Life has a wonderful way of just finding a balance that may 

not be exactly what you want, but it works.  I have spent a 

week with the children, and getting many "housewife" things 

done.  Today I managed to complete 8 loads of wash, 

and tomorrow I will most likely have to conquer the three 

baskets of ironing I have, however I am relaxed and feeling 

a sense of accomplishment.  Once my To-Do List 

begins to shorten, there is a sense of  more "free time" in 

my life. I am enjoying it.  Yes, I do miss my sewing, and 

evenings filled with TV shows, but at least I know that 

the two most  important things in my life are being well 

loved and favored.  

My hubby has arrived in Kuwait.  He is living in a POD 

(yes those small containers), but it has electricity and air 

conditioning.  Since he could only pack one duffle bag 

of personal belongings, he has had to buy alot of things 

like sheets and comforter, alarm clock, small refrigerator, etc.  

I was not too happy with all of his expenditures, but I do 

want him to have a comfortable stay.  The temperature 

hit over 100 degrees yesterday, and the small dust/dirt/sand 

that lands on everything is very annoying.  It was good to

 hear his voice.  

My advice:  Give your husband a big hug today.  

I wish I could.

Have a Happy Saturday.  

We are enjoying the warm weather.
