Stress

The stress is eating me whole

BUT God, I know you are in control.

My Year in Pictures September 2026

September was another busy month. But, I also started to feel like I am finally coming out of the heaviest parts of grief that have cloaked me since my mom passed away. I am finally able to feel hopeful again (which I seemed to have lost along the way). I am 100% a work in progress, but I am thankful to see the light flowing back in.

My Year in Pictures August 2026

 August was a blur month, and I missed posting at all about anything...but here I am, trying to play catchup again.

A new house again

We have been looking for a house for a year and a half. Sunday morning, Matt got into our bank account to see how much his paycheck was so that I could pay our tithe. While he was in there, he noticed that he had won a bonus for $600ish dollars at work, but hadn't been told yet.

My Year in Pictures July 2026

July was another hard month. I got a medical diagnosis that was expected, but different from expected. I also did something to my hip, which resulted in xrays, doctors appointments, and at least 4 weeks of physical therapy in my future (my hips are out of alignment). The chronic pain slowed me way down, making it harder to get out for my daily walks, which started affecting my mental health.

Light

Sometimes you are looking for the light in the darkness. Sometimes you have to be the light in the darkness. My goal is to not add to the darkness.

Little glimpses of happiness

I am in a difficult season. It has been seven months since I have found the time/will-power/motivation/whatever you want to call it, to do a post like this. It's not that I haven't had things to be thankful for, I have. I am just on the struggle bus. 

But, this = Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. Psalm 150:6
