Time is just something that we assign. You know, past, present, it's just all arbitrary. Most Native Americans, they don't think of time as linear; in time, out of time, I never have enough time, circular time, the Stevens wheel. All moments are happening all the time.

So the training schedule is out sent in a email with the title "the road to war" or something of that nature but i suppose the title says it all. I sense the stress and have for the past few days, its not like we didnt know but i guess now we know know. (sigh)...Tapping foot, drinking coffee, tapping foot some more , mind walking in circles till like a dog chasing its tail will eventually just stop. Oh what will i do..

Marks quote well its actually a mormon scripture but a very good one "oh be wise what more can i say" yes be wise , do wise things with my time , enjoy my time, trust in the plan and know its a good one. Be wise. Lean not on my own understanding.

So the mexican nationals were at my door at 6 am waiting to look at shoes and furniture, and i had my yard sale and it was alot of work, i sold alot , gave away alot more, and set aside half the profits for a big project i want to launch for the holiday season. Its going to be my biggest most ambitous idea yet and its going to require help. I hope people will get on board and wont think iv gone overboard.
After the sale we went out to eat and ran to get yet another pair of shoes for my skateboarding son who wears out a pair of shoes about every 2 months if not sooner, and then outside play, baths, and a movie, laid out church clothes, and responded to emails etc. The day is done.
Let me give praise to you Lord that tonight i go to sleep with my kids , my husband , my dogs , all under one roof , safe and sound and healthy, and that is the greatest peace i could ask for.
Im attending a new church service on post tommorow for the first time and i hope it is a better fit for our family than where we are currently attending. It had to be done not that our church was bad but the kids were not able to attend age appropriate classes and i really want sage and winter to have that and meet other kids who they can come together in fellowship with. Ill probably never get over crossroads at Fort Benning , ill probably spend the rest of my life looking for another Sarah seeking me out with a smile :) but as i have learned we can never step into the same river twice.
In other news my son is turning 13 this week, where has the time gone he was just born yesterday. I can remember pushing him in the buggy at Target when he was about 6 months old and knocking over an endcap of stuff because i was so in love with his little face he was all i could look at , everything else was in the way :) I still love looking at his face and i cant wait to see where this life takes him.
Goodnight all.
S.O.T.D.
I lift up my eyes to the hills- where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. Psalm 121: 1 & 2
