A bonus... NOT

So I get a call today from my hubby asking if I had looked at our checking account today.  No, not really why?  There was a deposit made in to it for eleven thousand dollars he says.  I laugh and say oh you mean eleven hundred, our stimulus check maybe?  No he says $11,000.  SAY WHAT!!  Obviously the government has made a mistake.. you should call some one about that but whoo whoo.. its there so its ours right?? LOL  Sigh.. noo.. it was his work.. they some how wired the wrong amount into our account and ya.. we have to give it back.. how honest of us.

I should take a screen shot because I can't image us ever having that much money move threw our account again lol.  Better yet I suggest we take a quick trip to Vegas and double it for them lol ya right.  Or they should let me keep it for putting up with long weeks as a single parent and a frustrated women, services rendered!!  It's in my account..so it's my money now!!  But no.. it goes back first thing in the morning. *bla*  I could really do some damage with $11,000.  But my son chimes in, now mom you know that if that was ours to keep  most of it would go to a pro-life charity or to church because after all mom who's money is it??.. yes it is all God's, if only for a few minuets it's lent to me lol.

We really are expecting our "stimulus package" tomorrow.  But we have promised each other to be "responsible" with it and put it aside so I can get the massive dental work I need done.  It won't be enough to cover all of it but it will be a good chuck and a start.  ugh but I also really need a  new washer and dryer.. you know those nice front loaders,triple capacity, move mountains and, come in green one. (I can dream).

The kicker is, I don't have work tomorrow and neither does hubby.  He has a rain day in Philly and I am not  needed because my client has a doctor appointment.  A day we are both sitting around, not making money.. and can't be together : (  Well, at least I will get some things done around the house and if it's not raining here, some yard work. 

 MAN.. $11,000.. I could hire a maid and a lawn boy!  Maybe I should buy a lottory ticket tomorrow?

(you know I am just kidding.. I don't gamble)

Just being quiet for now

I know its been awhile.. prob wondering whats been going on lol and yes that weekend was THAT good (ears still ringing).  Maybe that is why I have been a bit down and bummed out.  I try not to let it get to me, try not to focus on it and to keep looking forward to the next homecomings.   Kids and work and the house should be enough to keep me busy.  Thinking of planting some seeds for a garden soon.. if it would stay warm and not so wet.  But anything I am in just a quiet mode for now.  Oh I have lots to say, and have been doing some things I need to blog about but for now I think I need to be still and in prayer.  I need to get back into a discipline.. for my spiritual health, mental and physical too.  Know what I mean??

Felt the Earth move under my feet...

At 4:30 in the morning I was dreaming about my man... that shaking I thought *blush* was part of the dream.   I didn't even know we had an earthquake until I got in the shower and heard the DJ on my radio talking about it.  But I know people who were woken up and were shocked badly.   After all you don't expect to have earthquakes in MO!  Sure they talk about the possibility but its been forever since we actually had one that you could feel.

I did feel a tiny bit the second one later in the morning but it really was of no consequence.  I don't think I want to find out what a BIG one is like... ugh this is why I don't live on the west coast!

Anyway, hubby is going to be home very soon now and the Only Earth moving I want to experience is in the bedroom hehehe.

T minus 10 hours... Mary's going to get some

9;00 p.m. tonight, Josh is going to  barely be able to get out of the airport parking lot before getting attacked by his wife. : )

I am on the verge of going bonkers.  I told my hubby last week he HAS to come home this weekend.. no if ands or buts.  It's only been a few weeks but it feels like months.  And that book my friend gave me called Red Hot Monogamy didn't help lol only made it worse for me.  That is not a book to be reading when your spouse is out of town lol.

All week we have been doing this big build up, sending dirty texts to each other, among other things I shall not repeat *gig like a school girl*  Saturday we are have dinner reservations at this French restaurant and winery and a room booked with extend check out time and a king size bed with chocolate and wine.  Oh ya this weekend is purely about one thing.  Ha ha aint no shame in that, we are married lol.

Oh ya.. the kids might get to see him for a minuet too.  And if I can hold off some family drama till Monday I am going to have an awesome time.

10 hours to go..

Feeling Blessed

I just have to write an entry about God's faithfulness and praise him for all he is doing.  By the skin of my teeth my electric was able to avoid disconnection.  I was stressing over it, because I didn't think I would have the money untill Friday to go towards the bill and the disconnection date was yesterday.  Ofcourse I could of and should of asked for help with it but um maybe it was pride or just knowing how everyone else's funds are low too I couldn't bring myself to.  I called the electric company Monday to see about making an arraignment (I hear ppl do it all the time) and ask if they could wait till Friday when I could pay the bill in full... but who ever answered in INDIA (don't get me started about that) was not very helpful on that front and said I didn't qualify (maybe he just didn't understand what I was trying to say cuz I sure had a hard time understanding him.. ugh again don't get me started).  So when the electric was still on yesterday and this morning I was happy for the bit of grace.  I checked my bank account balance before I left for work this morning and very happy to see my pay check was deposited early!!!  And there for I was able to pay on my bill, in the nick of time too... they said the order for disconnect was already out in the field.

See it's little things like this that I see his hands on, not just the big miraculous.  For some it maybe just a coincidence, for me it is my God taking care of me and my family's needs.. on his time table ofcourse.

Also this morning I got a chance to call into a radio program and comment on the clip of Oprah they had played in regards to what some are calling her new age church (google it or look it up on youtube or godtube).  I was commenting on the fact that she said faith and God, is a feeling that you don't have to believe in one particular book or theology but on your feelings towards a higher power.  My comments are you can not base your belief system on feelings or interpit the Bible on feelings.. because feelings change day to day, they are inconsistent and can be wrong.  But God is The same yesterday, today and Forever, he never changes.  Sometimes I don't FEEL like I am forgiven, and there was a time when I FELT I needed to do good works to enhance my salvation or earn my way to heaven but I now know that despite how I felt, what Jesus Christ did on the cross paid it all in full and I can not add to what he did by doing good deeds or take away from what he did when I fall short... IT IS FINISHED.  His grace is sufficient!! 

Reason

I cry every time I see this video because it is so my story! This was me and this is what Jesus did for me (and you)!
