Defining the Spirit of Never Enough
8 hours ago
I'm still here and still looking at my blogs : )
Life is just really busy with cooking and cleaning and fire company and still trying to clean out my room back at the house. But I just want to let my readers know that I'm still around.

I was sitting on my porch today reading a book during a little bit of free time today and I heard a noise so I looked up and it was a tractor driving up main st. That's why I like living where I live.
The quite country life style that I love surrounds me here.
I like my home made bread, my green cabinets with the leaf handles and my neighbors who aren't afraid to say and act like Christians. I feel at home here even though it has only been a week. I love it here.
On a side note we have new members of the family!
This is Harry he is 2 years old.
And this is Rambo who is chewing on me as I type this. She is 4 months old.

Well here's the story. Tom went back to work on Monday and I realized (being used to animals or people always around) that it is extremely lonely by your self. So we adopted a kitten who is 4 months old and a big lap cat who is 2 years old. (he is the only one the kitten got along with) and I just absolutely love them! Needless to say we are still very busy.
On to other news...
I made my first loaf of bread in my new bread machine and I love it!
That's all for now.
God bless.

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
(Proverbs 3:5-10)

Between the apartment and fire company I am exhausted and the fire co picnic isn't till tomorrow! AH. *giggles* But I'm feeling good besides the massive amount of dishes and laundry that needs to be done because we are moving in on Sunday!!! I can't wait!
More coming soon!
Got 2 loads of laundry done. YAY!
This passage is how I feel today, I feel very loved.
Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
(Psalm 91:14)

About the birth control issue I have been fighting with my self again.
What do you do when you can't help but feel like a murder, but your husband insists on me taking it still? It's not that he is an un-godly man because he is not. He is just afraid that if we put it into God's hands I will become pregnant and we wont be financially ready. That I would not be able to stay home and that we will never buy a house. Honestly I understands how he feels and I respect him. But I really do not see the money issue. I will have insurance in October. So that is taken care of. I would breastfeed until the baby would eat solids ok got that. Cloth diaper. Got that. And gear and clothing from my shower (my family is BIG on showers) and from salvation army. I feel that we would be fine.
I would like real input from people on how expensive it really is. From frugal breastfeeding Christian women if you would be so kind. Becuase I know there are allot of lurkers on this site *giggles*
The money thing aside though, I truely believe that god would not give me a child if he thought I couldn't do it. I've prayed very hard about this and I truly believe it is the right thing to do. Any help would be greatly apreciated.

(Isaiah 55:12)
I like this one especially from just coming home from the cabin in the woods.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We will be in the apartment on Sunday!!! YAY!
The boat ride was so relaxing, we needed this. The boat that is. Dh is selling the Camaro that he bought years ago to fix up and never got around to it, so that should pretty much make up for the expenses on the boat. He also wants to sell his PlayStation! Simple living here we come!
Good night!
We had a GREAT time! We went fishing on the boat. DH loved it so much that today we bought one!! Slightly used with trailer for 500. It's very nice. We pick it up tomorrow and then we are going boating.
Wednesday and Thursday we will be finishing up the apartment! I'm so happy! And very very tired.

Are we at the cabin yet? No.
Our floor is done thank goodness! When we get back form the cabin we should be able to move in!!! AHHHH So excited.
On a darker note.
Last night my sister called me selfish because I have a genetic condition called EDS and I'm planning on having children. I think this is the most absurd thing in the world! If some one has high blood pressure in their family would they not have children because of it? NO. Every human carries some genetic defect. Allot are allot worse than mine, just because I know what that defect is does not mean I will pass it on. I have a one in four chance and honestly if I were to pass it on it would not be as bad as me because DH doesn't have this condition. (my mom and dad both had it slightly but didn't know it) Even if it was as bad; I would know how to deal with it. Grr. I can't help but be frustrated.
If every one got tested for every genetic defect they carried NO one would be haveing children...ever. I'm actually more worried about passing on something worse like Tasachts..*shivers* even though I have no family history.
But, the fact that she my own sister would think this. This condition is not a death sentence! It is a big part of my life and it made me stronger and have more character. But still I go back to the fact that my own sister thinks I shouldn't have children, she says she will adotp I want to some day too after I have my own because I want that feeling. That pregnancy feeling, and there for acourding to my sister I am selfsih.
Does this make any sence?

I hope every one had a great fourth of July. I didn't have any time to post yesterday so I'm posting good wishes today.
We here had a great time. It was very windy though. So I was busy chasing our canopy because it blew away! No one was hurt and it added a bit of excitement to the day and I'm pretty sure every one had a good time.
Dh and I are off today to finish the rest of the kitchen up so hopefully when we get back from vacation we will be ready to move in. I can't wait!
That's all for now. God bless!

I'm sorry I haven't been on I have been very busy, also my computer acts strangely when it is hot out and it was giving me problems.
Any way. Our whole bedroom is done! From paint on the walls to bedding on the bed it is done! We just have to iron the curtains. I am so happy! We have to paint the kitchen floor yet and move the stove and fridge in then we can move in! But it's not going to be for a week yet because this Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday we are going up to DH's Aunt and Uncles cabin. I can't wait!
I talked with DH about the birth control issue and he is just not keen on the idea and I must obey my husband. We will see what happens.
That's all for now! God Bless.
