I wanted to take a minute to thank Heidi for reminding me to turn to the Bible and providing me with a scripture to put me back on track.
I had quite the break down this week as Josh's unemployment is up in two weeks and there are not any jobs on the horizon. He is applying everywhere from California to Texas to Georgia and all the spaces in between. There are not even any jobs up here in Michigan or Indiana to apply for.
But this weekend we found out that the government is extending unemployment benefits for 20 weeks. Whew.
After my break down I dove right into the Bible (thanks again Heidi) I prayed and prayed for help and support. Then the next day a friend gives us enough money to catch up on our car and other bills (she knows who she is and we thank her and her husband) and we find out about the extension on unemployment. I was fighting so hard for life these past couple of weeks not realizing why I was struggling so badly until Heidi sent me a mistake email intended for someone else but ended up showing me back to where I had wandered from, and she didn't even know it at the time.
Thanksgiving was fun and tasty. It was also bittersweet as I really missed Georgia that day more then I do on regular days. When I go driving to the store some days I think about the car seat that should be in the back seat with her in it talking to me as we drive around.
We are making it though one day, one step, one moment at a time. God is definitely guiding our steps and hearts.
Hope you are all staying warm. Josh keeps it at about 85-90 in here (we heat with wood!) so I wear shorts and t-shirts most of the time. Take care.
