I normally love naming my posts, but I just couldn't think of what to call this one so I left it blank.
Gosh, my life has been a whirlwind lately. I feel like every post I have "so much" to update on, which is true because I hardly post on a regular basis.
I will try to keep everything short and sweet and to the point, but if you know me, you know that I LOVE details and short and sweet isn't the way I do things.
My reason for not updating lately is mainly because my mom had a major operation a little over two weeks ago. She is not allowed to do anything and I mean that literally. She is required to rest and that is it. Well, my mom being the neat freak that she is, felt she could do small things around the house. With no one really home to watch her she overdid it and ended up back in the hospital with a clot in her vaginal area, a high fever everyday, and IV feeding her three different antibiotics and lots of sleepless nights. It's been horrible. I have done nothing but go back and forth from work, to the hospital, to home to sleep, to back to work then the hospital again.
I can't begin to tell you how horrible it is to watch your own mother laying there unable to even go to the bathroom on her own. It broke my heart every time I walked into that room, but I wanted to be strong for her, cheer her up as much as I could and really make sure she felt safe, well taken care of and that everything at home was under control.
Thank God, she came home today. It feels so nice to have her back. I know my dad is very happy about it. We have really missed her and I never realized how much my mom did for us until I was forced to help take over those things.
She is doing much better now. She is fever free which is the most important part and on her way to a slow recovery.
As one important person leaves the hospital, another important person enters. My Darren has to have an operation next week and I cannot be there for it. I hate that. I see what my mom went through and I want to give that same love and support to my love. He is trying to be strong and brave, but he is scared and so am I. I even had a horrible dream about it, but I think it is because I know I can't be there. It is so hard being away from him. This is a huge thing he has to go through and I have to stay and watch from a distance and NOT by choice. It sucks. Please pray for both him and my mom if you think about it.
On a happier note, my best friend Analiza was hired at my new job. My first week there, the two girls I work with both put in their two weeks notice and it has sucked big time being the only person at my desk. My boss was looking to hire and Analiza was looking to switch jobs, so I put two and two together and it ended up working out beautifully! Now I get to work in a much stress-less environment, AND I get to work with my best friend AGAIN! For those of you who do not know, that is how the two of us meet. We worked for a different company together for 3 years and became best friends through it. How unlikely is that to happen again! I am so blessed!
On a strange note...I have a question. There is one mother of a patient at my job who gets a long very well with me. She loves to talk and I love to listen! Anyway, we were discussing my mom because her dad is in the hospital right now. We were having such a lovely conversation when all of a sudden she breaks into a psychic thing. She starts saying, does your mom have this, or do you do this or that. And to be honest, she was dead on with just about everything. Now, I do not believe in that sort of thing, at least I would never go to that type of person for advice or to "look into my future" but what do I think of it? She called a lot of things that were so right on. It was kind of strange. My heart started racing and I could tell she noticed how taken back I was. She then goes to say that she is a christian and has the gift of discernment, but the way she was doing it was more like a psychic. It was strange. What do you think of that sort of thing. Do you really thing these people "see thing" as she put it today?
Alright, well that is it for now. I can't promise anything, but I would like to update again soon to share some more thoughts on the whole friend situation that I posted about earlier.
Thanks for reading if you got this far and I look forward to writing some more!
Cheers,
Kristin
Kristin,
I believe that each individual person has different gifts of the Spirit. Some may have the gift of intuition or preminition (I think I have those) and others may have discernment. I don't know if it a "psychic" thing as much as it is that they have sense from God and perhaps you were brought upon her heart and she felt moved to ask you those questions. Just food for thought.
I hope you're doing okay!

I am happy that you talked with those girls. The may not see or understand your decisions...but....who are they to judge! As long as you stay judgement free, and keep your eyes focused on God, girl...they have nothing on you!! ;) I love ya and I will keep you in my prayers (your mom and man included). And, as far as that psychic/christian thing goes......who knows. Just take her for who she is, but don't base your life around anything she tells you. If God wants you to know something He will tell you :) No worries :) MUAH
