Well since my last blog we have had more bad news. GW's grandmother passed away Saturday night. We have comfort in the fact she is with the Lord now & is not suffering any more. It makes me sad that we didn't make it out to the hospital to see her before she passed though. G.W. worked all day Saturday, so we thought we would just head out to the hospital first thing Sunday morning. Unfortunately, she passed away about 10pm Saturday night.
On top of the loss of his grandmother, there is so much else going on right now. This week is going to be crazy. His granny's birthday is today, our niece birthday is tomorrow, visitation is Tuesday, burial is Wednesday, we should get papers via email to close on our house in MS Thursday, should close on house here in TN Friday, and try to move Saturday!!
We have been praying for the house in MS to close out. This has been such a long drawn out process. We were originally supposed to close on 5/29, and it kept getting postponed. Now the buyers are scheduled to close Friday, 6/26! That is an extra four weeks it took them to get everything together! It caused us to pay rent & mortgage all in one month. If we had of known it wouldn't close until this Friday, we could have moved from one house to the other - which would mean we could have saved on rent this month, as well as not having to move our things twice in one month! I am also concerned that the $$ from the closing on our home in MS will not be wired to us in time to close on our house in TN. It is supposed to be wired Friday after the buyers sign their papers. Problem is, if we don't get it before 2pm Friday, we will have to postpone our closing here.
Needless to say, I am stressed & very frustrated. All I want is some peace in our life for a change. It seems to be one thing after another the past couple of years. I know God doesn't give us more than we can bear...but as Mother Teresa once said "Sometimes I wish he didn't trust me so much".
Well, I am going to close now. I think I will go try to revive my spirit with some scripture & maybe listen to today's Joyce Meyer's program....then take a nap.
About Me
- Chrissy Kemp
- The most important thing about me is that I am a Christian. I love the Lord & trust in Him. It is not always easy; but I will never give up!
I married my best friend, G.W., on October 7, 2006. Our life together has been really tough at times; but it is OUR life & I treasure every moment of it. He is an amazing husband & I thank God every day for bringing him into my life.
We are one of the few couples I know that do not have children. I am one of many woman that suffers from infertility; and have been told I will probably never bear children of my own. Although that journey has been heart wrenching; I believe God wants us to be parents. Very soon we will be starting the adoption process; and I am so excited about this!
