Not much time

I haven't had time to blog.
R has new job, starts on Tuesday.
I have so many things to get done on my to do list before starting school in a week.
We have one vehicle, so I had to make a schedule that I stick to strictly. I have had to get littles going to bed much earlier.
I will be rising at 430am instead of 530am this year. One hour is a big deal. I will be okay, I just need the little boys in bed early and my older kids need to be quiet all lights out by 1000pm and no later.

Tax free weekend

We surely appreciate tax-free weekend at our household! It helps us have the ability to purchase more needed items than we would if we had to pay taxes on them.
I listened to our local news on Friday. A politician said we should do away with tax-free weekend. He claimed it is bad for the economy.Less money the state could collect. I disagree, I would not shop. I only buy what I need as I need it. Between sales and tax free weekend, we are able to get more school supplies earlier. I don't understand why it seems okay to give welfare, but not okay to give tax breaks.
I am thankful for tax-free weekend while it last!

Wednesday Blessings

God cares about the small stuff, I need to trust HIM with the bigger stuff. I can not understand myself. I hearty pray for others often and I see God move. I know He is real and true. When it comes to myself, I wait rather late to ask God for even little things. Tuesday I said a short small prayer asking God for fruit.  Wednesday I had lots of strawberries, blackberries,cherries,peaches,nectarines, grapes, and blueberries to wash clean,chop,freeze and eat. We are still consuming the fruits of our blessings. I also have some cucumbers from someone's garden.
I really asked and believe God will give my husband a job. We are at the end of our rope either God moves or we lose our home. We have no other resources, no savings money, I am still trying to sell our old home school books on Amazon.com not yet enough to make a mortgage payment. When I was out job hunting earlier in the week I overheard someone talking about welfare or some other type of program, I don't know about that or even feel comfortable going that route. I also don't want my children to be homeless. I must believe and keep working hard on posting and uploading all of these books.
Another blessing, I found money in some old clothes, I packed away to take to Goodwill, and was able to fill my gas tank to full!
God is good all the time, All the time God is good!
