Feeling Lighter

2007-04-27

I'll get the bad over with first.  For once, the bad just isn't so bad like before.  My husband's mom is in the hospital about her heart.  They did some kind of dye test to see if she has a blockage, but she won't know anything until tomorrow.  She thinks they are going to have to put another stent in.  She already has a couple of them and a pacemaker. His sister just recently went to jail (serving about 2 months for traffic stuff) and was sentenced in another county yesterday to serve about 6 ½ more months for the same stuff.    Because of all this, hubby is a bit testy at times.  I try not to let it bother me, but I still get sucked into the same stupid arguments at times.  He's still working though and apparently still likes it.  If he stays long enough, they've told him they will send him to school for certification.  He likes that idea.  It would be nice if he would follow this job all the way through for once.  I think he would surprise himself. 

Now, the awesomely good!  I'm being promoted effective July 1 with a REALLY nice raise.  More than I've ever made in my life.  I'm so excited it's not funny.  Walking on cloud 9 really.  No telling what might happen next.  Thanked God profusely for this.  I'm still talking with God daily and looking forward to church this Sunday.  I'm finding that the difficult moments aren't feeling as difficult and the good feels absolutely wonderful.

I don't want to lose this feeling.   I feel like a tremendous weight has been lifted off my shoulders.  What's next?

Sad on the bad and wonderful on the good.
