warfare

my plants are disapearing at an alarming rate. the basil especially. well, i will not stand for that, and have since declared all out war on the slug population in my garden and flowerbeds. i am armed with cups of stale beer, salt shakers and crushed eggshell and used coffee grounds. this is War!

aggghhh

so school starts in a month or so, and i am really starting to freak out as to how the heck i am going to pay for it, how are sam and i going to be able to survive on one income slash one and a partime income. its tight already wth both of us working full time, but when i go back to school its going to be even harder. i have to keep reminding myself that God is in control and that the won't let us down even though things don't have to work out how we want them to.
The Lord knows that i am not content with my job, so i believe that he has opened up a path for me, so that i can go back to school, get a bachelors degree in human development, get my masters in special education, use this knowledge to help people. but He has not shoen me so clearl;y as He revealed this careerath howe the money sid of things was going to work out. i think that is the faith side of things. if i have the faith to quit my job(which makes me miserable) and go back to school and do what He has told me to do(i.e. given me great peace about) then i believe that it will all work out. hiowever, i need all the prayer that i can get because this is not going to be very easy.

Get Me Out Of Here!
i really need a vacation. like now.

i know

it has been awhile since i have posted anything, and i feel pretty bad about that, but do not fear, my laptop will be up and running soon , so i can finaly post the pictures i have been taking.
so lately, i have:
been working,  a LOT.
been lazy (as in after work collapsing into a blubbering heap and doing nothing but drinking tea, huddling underneath blankets and dreaming of the seaside and quiet art musuems).
been cooking (and baking!)
been struggling with the fact that this is the way i am formed by God(how dare i question his design)
been dealing with my frizzy red hair (it doesnt help that i am trying to grow out my bangs).
been missing my friends although i have seen them lately...
so thats been most of my time, just normal me.
