We had meatball sub sandwiches for dinner at my house tonight. They were quite tasty. But between morning sickness and horrible (and embarrassing!) gas I don't feel I had the opportunity to enjoy them much.
At least I won't be tempted by leftovers, since everything I cooked was eaten. And by cooked, I mean threw in the crockpot. You know, the frozen meatballs and canned sauce. Ah, the good life.
I'm struggling to update this frequently, as I would like to do. I feel like I don't quite have a handle on my life these days, as my dishes are never all done, my house is never very tidy, and I don't get as much reading done as I would like. Aside from the daily tasks, there are other bigger decisions looming that I won't discuss here.
It's always interesting to see the twists and turns life takes. In striving to follow the Lord's will for our lives, J and myself will prayerfully consider a decision, research all of our options, spend countless hours discussing pros and cons, and then finally choose a course of action. Then, the following day, the Lord will somehow reveal to us that, oops, we chose the wrong one. So, let's start over with the decision making process as we slowly eliminate options and others become available to us.
It's feeling a bit like an exercise in patience right now, striving to do my very best to follow the Spirit after studying things out in my mind, only to be told I came to the wrong decision. Well, I'm sure we'll learn, and I have faith that the Lord will provide for our needs.
As for right now, I'm going to bed. Because I feel lousy. And I'm a little depressed that I got less out of enrichment than I had hoped. Oh, well. There will be others.

Well, Tom said he liked your meatballs, so even if you didn't get much enjoyment out of them, he sure did :) Love ya!
Good luck Emily! It is really hard when you feel inspired to go down a certain path, only to feel inspired a few months later to go down a different path. But I do feel that those paths and the perspective we gain on them are crucial to our development. Sometimes important decisions are made when we think we are headed in a certain direction, but then we go into another. Hope this makes sense. Maybe it doesn't.
I wish I had gotten more out of the RS activity, too. It was nice to play with my purse, though.
