back to reality

Well my sister left and now it is time to get back to "reality". Whatever that is. The lonely days way out here in no where land Texas, no friends, and definitely no family! Ask me if I am feeling sorry for myself- the answer is yes! It is always so hard to move- because you leave friends behind. This move though was my hardest ever because I was leaving my best friend behind-my sister. I love being with her! I do not have to pretend, be someone else, or just work at it, I can be me! 

 Though the longer I am here nothing changes about how I feel about being here in Texas- that is I do not want to be here. Everything is to far to get too. The people here are rude. The church is too far so we have no way of being involved and others being involved in our lives. Just a vicious cycle! 

Ok moving on- during the time that Missy was here I did alot of sewing for her- She wanted me to sew a skirt for Berty's recital, a body suite for the recital.I made Berty(the 5 year old) a dance bag. I sewed a modest bathing suite for Honor- that turned out great! And a special purse for my sister. Oh and I also crotched Berty a Ponchette- turned out adorable!
On the times we were not running around this is what I did! 
Here are some photos of my completed projects:









We did get to go to the beach one day- I loved Galveston- the water was so tremendously warm! it was great!!

  1. Angie,

    I am so sorry that you are so unhappy in Houston. I wish I had either a magic wand or pill you could wave or take, and everything would be okay. But sadly I don't. All I can do is pray and encourage you. And I feel like lately I have failed you in both. Please forgive that. You are such a wonder, kind and caring person. Please, please allow God to minister to this hurt, anger, and confusion. Keep your eyes and your heart on Him, and He will bring to you the joy of the Lord. I will be praying, if it's ok with you, that God will bring to you a female friend.

    I love you, that you so much for all your encouragement, you have touched me in ways you may never know.

    Sallye

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
