Just when we finally get music on my blog--and such music!--it all comes crashing down. I noticed that once James added the song to my site I was having trouble nearly every time I tried to access it. My Internet Exporer would encounter an error and just shut down. When James' computer did the same thing tonight I decided we would have to do something. Don't know what the problem is since the music doesn't mess up James' own site. So, after much sorrowful contemplation, I told James to just take the song off. ~sniffle~sniffle~ I'm so bummed. Maybe we'll try again a little later on to figure out what went wrong and get it fixed. But for now, there's WAY too much going on to worry with such things. Which is really another good reason to take "Pennsylvania 6-5,000" off. I felt a little guilty, what, with all of the heavy things going on right now to be sporting such a happy, carefree sounding song! Might come across as if I'm not taking things very seriously. Nothing could be further from the truth. Although I must admit, I have laughed heartily tonight. Even about some really "bad" things going on. You know how sometimes things get bad, then they get really bad, then they get really, really bad, then even worse than that... until you just kind of crack??? Usually it sends me to tears, but on occassion I find myself laughing about how ludicrous things can get. I've reached that breaking point a lot lately, but it's usually been in the fall apart, curl up into a ball, pray-pray-pray-pray-pray and bawl my eyes out kind of way. Tonight, I grabbed my Bible and God SPOKE TO ME. Gave me a Psalm that David wrote thousands of years ago for us (my family, and my Dad in particular) right here today in this particular situation. Felt so much strength and renewal from God, and wonderful peace in my soul. And felt pretty special, too, that He took the time to reserve that "just for us" passage in the Bible all these years! Wow!!! :-) Then I began going over some of the craziness again and found it to be just that: CRAZY. And I laughed. A lot. I really felt like I was going a little loopy myself, just thinking about everything that is going on -- felt like going outside and screaming and jumping around like a wild woman just to release some of that "THIS IS SO NUTS!!!" feeling that was overtaking me. "A great deal of screaming and noise making," that what I felt like doing. ~sigh~ It's so hard to blog and try to express what you're feeling and what's going on in your life when you're trying to be so careful to not say "too much" or anything that might be out of line! I'm sure James will read this very soon though and will let me know if I ought to just delete the whole jumbled post. (By the way, the last post before this one was deleted along with the music. Don't ask -- I have no idea why.) I guess I should find something else to talk about.
So, how 'bout them Broncos?!? ;-) Or the weather--yeah, that's good. How's the weather? HOT here. Way too hot. In more ways than one! Ha! There I go again -- I'll try another subject.
Kids are doing great. Husband is staying busy. Aunt Sue's foot is doing MUCH better. (Don't think it's broken after all, thank the Lord.) Hershey Dog is still out of control. We've got three new stains on the carpet in my office (not in connection with the dog) that James is not very happy about. Don't know what they are or where they came from. Uuummmmm... Hhm. That's about it from around here.
Pastor Sam has found us a church building to use for our services! YEAH! So tomorrow will be our first day. We'll have a 12:00 service, which will be strange, but it will be exciting to have a place to go instead of just our homes every time. I've always loved home ABM meetings and the "closeness" they promote, but we've really missed having a building. So this will be nice. I thank God for opening that door.
Here I am again. Rambling, when I really don't have anything to say. And here you are again, reading it all as if there's something of significance hidden in all of my babblings. I would offer you each $100 for sticking with me through this whole thing, but some of us don't feel comfortable making committments that we're not willing to follow through with. ~AHEM~ That's it for tonight. Keep praying, y'all! God is working and I know He cares for us all. He is sooooo good and I can't begin to express how thankful I am to be in His hands and the joy that is in my soul in the midst of this horrible storm. Sometimes I wonder if it's right to feel so much peace and joy in the middle of something like this??? I mean, it's kind of WEIRD when you think about it! Rambling again. Sorry.
Love you all!,
