grannyskeeter's Journal

Haven't journalled for a while, but have a few extra minutes today. 

 Yesterday was a really good day.  We went to a family program at the treatment center where my son (JJ's dad) is living right now and it was a very good time.  Both my youngest daughter (17) and I were very impressed with the center, the residents we met, and what they were doing there.  We hope my son makes some life changes with their help.

 I am having some very major problems at work.  It has never been a good place to work, but lately it has been unbearable, and with the added stress of an infant in the household, I am going to begin applying at different places.  I know it is stressful to change jobs, but good benefits, better pay and possibly actually working somewhere where you were made to feel wanted would do a lot to decrease my stress, too.  A move would be horrible right now, so I am hoping for something here, but am applying other places and going to leave it to the Lord.

 Just the thought of taking the step to start applying has been a relief.  The last time the Lord had me do that it turned out my old place of employment cut everyone's hours drastically within months of my leaving and closed completely within about a year....it was definitely His timing!  So I guess just the fact that I feel like now is the time is saying something to me!  

I just hate the thought of a move when I just built this house, but I am open to His leading.  I have always liked change, too.  I could get used to the thought of warmer winters!
