This is so minor and I do so want to keep it in perspective. We have had our house treated 4 times in rapid succession with little to no relief from the fleas - except that the dog no longer has fleas. If it is in God's will, please pray we find relief soon, that we make wise and just decisions regarding further pesticide spraying (I and 2 of the children think we had a reaction to one of the sprayings, nothing major and we handled it by keeping windows open) and we have heard troubling things about the company we were using.
If this is the pennance God wants me to bear, then please pray that I can do so with good grace and cheerfulness, offering it for the much more serious intentions of this board and others that I know. I'm not very good at dealing with difficulties so this may really be God's kindness getting my attention to work on offering up little annoyances - but I think I'm really in need of prayer support in order to do that.
Thanks for your prayers.
Janet

I am praying for you Janet. We have fleas also! I am trying EVERYTHING (naturally) to get rid of them. It is VERY frustrating.

Praying for you. You've probably been told to vacuum daily and throw away the vacuum bag each time (to get rid of the fleas and the eggs). They *will* go away... hang in there.

Oh no, Janet! I thought they were about gone! How troubling!
Praying for your sanity, and peace, and for some serious practical solutions to make themselves known...SOON!

Oh, Janet, sometimes the little things feel very big. I am so sorry. I promise to pray for you!
