Crossing the Lines

I feel like I have crossed every imaginable and socially acceptable line this week. I have had to be more honest with some people that I love than I have ever had to be. With some friends, two of my children, my parents, and my brother. It's not that I am dishonest with them but sometimes there are things that you wonder if you should say, do you really go there? I was left with no choice...I went there. God gave me strength throughout the week but last night I was completely emotionally exhausted. I am glad the "big" parts are over but that in no way means we are done. The road to healing has only just begun. In some cases it's more "counseling" not that I am a professional at this but I listen and somehow that helps. In others, it's advising on taking the next right and "grown up" steps. Also, rebuilding trust with another. The last is going to be an ongoing process of tough love and healing, I can't do it for him but I will do my best to help. The road ahead is bumpy but as one of my favorite verses says, Not by might, not by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of Hosts, Zechariah 4:6. This is how I want to and try to live my life. I unfortunately don't always succeed...guess I will just keep trying.

Busy Week Ahead...But A Good Week

To sum it all up, the big projects are done! YAY! Now it's time to do the little things, just the usual stuff, do a bit of cooking for Hilary's party, visit with the family that's in town (including my most awesome niece), get my hair done, and hopefully relax! Should be a great week!
