***UPDATE-PLEASE GO OVER AND READ DAN’S POST AT YESTERDAY ONCE MORE-HE HAS THE MOST UPBEAT AND ENCOURAGING POSTS-EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED TO READ ON THIS MOODY MONDAY***
I don’t know about any of you..but I have to admit I am starting to feel a little emotional lately. I don’t know if it is because of the weather. Or being stuck in this house the last few days (besides church yesterday morning) due to hubby’s surgery. Or the fact that I have to go back to work tomorrow after being off the last 5 days. Or the fact that I think I am getting a cavity and my fear of dentists. LOL!! But I have been feeling a little emotional lately. How about you?
Just to let you all know, hubby is doing well. Recovering right on track...hopefully!! BTW, I wanted to share something that really moved me this past week. As some of you may know, this was my husband’s 18th surgery in 5 years. And another thing that some of you may know, is that my family just started going to church about 4 months ago.
So, when our new Pastor called Wednesday night to see if he could come sit with me during Ed’s surgery..I wasn’t quite sure what to say. I insisted he didn’t have to but when there was a knock on the door only minutes after they rolled Ed back, I was moved.
You see, after 18 surgeries..that was the FIRST time I ever had anybody come sit with me. You see, I am not very close to my family. So, moral support isn’t something I am used to.
So, when I say I am been feeling emotional I don’t think it has been all a BAD feelings. Because honestly, even though life can throw us some curveballs sometimes, it is people like our Pastor that seem to be restoring my faith!!
The real ironic thing is that the last few sermons at church have been about learning to trust others..something I need ALOT of work on. LOL!!
Anyway, thanks again for this journey that I am on...
Til Next Time..BIG Hugs!! Carrie♥

Carrie,
I know EXACTLY what you mean!! It is so hard to lean on others when you aren't used to doing so. But in doing so, you are also helping them to feel like they are needed. And that is a good thing! Big hugs to you!

You're not alone...I've been very emotional lately. The winter is getting very long and it had definitely taken a toll on my mental health.
I hope your husband continues on the road to recovery.
Hugs go out to you Carrie, I've been there with my DH many times. It's good to know someone cares about you and your family. My prayers are with you.

Hope you are feeling better emotionally and I also hope hubby continues to recover. So glad your Pastor sat with you...it's good to have someone to just share the time with. Hope you can stop by and visit me soon. :)
I'm very stubborn sometimes. When someone wants to help me out or be there for me during a tough time, I don't know how to react. Lots of us struggle with fellings like that.
Praying that your husband feels better soon and I'm so happy you found a good church and a caring pastor!
