Tuesday News
We started a new radiation schedule today and it'll be easier on us. Now he goes in to radiation at 9:30 AM. That gives us the whole rest of the day to do what we want to do as long as we feel like doing anything.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) Brandon and I will clear out my flea market booth. It's one thing I can't keep up with now, so I feel it's best to just pull out of there and concentrate on things here.
A very dear friend offered me a small job teaching at her private Christian school. It's a small school but is growing. The offer is that I can choose a subject that I can teach once a week, for just a couple of hours in the afternoon. Something like creative writing or something else - whatever I think might be useful to the kids. She'll set the tuition fee for it. I don't know what I'd actually be paid to do this, but it would mean a few extra dollars a week and that would help a lot right now. So, I'm going to pray about this and see what God would have me to do. If He seems to be leading me in this direction then I'll also be seeking His guidance as to what to teach, the lesson plans - everything. Nothing outside of His perfect will.
We are very much looking forward to seeing Danny's family members on Thursday. I'll try to get my Ebay stuff stowed so there's plenty of room in here for visiting. I'll have my shelves back here which will make it easier. I can shelve books according to when they've been listed and which need to be shipped out next.
I worry that there will be a time span on Thursday when the family members will be here alone. We'll have to leave for Danny's radiation appointment, and the kids will need to leave for work around 10:30. I'm not sure what to do about this situation and I hate to seem like a poor hostess.
You know, I just re-read Proverbs 31:10-31. Now, there's an amazing woman and one I heartily desire to model myself after. I fall so short, so many times. But above all, I want to be found by God and by my husband as one who is described as follows:
Prov 31:11-12
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
KJV

Ann,
My heart goes out to you and Danny and your family.
Please don't worry about being a good hostess....your family must be understanding of all that you are doing right now...
I just did a message on the Proverbs 31 woman on Sunday. No woman can meet all of the qualifications that are listed in those verses....but you taking care of Danny and working with him to provide for his medical needs and your family....BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY...you are looking to our Lord for guidance and support!
