Life takes you for a ride

It's been a while since I posted.

I know.

Blogging, tweeting, writing, journaling...I enjoy all of that so much, but lately, life has taken me for such a ride!

Since I last posted anything of consquence...I've moved to a new city, started a new job, gotten a new apartment and made some new friends. :)

It's been so crazy and fast paced since I moved.

City life suits me, but at the same time...there is seldom a quiet moment. I feel like a rushing river at times, I'm always whooshing off to the next thing.

One thing I haven't done...but I will confess to you, is kept up with my morning quiet times. I get up even earlier here than I did in Omak. I seem to have less time in the mornings to sit with my cup of coffee and breathe in the mornings. Instead, I'm up doing and going before I know what hits me and I remember that I haven't had any quiet time...it's 11am and I'm sitting at my desk running reports. :P

I will confess too, that I miss it. I think I'm faltering a bit just from the lack of visiting with God that I had in Omak.

I have also been more focused on keeping my kids in check. I don't have the luxury of homeschooling them..nor do I have the opportunity at this point to stay at home with them....we are living in such a big rushing pond...not at all like Omak. So it's a different enviroment for them too. It's been a lot more intimidating than I thought it would be.

I have been trying to keep our slow paced schedule like we had in Omak. Coming home, homework and dinner...good meals on the table and talking like we did...but DUDE. It's so tough. It's like a different mind set.

It's been tougher still because I get those old pangs of longing. I want a relationship. I want my relationship with Sean back at times even...I laugh it off, but I know deep inside I'm still wishing for 'someone'. I should capitalize that...because I know it shouldn't just be anyone, but when you've been single for a while you want there to be someone so badly you forget and you're almost willing to take anyone. haha.

Some of this seems very trivial.

Very.

So I will end this.

As with blogging, I think of my blogging friends and I am praying for them. I know that I might not have very many readers...but if you read this please pray for my friends the Copelands. I've known them for about 3 years now via internet. They recently moved to a new place too! Guinea! And it's been rough going for them...Baby Emmaus was sick from the last tweet they posted, and Debra was falling sick as well. So, all my stuff seems lame and silly...they're working hard for the kingdom and not feeling so good, so please pray for my friends!

Anyway...hugs and cranberry scones,

SarahLynn
