Been a While

It's been a long while since I've last blogged. I've got spring fever!! I'm ready for spring break. I have a lot on my to-do list!! I want to clean out closets from top to bottom, clean out drawers and cabinets, clean out my garage, and do a total detail on my car. I'd also like to work in my classroom just a teeny bit to get things a little spiffy for the last bit of the year we have left. I'm so excited that I have an intern for the next 8 weeks. She is a sweet person with a beautiful smile!! My kiddos love her and can't wait for her to start teaching!! I love watching people teach. I learn so much from their style and their art of teaching!!

It's outage time again. What that means to a wife of a guy that works at PSO is that I'm a single mom for about 6 weeks. It's OK. I don't really mind it....and here's the reason: I prayed for nearly 3 years that my husband would somehow find a job that was something he enjoyed, closer to home and with a good amount of job security. What I didn't realize is just how amazing and precise God is. He answered that prayer so beautifully AFTER Kevin went through a series of tests on his liver and we found out that he has this condition called Hemochromotosis (too much iron.) and his previous insurance had paid those big bills. I guess the reason that I find it so precise is that His timing on when Kevin was offered that job was when Kevin seemed to be at his lowest at his previous job. God brought us out of some financial debt in order for Kevin to be able to take a job that paid a little less than what he had been making. How awesome was that??!! Well...I'lll tell you....he actually made more that year than he'd made in the previous few years!!!!!! God is good and so very faithful when we ask and when we are obedient. I'm OK with outage time...two years ago at this time Kevin was offered this job and he's never looked back, except with amazement. I know so many people are being affected by this economy and things do look bleak....but the beauty of being a child of the King is that I don't worry too much that I'm going to go without....if God takes care of the birds....I certainly can be assured that HE'll take care of me and my family!!!! I say thank you every single day that He's given me exactly what I need!!!!

The trouble with blogging for me is that I start chatting about one thing and end up on a totally different thing by the end of this...if you've been patient enough to read this....then God Bless You!!!!
