Randomness at 3am

Cailin cried out at 1:30. I got up to check on her and now I can't go back to sleep. I had started a prayer when I went to bed at 10:30 and I fell asleep in the middle. So I finished my prayer and here I am. Things I was praying about:

  • Our troops that are protecting us while we sleep in our nice warm bed or sit at our computers at 3 am
  • A job. I am sending in my resume to two different companies and I pray that I can get one of them. Both of them sound like I would really enjoy them.
  • I was praying and continue to pray for a fellow blogger. She had a baby yesterday evening and the baby has pneumonia in her lungs. Please pray for Harper and her family.
  • Praying for friends, new ones to come into my life. It has been difficult being in a new place. It has been hard to find new friends since I am staying home. I miss the days at the big blue house when our home was full of folks over for that latest BBQ that was going on. I seem to have taken those days for granted and now not having them is hard. I continue to miss everyone back in Arkansas and some days wish we were back. We have only been in KY for 4.5 months and being home with Cailin is something I never thought possible. It has been wonderful. I guess I have a bad case of the winter blues. It has been so cold here that we have not been able to get outside and it is all catching up with me. I enjoy the fact that we are so close to Matthew's brother, SIL, and their son. Our nephew and Cailin are only 3 months apart and they have become so close. It is really great to see them playing and growing up together.
  • For my family. Since the loss of my Pa, I continue to pray for strength for my Nanny. They were married for 63 years and she misses him so. Pa was such a wonderful man to all who knew him. If he liked you, you knew it. If he didn't, well you knew that too.
  • And to end all the randomness and by no means was this a prayer but I was thinking about how badly I need a hair cut!!!

Good morning to you all. I'm going to try and catch a couple hours before Cailin is ready to start her day. Love to all.

Yes, you've had some major adjustments the past few months. Good luck with the job opportunities. Western KY plus the cold weather are enough to depress anybody! At least you're closer to springtime than I am:-) Hang in there, gal!
