What was it?
What was it about this week that made it such an uphill climb? Early on in the week I found myself physically, emotionally, and mentally drained! Monday, I understood. We had hosted guests for the Super Bowl. I went in to work unexpected and it was just MONDAY. Then, Tuesday came and I felt like I was having another Monday. And on Wednesday, things really deteriorated. That was the day that an controversial issue at work came up. I stood up for what I believe it right and some others basically told me to shut it. Decisions had been made. I continued to buck the issue and now find myself up thinking about it in the middle of the night. Argh! This has made me realize that perhaps I've had on my rose colored glasses regarding my job. I guess that's for another post.
Thursday was relatively uneventful, short of my oldest kiddo asking if we could go visit his friends in Tipton. Heartbreaking!! And then today, I have a "client" call me rather miffed. He e-mailed at the end of the day to remind me he is not happy. His e-mail was literally 2 lines, one of which was "Not happy!"
On a bright note, I have had an enjoyable evening with my little guys tonight.
I'm not sure what it was about this week, but I sure hope it doesn't repeat itself next week. I don't think I could take it.

Hi Marla- I was just reading something about "If God leads you to it, God will lead you through it!" I have had work weeks like that, they are no fun. Good for you for standing up for what you believe is right. Even if you are out-voted or ignored, you know you tried to do the right thing. As for Jeremiah wanting to visit his friends in Tipton... well baseball season is around the corner, we will all have to meet up at a River Bandits game.
I meant to comment about your last post on covetting others lives. I so know what you mean. Eric and I have had a string of sort of crazy, crappy, stress-inducing things come up of late, and I have found myself doing the same thing, covetting someone else's supposedly calm and easy life. I keep telling myself that God uses these times in life to help us develop character more like Him and His Son. I think I am a slow learner :) Take care!
