Home Sweet Simple Home


Reticent

Surprisingly (to me) I have been reticent on my blog as of late.
Why?
It’s not as if I don’t have things flitting through my mind or pithy words to say.
Or is it?
Yes, the past two weeks have been quite busy and often my time on the computer has been limited to work, work, work.
But still-
I’ve made time before . . . .
What stops me?
Ah, I know.
The fact that I have put a self-imposed block on posts dealing with my job. I want to talk it out (because that is how I think it out too-- out loud) but I can’t. I’m not as anonymous as I would like to be.
It is what it is.
It is a struggle not to write about.
It’s taken me forever to compose this post because I have to keep editing so as to continue to not talk about it.
Which therefore makes this a post about nothing, pretty much.

School is starting soon and while it
excites and thrills me, I am wondering how I am going to keep all my plates spinning in the air without any crashing to the ground and splintering into many bits and pieces. Lately my job has been demanding more of my time than 20 hours and with the heartaches its been producing the job is on my mind even when I’m not “working”.
This can not continue.
I am aware that something needs to change.
Something needs to give.

I’m praying about it.
And continue to not have peace about it. And so if I don’t have peace
I must wait.

Praying that God grants you some peace while you are going through what-ever you can't speak about:)

I understand why you can't be open here....we have to remember this could can be read by anyone:) I too struggle with this and I have often thought about having a different blog. (but) I enjoy it here on homesteadblogger but I too wish I could be more open....


Blessings,

Ma

The Wagner Clan

My Husband (DH)-
Mr. Steady

My rock and biggest supporter. The glue that keeps the family sane. He is like deep, deep water- it takes a lot to see a ripple.

DD11- Our Maiden in Waiting- By the world's standard she's a 'tween'. By ours and the Lord's- this is the time of her years of preparation. She is eagerly learning what it means to keep a home and daily becomes more and more of a helper to her Mama.

DD8- Sassafras My Sassy middle child. She holds her own so sweetly and has such an empathetic heart. While real Sassafras is used for flavoring- She is that added spice of flavor to our family.

DS4- Mr. Conductor- The train aficionado in the family. He likes to think he's in charge and often is! He's also the biggest Oreo fiend in the family.
