Our Weekend

We were out of town this weekend. Went to Alabama to see Brad's parents. It is getting easier to make the trip now that our daughter is getting older. I never enjoyed traveling with a screaming baby. There's few things in this life that are worse than that.

While we were there, we got to see alot of cousins that we don't normally see. We went to lunch with about 20 family members to celebrate the birthday of one of Brad's cousins. It was nice except we went to a Chinese restaurant and Chinese food is my least favorite. I didn't complain though - I was just glad to be there!

We got to see Steven's wife and daughter (Steven is in prison, remember?). They came over to my mother-in-law's Saturday afternoon and visited and stayed for dinner. They seem to be doing pretty well. We didn't talk about Steven that much, although he was mentioned several times of course. Apparently he has hit the wall of "God let this happen to me, and I'm mad as hell about it." His wife is worried because the last letter he wrote was full of curse words and that is sooo unlike him. I suppose this is just a stage he has to go through. Their daughter turns 6 today, the first birthday her Daddy will not be there. I'm sure it was a hard day for all of them.

Brad is still waiting to hear about the job he interviewed for. Friday will be a month since he interviewed, and the man told him it would be a month before he made a decision. So we're just waiting. Waiting. Waiting. That's all we've done the last few months it seems. Wait on God. Wait on man. Wait on God some more.

I am praising God that my husband has been clean from porn for 9 months! That may be the longest he's ever been, I'm not sure. If it's not the longest, it's close. I try not to think about it too much, but sometimes I can't help but wonder if this is it, is it really over, or will he have another fall? There's no way for me to tell, that's for sure. I'm just giving him to You, God. I'm giving Him to You.

Well, I wish I had something else interesting to say, but I am literally about to fall asleep at the keyboard. (And it's only 9:30pm, I'm getting old)

I hope everyone had a great day, and I hope your marriage is stronger today than it was yesterday.
