Not only are you busy with your secret garden you are busy sorting your emotions and accepting where you are in life. It's a journey, sometimes smooth and sometimes very bumpy. The wonderful thing about it all is God is always walking with you, lifting you up when you fall.

I keep saying I am going to do that, but when the weather permits, I have other things going on. And when I am home with time, it's just too cold or rainy to do windows. Maybe keeping yours of busy with other things is a type of rest for your mind.

I understand your concern about not being able to see your mother-in-law on a daily basis. I planned to see my husband's half-sister at each mealtime to see that she ate. The facility was less than a mile away from our home. But, no, I got completely worn out from the stress and the other things going on in our home. I did manage to get there regularly, about once a day. God will guide you through all these things. quietspirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086016141181470311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756675007223295900.post-83786180137955427202017-01-18T11:49:40.955-05:002017-01-18T11:49:40.955-05:00Oh I understand that one...working to keep the min...Oh I understand that one...working to keep the mind busy and all the while praising God for all that He is doing. It helps so much. I even have found myself talking out loud to the Lord as I worked. You and your family continue to be in my prayers. I know in our own situation God healed relationships that had been torn apart for many years. xxDiannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15916346102440260126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756675007223295900.post-73980517194667602542017-01-18T10:46:31.572-05:002017-01-18T10:46:31.572-05:00Hi Pamela, Your secret garden must be beautiful wh...Hi Pamela, Your secret garden must be beautiful when in full bloom. That is still one of my favorite books and movie. I always wanted a secret garden but alas living in an apartment complex I can't have one. My prayers are with you and your family especially your mother in law. <br />Toni https://www.blogger.com/profile/01171124552895606916noreply@blogger.com
