Too busy lately

I have just been so busy lately....have you ever just been so busy you can't even slow down long enough to put your words together....well, I am and have been for awhile now. Life just keeps on coming whether I am ready or not.

My office is currently under construction and made me sick on top of everything else.

In September, we lost our 14 year old nephew, Brian, in a horrid car accident and I can't even put together the words to explain how awful that experience was to deal with and still haven't come to terms with it. He was 14, 30 days before his 15th birthday and bam, he's gone. I shake my head in disbelief and miss him every day....now today, we get the news the family can't bear to hear but another loved one's death is imminent. Grandma Melba, the last of our grandmothers....the rest have already passed on to the next life. We ask God to bless them and grant us all peace.

Someone said to me, "you all have already been through so much" and my response was "Yes, we have and thank God we somehow manage to get through it." Seriously I have no feasible explanation of how it is that any one person can go through as much as I have. If I don't laugh I would cry....but it makes me stronger each time and I honestly feel I can do anything and pray to God that He won't let the anything happen that I couldn't survive...my limit was encroached upon with Brian. That pain I wouldn't wish on anyone and I am aware that so many feel it. I'm not alone. That in itself gives me strenghth.
