Stop the World I want to get OFF



I cannot  believe  that  it  is a month  since  I  last  had  the  time  to sit  on my computer, I  have  so missed  reading everyone's  blogs,  it is  like  I have  lost  touch  with  all my friends.......  which  I  have......  it  will take  me  some  time  to  catch  up,  but  at  long  last  things  are  slowing  down  and things  are  back  to normal........  well  as   normal  as  my  life  can  be.

Financial  year  is  over,  with going on our new  computer  system  in June last  year,  this  was  our  first  financial  year  end  and  it was  tough,  it  was  rough  and  it  was  dirty......  I  feel  like  I  have  gone  10 rounds  with  Mohamed  Alie,  and  had  both  my ears, eyes  and  tongue  bitten  off  my Mike  Tyson,  and  just  for  good  measure  have  been worked  over  by the  Gladiators............  and  that  doesn't  begin  to explain  how  touch  it has  been.

I have  been  spring  cleaning,  I reached  a  stage  when  I could  not  live  any more  with  all  the "Ex's"  personal things,  and  so  I  advised  his  lawyer  he  had  21  days  to  collect.......  surprise.......  he  didn't  and  so  I packed,  and  packed  and  packed,  he  had  3  boxes  of  shoes........  he  had  more  shoes  than  me.........  he  had  15  bags  of  clothes................15  bags..............  and  with  every load  I  carried  outside  it  was  like a piece  of the  hurt  dropping  off.

I had  an  18th  party  for  my daughter,  planned  an  outside party  under  the  trees,   with  umbrella's  it  looked stunning  but  before  I  could  take  pictures  and  10 minutes  before  the  25  guests  arrived...........  the  heavens  opened...............  so  it became  an inside  party...........  oh my goodness..................  this  was  a  big  one  for me  i  had  to allow  people  to eat  in my lounge.................  in my  lounge...........  on my  couches...............actually eat.............
Then  it  was  Easter,  and  all the  preparation  that  goes  around  that..................
Then  I  went  back  to  court...............................................................................
And  then  I  did  a  Woman's  tea ........................
And  now that   I  have  my life  back,  and  some  time  on my  hands with  only  the  lessons  for  the  Holiday  club  in  June,  and the organisation for the Woman's  retreat  in  August, the painting  of  Kayla's  room,  a  Sunday  sermon,  and a  cell  group  lesson  to  do.....................   I  will be  completely  up  to date..................
 Will be  checking  up  on you  all in the  next  few  days.................

  2. I'm exhausted reading this!!! Actuallly my life rivals this a bit too so I very well understand. It's hard being pulled in so many emotional and physically demanding ways. I see an end too maybe, but at the same time it will probably take all summer and that is my beloved time of the year.

    Hope it all stays calm for you now to enjoy your life!

  3. Oh don't we all go through these cycles of life. I feel like I'm in my own whirlwind. Then you don't want to tell anyone because they just say suck it up and do it anyhow...good luck! I'll be cheering you on.

  4. So many bloggers are saying the same thing..no time to blog! Me too! It's good to have you back and it sounds like you are in the groove to being a strong woman...way to go and throw out ex's junk. I can't believe he left all that. Well, it's a new life for you and I know you can do what you put your mind too! Don't forget to stop and smell the roses!

  6. Dear Karen,

    Oh, I'm so sorry to hear how rough it's been on you! I'll be praying that you can get some rest now. Sometimes life doesn't go the way we thought it would, does it??

    Thanks for stopping by today. Those videos just brought tears to my eyes. I can only imagine how hard things must be for them.

    I'm so glad the Lord is there for us helping us through the hard times.
    Take care.♥

  7. My goodness, my goodness!!! What a time you've had in your computer absence. Did I already say "my goodness".

    I think you're on your way to becoming 'normal'...oh wait...15 bags of clothes and 3 bags of shoes? Insanity. Okay, maybe not insane for you and me...but for your ex yessiree!

  8. Wow! You have been super busy! Normal is over-rated anyway.

    I'm so glad to hear that you are experiencing a little bit of healing. I pray the Lord will continue to mend your wound. He promises to stay close to the brokenhearted, and He always keeps His promises.

    I hope you have a great upcoming week!
