Life is throwing us a bit of a curve ball...
First of all, I may be dealing with a bit of depression. We don't know for sure, and I haven't bothered going to the doctor about it yet, but it could either be that or stress. I'm beginning to not care and at the same time care too much about certain things, I've been getting snappy, and I've noticed that my disposition has been... well... just plain not me. I feel like I'm acting ugly and I hate it... which does nothing to help the situation of course (haha). Anyway, I'm blessed in so many ways with the understanding husband I have, and the daughter that God gave us (who sometimes drives me crazy, but in a good way...). If it weren't for them, I'm sure things would have been much worse.
The other issue involves our livelihood. I'm not sure what I can all go into here, however, we (personally) are fine. The things we have been doing since shortly after getting married means we will not be overly affected by what needs to happen. Unfortunately, other family will, and we do NOT like being the ones who HAVE to deliver the news (believe me when I say that... we are basically being forced into a situation here). It's gonna hurt. We need prayer in how to do this and that the others will be responsive... in a good way. Believe me when I say I'm calling up a lot of my previous schooling in 'presenting' a business plan... because that's what it's gonna take. Change is good, right?
On a good note, hubby and I are gonna be able to spend some much needed alone time together. Yup, the munchkin is going to her grandparents tomorrow evening for a few hours (ok, technically she'll just be staying there since we are there for lunch anyway) and we'll go see Monsters vs. Aliens in the theatre together, and go to a nice restaurant (which we recently found out we cannot do with her due to loud noise, too many people and other various things which made her cranky). I'm hoping we'll be able to discuss other things than the business issues... although that is going to be weighing heavily on our minds until we can settle things. We both just need the break from things to spend time together.
Anyway, like I said, a lot has been going on. We recently moved my hubby's sister into her new house! She finished the paperwork yesturday, was handed the keys, and now is the proud new owner of her own place. We spent the better part of the day moving most of her things from her rental place to her house. I hope to help her get things organized, as it's gonna take awhile. Thankfully she didn't unpack all her stuff from her move over here (from a few provinces over) half a year ago. I think she knew she'd have to move again.
Anyhoo, I'm tired, and I think my bed is calling my name. Can you hear it too? Or is my brain melting from exhaustion (and munchkin wanting to eat way earlier than normal the last couple of days)? I'd say the latter. G'night everyone!

Sounds like you have alot on your heart and mind. Keep praying, and turn it over to Him:) I will be thinking of you. Hang in there!
Hugs, love and prayers to you, sweetie!
Oh my. It sounds like you have a lot going on right now. I'm sure that stress is probably what's giving you many of those feelings of depression, it's been known to happen to me more than once. Make sure you're getting enough sleep, and B vitamins, and protein, and all that jazz. :-)
And congrats to your sister-in-law on the new home! How fun!
It's hard successfully juggling as many balls as you do and still manage to remain upbeat. Get treatment for your depression if you need it and don't feel bad about it. In the meantime, it's great to see that you have support from your hubby and family to help you ride through these times.
Whew....take your naps, take your breaks, and get your rest. I think it is beautiful you went out just the 2 of you to the movies and dinner. Do it often!
