So, I am much sunnier today. I do feel there is a slight pattern here. When I spend too much time at my mom's house, as much as I do love her, I feel a pull down there. Maybe it has something to do with cigerette smoke that lingers in the air and the 10 animals that live in the house! Once I spent a day in RC, I started feel much more optimistic. That is kind of how it has been working. I really just can't wait for the day when I have my own place here in RC and I don't have to be separated from my dogs and live through a suitcase. There will be a day.

oh chris. thank you for sharing how you are feeling. it's okay to be honest with us :)

i was thinking that you are kind of like me, when i looked at your two posts in a row. it's not like anything has changed in your circumstances between those two days, but your FEELINGS changed. and when your feelings are okay, you are okay.

sometimes, God wants us to rely on Him instead of our feelings. please call out to Him and remind Him of that on the days that you don't feel too hot, and it all seems too hard and not at all what you thought it would be.

:) still very proud of you. you are doing this!!! one day at a time.

i had a funny thought when i was reading your posts. well, not funny, exactly, but it struck me that you are in a situation where you are spending so much time thinking about what's going to happen to you that it kind of overwhelms everything else. maybe now is a good time to volunteer somewhere, to get your mind off of you and onto others. i think it might help you see how God IS taking care of you. and you never know. it could open some doors. just a funny thought...told ya :)

I hear what you are sayin, Carey. I agree. I start my tutoring job this week, and I know that will help my frame of mind. I also know volunteer is a good idea, but I don't know that I have the luxury of doing that when I am free loading off people right now;) I am planning on getting on the sub list this week, so hopefully that will help my self esteem and get me out there. I know God is taking care of me. You are right though, I do spend way too much time worrying!
