So, here I am, beginning once again.
Life really has been a struggle with so much financial stress on my husband and I since the summer of last year. Then it finally hit rock bottom a few months ago.
Except for the love and grace of God and the supporting grace of some very, very special women in my life, I don't know what would have happened to me and my sweet husband.
God interceded by placing this unlikely group of ladies right smack in the middle of my situation and they have helped thru monies, prayers and love to get us out of the "pit" and back to climbing out of the deep, dark hole we were in.
I can never, ever, thank God enough for what He has done for us. I pray we are on the road to recovering and overcoming our dire situation that we were in.
Nothing that I have done in my human form and mind deserves the rich blessings that I have been receiving. I find that I am actually going to sleep at night and getting rest, not constantly waking up and worrying and wondering what is going to happen to us!!
We still have a long way to go, however, not near as far as it was 6 months ago.
Since I quit smoking in 2003 I have put on weight. A couple of times I got some of it off but then invariably winter arrived and I put on the proverbial "7+" pounds. This past year was no exception, so, I am back to watching what I put in my mouth and trying to get back to an exercise program.
The first 4 months of this year has been hard on me both financially and physically. I am having more problems with my hips and left leg. I know a lot of the physical problem is from the extra weight I am carrying around.
I want so desperately to get back down to around 130 lbs and maintain it there. It will take a lot more work on my part but I am in prayer that getting some of the financial stress off of me that I will be able to move forward with the weight loss and then weight control.
Bearing my soul here it seems.
If you don't know God please let me know as I would love to introduce you to Him. He can do for you what He has done for me and the best part is that He wants to!!
