Lost

Where did all the time go?  One minute I was writing a blog, and then, poof! it disappeared!  I feel guilty for leaving anyone who follows my blog perhaps wondering where I may have gone.

So much has happened in the past six months in my life, and my blog fell away under the craziness.  

I decided to go back to college this past September so that perhaps I could graduate with a degree at the same time as my daughter.  I qualified for financial aid so I took two courses (online) and managed to receive an A for both, but boy, did it take a lot of my time.  Especially when I am also trying to run my Etsy.com vintage shop simultaneously!

Then came Christmas...a very small Christmas due to our financial difficulties.  So much thanks to our oldest son who bought a Wii U for his brothers and sisters for Christmas.  Everything else came from Savers or the Salvation Army!

Then I had to decide if I was willing to continue with school, seeing how much time it took last semester.  And crazily, I decided to take two more classes which started in January.

And for the biggest change of all....

Our first grandchild was born January 25.  A beautiful girl named Madeline Grace who has so blessed our family.

So you can see how I let my blog slip.  

And now, I am contemplating whether God is calling me to continue this blog, or whether he has other plans in mind.  I have missed writing and communicating with the people who read my blog and I am leaning toward trying to maintain it.

For now, I shall pray about it, and I would ask if you could spare a prayer for me and for my family and our finances, and especially for newborn Madeline.

May God bless you and yours!
