February, February~

Hey, y'all!! Long time no speak!! :)

While I sit here pondering what to say in my monthly blog, I am watching "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" besides dreading to read "Light In August" by William Faulkner. I'm taking a Faulkner / Joyce college course, so there's tons of reading and little time for a better social life, knitting, and writing. Oh, I have time to write papers for classes, but when it comes to wanting to finish the final two books of my "Strange Stuff" series--Olivia and Allison's stories--I never have time. Even on weekends, especially the last few weekends.

Why don't I have time on weekends? My family and I are officially in lambing season, and it's been a lot of hard work but a lot of fun so far this season!! :) So far we've had at least 14 healthy lambs. Two more ewes are yet to have their babies. God willing, they will have them soon and maybe I'll get to see some more being born this weekend. That's always exciting.

Since I last wrote in here--a LONG time ago it feels like, I had just ended Christmas vacation. Sad. But anyway, ha, I've been reading a lot of books, so it wouldn't do any good to tell you how I've been on the same two books I've been writing for two months now or the list of books I've read since you've last read this blog. I am going to say that lately in my life I feel like I'm making some definite life-changing decisions where God is always there helping me along. I don't want to grow up, but I think I need some change-of-heart methods. Methods to change some issues deep in my heart. Personal issues that I just want to announce on here apparently. But I know and trust that with God, I can do anything and will be able to do anything. Please continue to pray for us. Also, please pray for more healthy lambs if it be God's will, and that my family and I will make God-pleasing life decisions. I hope to get to writing for fun soon, because I miss it so much. It really stinks logs (decided to throw that in, ha) when you can't do one of your passions. Hopefully this weekend, I will be able to catch up on piano playing and knitting and spending some time with family and animals. Then, after this week, God willing, I will get to writing again. It's so frustrating, but I trust that God knows what He's doing to wherever He's leading me and all of us. :) Each one of us is a child of God. Don't ever forget that. :)

Well, I better go study some more. :( Everybody be safe, healthy, happy, and upbeat!! Love God with all your heart.

Talk to y'all later!! Ta!! :)
