The old man dog

On Saturday we had to take Rocky to the vet as he decided to partially rip odd a nail at 45 degrees....so as Donnie took Rocky....Jack and I waited in the car. I love this pic because he looks like some old man with a smirk on his face. Too funny.

The Journey...where am I going...

I don't know...that would be the answer to that question of "Where am I going".  Another day is just another dollar spent and earned.  Another day to get up, take of things, go to work, come home, take care of things, and go to bed.  I like my job most days...I enjoy the worship services at my church, I get to see my friends often, and I do enjoy where I live.

I just want more....I don't know what that is....but in time I'll learn; with God's help and guidance I will go where I need to be and be used the way I need to be used. Amanda's living in limbo land....waiting for the "next big thing".  In my heart of hearts I want to have children...but with every friend's pregnancy announced (1st, 2nd, or 3rd births)...my hope and dream sinks further and further.

I start to wonder is motherhood what God wants of me....and I'm scared to have the answer be "no". Letting go and let God they say...it's a heck of a lot easier to say than do....I just want more...praying for wisdom and guidance and the courage to do whatever "more" is.


We'll see where we go...

Vacation 2011 - Rest



Here's some pictures of Donnie and my trip on a 5-day cruise and 2 days at Treasure Island, FL.  Enjoy. The trip was great minus me getting a head cold...and we both got some greatly needed rest and relaxation.  Reality came too soon though...back to work and daily stresses and joys.
