So much to think about...

It is better to be kind, than to be right...
A friend of mine posted this a couple days ago on facebook, and I have been thinking a lot about that. I like to be right, a lot... I guess we all do. I don't think I am any worse than anyone else, and I don't have a problem with listening to anyone else's opinions or feelings about any subject. I hope that is how people perceive me...

Anyway, many things have gone through my head today. Do I emotionally "poke" people? Do I unintentionally hurt people's feelings by the opinions I have, and the need to voice them? I have been praying for wisdom in this, and with a friendship that has gone sour for all the wrong reasons. I feel like it's all just really bad communication. I really care about this friend. In fact I love her a lot, and her thoughts of me matter to me more than I let on. I am not sure if they should, but they do. When we started our friendship, we connected really easily and quickly. It doesn't seem that way now, unfortunately, and I am not quite sure how to repair it. The most recent issue was not even mine, and I would not have even known about it if it wasn't for another friend who she told about it, telling my husband... ARGH! I HATE hearing things like this third hand, and I wish she would have just come to me so we could talk about it. I have asked her to do this if there was ever an issue that she had with me, but for some reason she must not be comfortable with that. What do I do? How do I proceed? I just don't know.
Right now I am taking time to pray about it, and seek God's wisdom in it. I am reading his word, and thinking about it throughout the day, and just really talking it over with Him. I just can't wrap my head around why this was such a big deal. And I feel that if she doesn't talk to me about it, I cannot really know what is going on.

I guess we will see. And I will continue to pray, and seek God.

Anyway, we are moving on Friday, and the packing job is probably the worst I have ever seen, but I don't want to be moving, so I am doing it petulantly. Life throws some curve balls every now and then, doesn't it?

My stomach has gotten so fat, I hate it completely. It used to be one of my favorite body parts, cuz I never gained weight there, and it was always flat. Not anymore! Three babies later, and after this last one, it's not coming off as easily. I don't know if that is an age thing or what, but I need to get my hormones checked, but I have no health insurance. That won't be happening anytime soon! lol... Oh well, God is so good no matter what is happening in my life, and with my body, and I have asked Him to help me with both, so we will see. :)

I am going to go get on the treadmill now and try to finish up cleaning the kitchen. Hopefully will get everything done before Kyle, Gracen and Payton get home from church. I have taken tonight and last week off, I have just needed it. I had not missed one day of church since forever ago, so I think it was okay.

C-ya!
