Wow, I haven't written since Monday. I really hate when that much time gets away from me and I haven't written. I've been so busy, though. Sometimes I think the world is going too fast, and I just want to get off.
I've also been going through a lot. Things beyond my control have really frustrated me. I need to learn to relax, and realize that I can't do anything about things that are beyond my control. That's something that's sometimes hard to do.
I've been doing it, but it's been draining me. I'm holding on though. I'm learning a lot and getting my footing. A lot of it has to do with drawing boundaries in relationships. Dealings with persons is hard for me at times. I do better when I have to deal with things like whether or not John has a fever, or needs to go to the hospital, or something like that, LOL. Something serious is sometimes easier for me to deal with than something lighter! I can't explain why. Maybe it is because I know I really have to rally everything I've got when something really serious needs to be taken care of. I wish I was better able to do that when it comes to dealing with relationships...
Okay, I've got to get off of here. It's getting late. I guess it's past midnight. I'm glad it's November already. A new month for a new start. I love that the holidays are coming up. I love Thanksgiving and Christmas. They are so beautiful to me. I need to slow down enough to be able to celebrate them. That's what I'll do...

Key to relationships for me is to set priorities. God & me, hubby, children, job, extended family and friends. Occasionally a serious or important matter might juggle the list but don't let it last. If you aren't at your best and right with God, it is almost impossible to get any other relationship right.
I also cleave to the prayer,
God grant me the serinity to except the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.
I have found that other people are one of the things I cannot change. And that I am almost always one of the things I can, with God's help.

I'm not good with relationships either. I think you can predict things like illnesses or disasters. Either things get better or they don't. You can't predict people. Apply the right pressure and you're never sure where they'll bounce off to.

You are good at working things out with His guidance. This time of year is very special, and I'm glad you take the time to enjoy!

Relationships certainly can be difficult at times. Yet, people are so important that it's always worth putting a little bit of effort into our relationships. Hope things change for the better for you! Hang in there!
