Life

Well, it's been a while since I had something to say. Life is continuing to go by. I'm still waiting to hear back from the post office. If I get the job I will be working either 2nd or 3rd shift, I'm hoping for 2nd, and I would start on Nov 26th. My car is still running good....best $1000 I've spent in a while! God really was looking out for me there :) I'm still going to my Divore Care class, and I'm really enjoying it now. It has a lot of stuff that is good to know. Some of it I'm learning a little to late, but at least I'm learning. I've had to do some apologizing here recently, which isn't the easiest thing for me to do, but I pray that I'm growing through all of this. I've gotten the 2nd wall done in the boys' room. How long has it been since I started that?? LOL My goal is to be completed by Thanksgiving, but that may not happen. I've just been busy. Like this week, even though Shaun took the kids on Monday, I was supposed to meet up w/a friend. That never happened, but I wasted all day hoping that it would, not that it was her fault bc she couldn't have forseen how her day would go! Then yesterday, Shaun brought the kids back in town bc he had a dentist appointment, and he just hung around here all day. We did get an AWESOME deal on boots for the boys yesterday!! Both boys got a nice warm pair of boots, together totally $10!!! And, no, it wasn't a walmart special :P
Speaking of the boys, they're doing good. They're pure boy as always...lol. I got Asher some more books so that we'll have more variety :) Jaden is still into his cars. His new movies of choice are Dumbo, The Incredibles, and most fav is Robots. Every once in a while, he'll get into a veggie tale mood, and it will be all veggie tales for a while. Not sure how he determines which he wants when. He has his eye and ear appointments next month. I'm kinda anxious to get them done and over with so that we can know how he's doing. Pray that he doesn't have hearing loss when they retest him! As for the eye, I'm not sure how I want to pray. I'd like for it to be perfect, but I know that's not going to happen, even though God could if He wanted to. Part of me wants them to say go to the specialist and get this taken care of now bc I hate the thought of his eye sight being affected bc we waited till he was 5yrs old to do the surgery. But, the other part of me wants to wait till he's 5yrs old so that it will hopefully only take 1 surgery vs 2,3, or however many it might take to get it correct right now.
Couple more things to pray about. Please pray for me as the holidays approuch. This is going to by my first holidays having to split the boys. It makes the holidays not such a jolly thing. Pray for the boys. I know they're young, and I'm hoping bc of that, that they'll adjust to everything easier then if they were older. But, then there is the possibility that they won't understand and will react badly bc they are at such a young age w/all of this going on. I don't think there's ever a perfect time for divorce to happen, which is probably why God doesn't approve of divorce. And lastly, pray for Shaun and I. Pray that God will still continue to work on our hearts and our lives, that He will show us where to go from here so that things can continue to be civil btwn the two of us. That's got to be the toughest thing, staying civil. People all around me say that I need to be more of a witch w/things, and maybe Shaun thinks I am, not sure, you'd have to ask him, but I try not to be. I know that, no matter what happens btwn Shaun and I, our families will always be connected. He will always be the father of my children, his parent's will always be my kids grandparents, and so on and so on, and same for him w/my family. For the kids sake, we need to show them that even though things may not work out the way you want them to, you can still be nice to one another. I don't want things to be any more weird for the kids then they have to be, and I don't want ANYONE putting them in the position to have to decide which parent they love more!! So, just keep us in your prayers if you could!! THANKS :)
