My Husband came home last night after being away for 2 weeks for work.
While he was away I think I got into survival mode again and took care of some stuff around the house....me and my projects!
I even bought a whole ton of wood pellets for the stove in the kitchen and had the kids unload and stack them properly.
I also bought a new car.....all by myself.
Needless to say he was surprised when I picked him up in it
The kids and I managed when he was gone, unfortunately it brings back memories for me, especially when there is so much to do and I am all alone trying to keep the family normal, whilst getting all of the kids where they need to be and trying to work.
Sometimes I think God allows these trips every few months to remind me of what I have already survived and to be grateful for the restoration of my Marriage.
We went apple picking today, all of us, which was really fun. I guess tomorrow after work I will be making pies and freezing them for the Winter.
There can be no testimony without a test. I am praying to go through this test and come out the other end with a new and better marriage then before.
