We are definitely moving next summer and we are heading further south. Although there are many things I can appreciate about this place, I have to say I am so excited about moving somewhere warmer! I know people who love the winter cold, but not me. My hands crack and bleed, my skin itches from dryness, my nose peels! Yes, it’s gross. To put it plainly, I am not a winter person.
It seems that ever since we’ve moved here, things have just been harder. I know it’s been a huge growing season for us and that it’s necessary, but still! Why does life seem to be so painful right now?
At the same time, we’ve been so blessed. We have an awesome church, good friends, a nice house, healthy kids, great doctors – Yes, God has done a lot for us during our stay here. When I look at the whole picture, things really aren’t that bad, but when I focus on all the little concerns and annoyances we are dealing with, sometimes it feels a bit overwhelming.
It just feels like we’ve been running a very long race and we are getting tired.
Where are you guys moving to?!? You are moving south and we are headed north…go figure!!! 🙂
I am so excited to read you’ll be heading south soon! I don’t do well with winter either!
It’s funny we’ve been talking about moving farther North (like Ohio.)
Our whole family just doesn’t do good it heat ! During the (dead heat of) summer we’re in the house in the AC.
I can TOTALLY relate to life seeming SO painful right now and we’re also getting tired on the long race !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would say life is extremely overwhelming !
