All In Due Time

Well, a lot has happened, good and bad, since my last post. Things have been crazy busy and I'm just trying to catch up and take things a day at a time. =) This delay has been beneficial in one aspect. I've been trying to work as much as humanly possible and take as many jobs as I can that come up. If I work over 50+ hours a week, so be it. Where there's a will there's a way!! I won't lie..funding this adoption is a huge stress factor for me.

BUT...I'll start with some good news...

Kitchen work is about to begin!! It was supposed to FINALLY start this morning but, here's some of the bad news...we lost power last night. Go figure. So, delayed again. I just want the power back on so they can start! Yes, it's sweltering hot, but I'm at the point of not caring about that. My furry baby is getting to leave and visit with everyone, so it's all good as long as she is comfortable. Just start on the darn kitchen so it can get done!!! I am so thankful that my mom is willing to get this much needed work done!

Other big news---My sister is getting married in just over a week!! I'm very excited for her!! Unfortunately, God chose to call my future brother in laws grandfather (like his dad since he lost his father at a very young age) suddenly last week. Terrible timing! He was 95 years old and left behind his 92 year old wife. They had been together 70 some years. I hope my bro-in-law will be able to find some peace during this time...=/

My sister has been clearing her old room out and I just can't wait! See, this will be my little Russian's room and as soon as all her stuff is out, I get to start it!! Sooooo excited! There is some major reorganizing going on in my house and between that and me working so many hours, I'm finding myself to be exhausted..lol. I know God has a plan and it will happen on his time, not mine. I find it ironic the way he works things and the people he chooses to send into my life and when. I'm just trying to hang on for this ride and hope it's smooth.

AND I hope this bilateral agreement is a positive!!
