Melt Down

For those that don't know, I (Ashlee) have been working as a picture framing and a landscaper. Well, unfortunatly we had to close down the framing school; sell what we could (liquidate), & move what my boss wanted to his garage as he continues to do custom framing on the side; there will just be no more teaching. So because of this, I have been working 50+ hours/week. Landscaping & when I can going in at nights to the framing school. Now I do realize some people work this sort of schedule all the time & my respect for you & your keeping sane has increased tenfold. I, however, am not built to work this kind of schedule. Especially with the mission at Home Church & playing in praise teams every 2nd week, and bringing food plus ...

Today was the final move out day at the framing school. Jeff & his brother came to help. We got it done & I cratered, and I mean total colapse. I couldn't even drive a vehicle home - I would have been a danger to myself & others on the road.

Now I will just be landscaping 3 to 4 days a week. I can handle this ... I think. I will need a week to recoup from this past 2 months. Please pray for Jeff's sanity. Yes, Jeff's. I can think I'm making total sense talking to him but then I see this blank look on his face & realize that what I said really doesn't make any sense but in my head. He needs an extra supply of patience. Plus I'm a little snippy.

Thank-you our supporters, family, & friends. To know that you are there for us, lifting us before the Father, giving me divine strength to continue to move forward.

May God bless your faithfulness with abundant blesses!

Shar,

Love you to bits! Thanks for your support. It's still great to hear that you care & I am on your heart.
It's hard sometimes being so far away from majority of our support but God is ultimately our strength.
