Crazy days!

I know, "crazy days" is something we have all the time, so this is nothing new. - As someone said today, "we should call ourselves the 'Rising Above Home'" as we all have to rise above so much to actually make our Home work.

We're getting shorter staffed by the day, and the whole "changes" word is becoming more reality. - Freaky, but Fun! Yikes!

Today, on the other hand, has been one of those days where I haven't sat down much at all. For some reason I feel rushed, hurried, and though I'm getting plenty done, I don't feel I'm getting anywhere. :( Its also one of those days where everyone is tense, and they seem to be forgetting that I'm actually "nice girl", NOT the person to get upset at or irritated at. - But PTL! (They'll all remember it later on, I'm sure.)

I'm off to the big market tomorrow, driving our 15 seater...this is bound to be adventurous. I've driven around markets before (even the ones in Mexico), but I've only been to this market once, but I didn't drive there, and it was about 3 years ago. HELP! Its a mad-town from what I recall so PLEASE pray it goes well. We''re not taking the usual truck as its not in the country (which is why I'm going - the usual driver is not in the country either) and we're taking a nice van. Oh dear! I'm going to need extra key-powered prayers that the Lord brings along tons of super nice cops and traffic controllers that just clear the roads for me. - Now that would be nice. And no, it's not wishful thinking. I actual have a local cop that does that for me here every time I drive by or am walking in town. - Even when I'm not interested in crossing, he'll stop the traffic and try to get me through it. HA! (He calls me "Barbie". So cute!) The best was when in LA though, at the wholesale market...now that was good...the boys would get me to drive in the market 'cause the cops would move the traffic for me. - Smart men! (And I didn't take it personally. I couldn't care less about bad reputations women drivers had. - If it clears the traffic I'm all for it. Snicker.)

At any rate, pray for me...us...everything. - Its greatly appreciated and I know it makes a world of a difference.
