Sorry if it seems I had forgotten about this blog site, unfortunately I guess I had in some way. That's what happens when life knocks you to your knees. Last year I was busy most days doing homeschooling with my youngest and simply managing my home to try and keep things running smoothly. It's not that easy raising 2 teenagers and 1 preteen on one income and keeping things running smoothly with everyone's crazy schedules; and yes that includes my dear hubby's schedule. But we have managed even in the ensuing chaos left behind after the ice storm that hit our area in December. We have basically had to trust in our precious Lord to provide for all of our needs since our home has been inhabitable since Dec. 24th. But we have had wonderful friends who reached out and took us in for 3 1/2 months then God provided us with an apartment on a short term lease (which is unheard of in this area) for the remainder of the time. And now there is light at the end of the tunnel as we are looking to finally be back home by the end of May. That is a very short synopsis of the last year, but that is not the end of the story.
You see in all of this God has opened up new doors for me and I am now working on starting my own business. While we were at our friends home I took on the job of cooking meals most nights since their schedules are even crazier than ours. This got the wheels turning and I found myself really enjoying being able to cook for other people on a regular basis. So as of right now I am in the process of taking classes and preparing to be a personal chef. Not something I ever had thought about but God has opened my eyes to one of the talents he has given me that would allow me to help others. So the journey continues but in a new direction and with each step of the way I am looking to God for guidance.
