Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Thursday afternoon? The weather is a lot better than it was last night. Holy heavy rain, thunder and lightning. Mom was awake with the pups for almost all of it while Mark slept through it all. I think it finally stopped around 3 am. I got maybe 5 hours of sleep if I am lucky. Looks like it will be an early to bed kind of night tonight. I am sure it will be pretty quiet as well seeings how Mark is mad at Mom. I can't seem to win so I am no longer going to bother. I can't say anything right apparently so I am just going to keep my mouth closed and even though I will want to say something, I will not. Mom is trying so hard to make sure that everything for this house is done when it needs to be and I seem to be the only one taking it seriously on this end. Mark is a procrastinator in everything except for work and playing his video game with his brothers. Every thing else seems to take a back seat. There were some specific things that needed to get done today, well before Friday and today is Thursday. Mark is the only one who can do it because I can't and don't have the authority to speak to the people that he needs to so with him still going to that customer site every day, he is not able to do any calls there and he gets home to late to do anything after hours....that leaves the weekend which nothing can be done then so now I am not sure what is going to happen and Mom frankly said that I didn't give a damn either at this point. He didn't say anything to me when he left this morning for work but he called me from the road. He proceeded to tell me that I made him angry and after that I had no chance of responding because he hung up on me. Childish behavior in my eyes. You see Mom stressing out, being frustrated at everything lately but I want you to know that I will be just fine. I will be able to handle things just like I always do. Please don't worry about me. I will continue to talk to you and I know you will be right by my side so I know I am in good hands my sweet precious son.
Last night was quiet. Meme called and we spoke for about 20 minutes. She is just as stressed out and frustrated at everything. I guess Bob is suppose to have done a few things and he isn't doing them so it is making her angry. Seems to be the thing going around right now. Meme said she could hear the anger in my voice and I told her the same. I sure hope that things start looking up for us all pretty soon. Time is ticking and every day is 1 day closer to the move. We have dates now that are locked in. The only thing left to do is pay deposits and balances at the end plus book our flights. Guess that will be done next week. Then it will really be real. We have around 75 days left before this new adventure begins for 4 of us and then Grandpa and Debbie will join us 5 months later. I think Mom is ready for this but I am really not sure. Right now I am waiting for maintenance to show up so that they can do a walk through of our apartment. I got the call yesterday that they would be here today. It was scheduled between 1-3 pm and it is now 1:42 pm. They will be here soon. Not sure what they are going to do but I will be finding out shortly. Not much else for updates for you I am afraid. Nothing from Aunt Beck lately. Her first week in Italy is coming to a close though. That went really fast! I am sure she is enjoying her time there! Mom will update you when I get new news.
Your new candle has been lit for most of the day already. Mom did a bit of housework as well. I dusted, vacuumed the floors, straightened things out, paid several bills online etc.... later it will be all about relaxing. I think I may have time to do a bit of studying too. That will be nice. If I don't get to it today then I will definitely have time tomorrow because nothing is planned for Mom to do. I also did the grocery shopping. I have been busy today. It is now time to get ready for the pups to go nuts and bark like crazy. I will have a headache after that for sure....lol. Mom will write to you again tomorrow. I miss you so much and I love you even more. To the moon and back and all the way around the world. You will forever be my hero and the wind beneath my wings. You live in my heart, mind, body and soul. have fun tonight while Mom gets some solid sleep. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. I will whisper to you later so smile for me and I will smile to you. Until tomorrow comes....good night and sweet dreams later.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
Here is today's prayer:
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus. Philippians 2:3–5, NIV
Lord our God, we come before you in the great name of Jesus Christ. We thank you that while we are still living on earth you give us hope and joy in this great name. May something be born in us through your Spirit to make us of one mind with Jesus Christ. In all our relationships with others may we learn that it is better to submit in patience than to dominate, better to serve than to rule, better to be the weakest than to bring pressure to bear on others. Give us this attitude. Let this attitude arise in many so that they may be Christians not only in their words and thoughts, but Christians at heart, loving their neighbors and at one with the Savior on every step of the way. Amen.
