Life on the Road

It’s that time again…  My little combo of Thursday Thirteen (my Second Edition), and Thankful Thursday - ususally at Sting My Heart, but Guest-Hosted this week at Laurel Wreath.

There is SO much to be thankful for this week!  Wow!

1.  Baby Blessing - I am so thankful that the Lord has blessed us with another little one, and I pray for his/her safe and healthy development.

2.  God - Always, right?  But particularly for His strength right now.  With the robbery, the miserable weather, and the pg symptoms, I’ve been leaning a lot…

3.  Wolf - My amazing husband who is out there in said miserable weather working himself to exhaustion to take care of us.

4.  Family and Friends’ Support - Thanks to everyone who didn’t say, “You guys live in an RV, why the heck are you having a baby?”

5.  God’s Grace Through the Kindness of Strangers - He does, indeed, work in mysterious ways!

6.  Fellowship - It’s a little stressful going to a different Church every week, and not feeling that “home” feeling.  But we’ve been so warmly welcomed (and even fed!)…

7.  Opportunity - Even though we’re feeling “stuck” here in Memphis (we’re ready to go, but waiting on the insurance check that’s coming here), God keep providing opportunities for our business to grow right here.

8.  My Kids - Nick is working hard to get onboard with a new chore checklist system, and Jewel has been just as sweet and cuddly as can be.  They can always bring a smile to my face.

9.  General Delivery Mail - LOL  I just had several folks send things ahead to the Bowling Green P.O.  I’m so thankful I don’t have to wait until we’re back in Mississippi or California to get everything!  And who even knew such a service existed?

10.  The Magic of the Internet - I have an incoming link from the Wall Street Journal online page “The Juggle.”  How crazy is that?

11.  Our Safety - As much as I’ve stressed about the theft, I’m so thankful that we’re all safe.  This is definately a town where you can’t take it for granted.

12.  Extended Family - Wolf’s Aunt and her tribe have been so kind to us during our stay here.  Everything from an extension cord and a place to park, to the occasional meal and showers inside.  We didn’t plan to be here this long, and appreciate their patience.

13.  Playmates for the Kids - It’s been really fun for both Nick and Jewel to have Hannah and Carson to play with, even if the ages are a little “off” (they’re 5 and 7).

What about you?
