is sucking the life out of me. BUT - I'm so glad to have work, and thankful I can work this little job and pay the taxes. And thankful for bloggy friends who can encourage me like you do. :)jesshttp://www.jessdager.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139371.post-8027818230245592922010-01-20T07:46:51.146-06:002010-01-20T07:46:51.146-06:00Sometimes I feel like that too.

...Sometimes I feel like that too. <br />So often lately.<br />Like I just want to throw in the towel.<br />Kaishon wore his pajamas all day on Monday. He wore them outside to play. He wore them to the grocery store with me. And then he wore them to sleep on Monday night. I feel like the worst mom.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07874897254332872367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139371.post-19690900130273867992010-01-19T16:13:00.641-06:002010-01-19T16:13:00.641-06:00well said...I think at this stage of my life I fin...well said...I think at this stage of my life I find myself wondering a lot "will i ever really make a difference?" Between cleaning, cooking, arranging a nursery schedule, teaching 2 and 3yr olds, changing diapers, carring a 2nd child I often look at things and say "okay and this makes a difference for the kingdom how?" And then I have days where I remember that Jesus was in the Investing in People business and I'm filled with a sense of satisfaction and peace knowing that I'm doing exactly what he has called me to do. But those days are so few and far in between sometimes.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08795538413354707685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139371.post-87557098896099825422010-01-19T14:08:55.862-06:002010-01-19T14:08:55.862-06:00I often read your blog, but have never left a comm...I often read your blog, but have never left a comment before. I enjoy your honesty and the fact that you put things out in the public that I never would. Your statement "...because I felt like if I could get the house clean, I could brandish some control over the world," I fully empathise with. When I'm feeling like I can't get a handle on things, cleaning works. It works because it brings things back to basics, back to a place where I can say to myself, "I can start from here. I have my bearings now."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139371.post-89690713126987201382010-01-19T12:29:36.198-06:002010-01-19T12:29:36.198-06:00keep on keepin on...you are doing a great job!keep on keepin on...you are doing a great job!Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13986539074669615018noreply@blogger.com
