New Year - Same Issues

So, 2012 is here, and Jan is just around 1/2 over.

I decided for some new stuff.  Hair dye - check - but not enough that anyone will notice.  I'm a subtle type of gal. New Bible study - check, it just started. Reading the Chronological Bible - not doing as well there as I would like, but I am not giving up.

Then there are the "same issues" I'm in the midst of a stressful time at work, it comes around every two years. Still have mom here and she is having less issues of a physical kind, but more of the mental kind. Its like having a petulant kid, yet there is nothing I can do about it. Its not trainable.  You cant discipline it away.  She refuses to eat some dinners I cook, even though I KNOW she likes it.  Which my youngest child doesnt understand why she had to eat her dinner if grammy doesnt. talk about some stressful dinner times!!!

But I am blessed.  The Lord has provided a wonderful husband, two beautiful smart healthy girls, and a stable income for us. I love spending time with my little family.    I have three dogs that love nothing more than me to sit in the floor with them and them climb all over me and love on me.
