I agree with both of you re. prayer! I have been listening more to Calvary Chapel on the radio (It is a group of churches around the country that broadcast their different pastor's messages)lately, couldn't do that right after the Bomb dropped as I was having a shaky faith moment, but anyway today I heard a message about how Jesus is God and so He is the Creator, and how He is holding everything in our universe together all the time. That we need to remember Jesus as not just the human man but the divine One who can do everything and anything all at once. I tried really hard to turn my situation over to Him, because who better to give that responsibility? Anyway as far as tonight goes, I did not contact my husband except to respond to his inquiry at 5:40 re. my C appointment, then I just sent a text telling him how well it went. Anyway, got home to hang with the D and S and I have gotten three more texts while he is bowling! I have gotten one or two on occasion but never three. The first asked what time our niece's Bball game is back in Iowa on Friday--my MIL suggested that we come up to watch it. So maybe he is interested in going with me? I just replied giving him the time and place of the game, and mentioned that I heard that niece had a first boyfriend (she is 16 this month), wow was she growing up! (She was an infant when my husband and I started dating) Anyway he then sent me a message telling me that he & a guy friend from work who bowls with him were going to get a beer after bowling. Normally I hate that bc that is when he used to hook up with her. But this time I replied back to be careful not to drink too much and drive but to have fun! He sent a reply re. the niece's boyfriend, as he had met him over the weekend when he went home for a visit. I just replied a brief thanks back for the info and again wished him fun at the bar with his buddies.Funny that he texted me 3 times when I didn't try to bother him at bowling at all. Plus the OW was there I am sure unless she miraculously quit the team after he ended it with her, so I am sure she noticed him texting me. Anyway I am not going to worry about that because it is out of my control. Off to work on finding a teaching job and other GAL activities! Luck to all!
