In the first pic, I am 5 years old.  It was the first time I was bowling and the first time I was rolling the ball down the lane and I got a strike.  I was a natural.  OK, no I wasn't a natural.  It was a total fluke because it seemed to take forever for the ball to get to the pins, but they were all knocked down.  The second pic was 10 years later.  I was 15, just a few weeks away from being 16.  And I still loved bowling.



EO is now joining me for morning worship.  Well, he is just doing the Bible reading with me. I love it.  Steph joins me sometimes, but it depends on her work schedule. 

with so much going on this week, we are going to have family worship right after lunch.  

As for me... yeah, lots of pain in my hips, a nasty headache and I'm just worn out.  I would like to crawl back into bed, but I don't dare, I wouldn't be able to get back up for family worship.  Yeah, we are having family worship even though we have the CO visit. We don't want to risk breaking our stride.

I am pretty sure that tomorrow I will feel even worse, as it has always taken two days after an activity before I feel the effects.  Unless it is really sever, then I feel it the day of the activity.  

Anyways.  we had a rough night last night.  but we are coming up with a new plan to make things better.  There is to much pressure on us and we are struggling.  To many people depend on us, and it is getting harder to carry the load.  So we are working to roll that pressure onto Jehovah.  You get used to carrying your own load.  then someone comes along and asks for help, then someone else, then someone else... you don't even remember it happening and then you break down.  So we are going through our loads, we will toss out what we don't need, and the loads that belong to others, that we need to carry, we will have Jehovah help us, because those loads need to handle with care.

it was a rough night, but we will keep praying that Jehovah not give up on us and help us keep moving forward.
