Friends,
A few weeks ago, I posted a thread asking for prayers because we'd had an increase of robberies in our neighborhood. Well, Thursday night the thieves hit and tried to steal my dh's car. The only reason they didn't get away with it was because the battery was dead - LOL!
Anyway, the police finally showed tonight and dusted for fingerprints. Dh is spending what little time he has home installing a motion sensor light and fixing his car which has a lot of steering column damage. Honestly, he's really grouchy tonight. The tension is thick.
Additionally, we had an enormously stressful day with 4 soccer games at various and overlapping times, 2 end of the season soccer parties and Isabella's game got called in the third quarter because the coach of the other team started yelling profanities at the ref! God Bless the Ref for not tolerating it but it was still very distressing to witness.
There's other things of life going on that I don't want to post about but they are adding more stress -
Can you please pray for our little family?
I decided I'm going to write a book about our experiences called "Bordering on the Absurd."
Would any of you read it? LOL!

What a lot of stress you all must be under Maria! I'll keep you in my prayers that things improve soon.
(And the book would be a good read, with your wonderful sense of humour.  )

Oh, Maria -
All those (so-called) little stresses can really wear you down, bit by bit, almost worse than one "big" thing.
Praying for you and your family.
Peace,
Nancy
