Have you every had any of these weeks? Man alive my grandmother is dieing, then my husband was told on Tuesday that the owner of his company sold so he doesn't know if he has a job yet of not with the new company so in limbo, right after I get off the phone with him about this the front window breaks, then today get a call my aunt was rushed to the er with another blood clot and not doing good. I'm also the end of a lot of peoples frustrations lately and have been snapped at by so many people I finally broke down today. I so need to get away well really me and the hubby need a night out but then again don't have anybody to watch the kiddos! What do you do when you are having weeks like this?? Thanks and could use your prayers as well!

What can I do next?

at some point this weekend, take the family to a park & just let the Peace of the moment help soothe your soul. Living in KC, you have lots of outdoor options. By taking this downtime, I believe you'll feel better. Prayers to you!

when I have weeks like this - I go to my room - and pray...i pull out my Bible or I just sit in quiet solitude and pray...

I'm sorry your grandmother is dying...i wasn't able to go see my Grandmother before she died and when she did - we couldn't afford the plane ticket to go see her...she lived in South Dakota and plane tickets there were NOT cheap...we had just started our cash only lifestyle and hadn't built up the savings...sucked...

Instead of having someone watch the kiddos - put them to bed early - and spread a blanket out on the living room floor and talk, play Scrabble or whatever - but carve out the time for the two of you...it will make a world of difference!!!

I will keep you in my prayers!!!

I'm in the same situation right now. I want to curl up in the fetal position BUT hubby and I are supposed to go visit my dad for a quiet wknd away from work. My mood is SO bad that it doesnt even sound good to go anywhere. I'll pray for you if you pray for me ;)

I am not one to talk. I'm terrible at managing worry. I play things over and over in my mind. I'm trying to force myself to take up actively thinking about what I will think about. I will read a book, read the word, pray, and if there is something that I can change or make better I will.

Was it a daycare child that broke the window?
