Work, babies, and faith

Can't quite believe I'm 30 now, bye bye to my 20s!! No idea if that's good thing or bad, but I guess it just is what it is.

Life has been turned upside down enough lately as it is. My best friend now lives practically on the Welsh border and I miss her like mad!!! Yes we still talk on the phone all the time like always, but it's not quite the same. To top things off, just as I was starting to get used to that DHs job is on the line. His company are in liquidation!!! There's a chance they'll be rescued/bought out by sister company, but if not then he'll be made redundant along with the rest of them, gulp!!!

Much as I'm trying not to freak out or think too far ahead it's pretty hard not to. Especially when DH is freaked out & now obsessing about each & every tinyest little thing. To put it bluntly, he's driving me nuts!!! I'm trying to be as supportive as I can, but it's hard when you have to convince him even to go food shopping! We still need to eat and life has to carry on as best it can. We don't know anything yet and won't for nearly another week. Starving us all in the meantime is NOT going to help anything!

Unfortunately DD is picking up on all the stress etc, unsurprisingly, problem is though it's making her act out and have more outbursts than normal, and worse ones. We are struggling enough as it is, outbursts are definitely not helpful!

Feel like I'm playing referee here all the time. Whoever said that all mums are qualified referees certainly wasn't joking!! Any tips peeps?

On the good side, we had a real answer to trayer today. Baby DD of a close friend was admitted to hospital yesterday with breathing problems - very scary!! Anyway very many people have been praying, I sent the word out to the networks. God answered our prayers!! Baby is doing much better suddenly and has been allowed home. Thank You Lord Jesus!! Truly nothing is impossible with Him, ask and He will always answer! So that has been a real bonus today and something that I'm trying to focus on instead of the bad stuff. We must trust in Jesus, He will lead us through even when we can't even see the path ahead! Really wish and pray that DH believed that too!

Anyway, I'm doing this on my mobile so going to cut it short and leave it there for now. Love to you all, God bless xxxxx
