Frustration

I am frustrated because...

  • in three months and five days we are moving...and we are still unsure where the Lord is leading us

  • we are still renting, and after being in this country for almost seven years I had hoped we would have settled down and bought a house again (see below)

  • I miss my house :(

  • three hours ago there was 3/4 of a jug of milk in the fridge (enough until tomorrows Costco trip) and now there is less than a quarter ~ grrrr

  • when I look at our dining room classroom all I see is clutter, not that it is messy, just unorganized (see below)

  • I am unorganized, I get everything sorted and arranged and within two weeks it is not where it is supposed to be (see below)

  • I get great ideas for our homeschooling, we get started on them...and then two weeks later they fall by the wayside

  • I think that maybe my kids would get a better education in public school (see below)

  • I know my children are learning, but is it enough?

  • the kids wait for me to tell them what they need to do for the day, even after I have given them a list of lessons (see below)

  • I didn't realize homeschooling was going to be this hard, this time consuming, this challenging...at least not every day!

  • I believe in natural learning, Charlotte Mason, even unschooling...but I am not sure that we can ever get there

  • I am not spending enough time in His word, spending enough time with Him, learning from Him and what He has planned for me and how I can be the wife and mother He wants me to be

  • I am so frustrated and irritated and the only thing I could think to do is type some of it out for the world to read, thinking I may feel better afterward...

I don't!
