My own nose has been rubbed so raw and red it is all but bleeding. I do thank God that this is the worst that we have to worry about and I know that soon it will be a think of the past. I have to laugh at your intro a little bit again, though.<br /><br />KatKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214169887240603175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148113527957790011.post-11216918589931612042009-11-05T11:28:05.731-08:002009-11-05T11:28:05.731-08:00Amy,
I have been right where you are so many time...Amy,<br /><br />I have been right where you are so many times. It seems like it goes around and goes around again. And sometimes even again. There have been winters when we could not leave the house for 3 months! And the thoughts that you will never have a full night's sleep again can really get you down. And the inability to comfort children in pain even more depressing. But how wonderful that we have the great Physician to call upon. The one who alone can heal all sickness even sickness of the heart called despair. <br /><br />Here's hoping for a sick free winter!Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214169887240603175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148113527957790011.post-14419536234091589852009-10-25T08:28:34.829-07:002009-10-25T08:28:34.829-07:00I am sorry, and do not want to be rude by not read...I am sorry, and do not want to be rude by not reading this post, but I do not have much time right now. I DID want to come over here to answer your questions about the chicken pizza.<br />Yes, everyone loved the pizza. In fact, my oldest son said, "I did not expect to like it, but I have to admit that I am impressed!" <br />Of course, we only used 1/2 of the ranch dressing because, as I explained in the post, we mixed it with canned mushroom soup for lack of having mushrooms on hand. I am sure we would have like it with the ranch dressing alone if we had done it that way, but my husband thought it seemed more expensive to use so much dressing, so I don't know if we ever will do it without the soup mixed in. <br />your Alfredo sauce sounds delicious, too, and I think we will have to try it that way sometime. Kat's bead IS great for the crust. What did you use for your crust?<br /><br />Thanks for visiting!<br />♥HopeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148113527957790011.post-28880027669676926952009-10-24T19:23:30.747-07:002009-10-24T19:23:30.747-07:00I'm so sorry you are struggling with these iss...I'm so sorry you are struggling with these issues, but unfortunately, I know exactly what you mean! We're 3+ years here in GA and just finally, maybe, beginning to look at this like our home. Well, maybe not 'home' in the truest sense of the word, but home for now. I still can't say that I like it here. However, God is good and continually places great people in our lives that I'm honored to call my friends. Is it perfect? FAR from it, but I KNOW there is a reason we're here... likewise, there is a reason you're there and I pray that God reveals it to you and soon (and clearly!) :)<br />Will continue to pray for you to find peace in CO.jodihttp://jodi-muchadoaboutnothing.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5148113527957790011.post-33986741891276444952009-10-23T11:40:14.212-07:002009-10-23T11:40:14.212-07:00I'm sorry it's been a hard transition. I ...I'm sorry it's been a hard transition. I am blessed to live in the same city I grew up in with my mom and dad about a half mile from us in the same neighborhood. My kids swim for the same swim team I swam for. We work out at the same gym where I grew up. My kids get to go to our family ranches even more often than I did. You get the idea. It's been a hard adjustment for my husband, however, who is from Indiana where there are trees and lakes. In all fairness we met in Texas so I always tease him that he chose to be a Texan, but it's been tough for him. His parents moved here to be close to us several years ago and that's been nice, but it's not the same as home to him, even after 11 years! Now he's thinking we may need to move, possibly. I've been thinking about how hard it would be to leave everyone and everything here. It would be so hard! But like you said, God's in control and if He has us move I have to trust that He's going to do something in our lives through it. Somehow we'll draw closer to Him or our faith will increase or we'll be able to better relate to Christ's sufferings. Anyway, know that I'm sorry for your being homesick and praying that either God will move you back or show you what He's doing with you all there.Celeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04958942308350578991noreply@blogger.com
