...and it's been a great week! It really hasn't been much diff rent than any other week, but I am feeling better.
Monday I got myself to the doctor to take care of a few things, I hate going to the doctor it is such a chore. So I am very glad to be done with that!
Tuesday Night was Young Women. For our activity we decorated cookies and took them out to the Single Seniors. We took out at least 20 plates. It was so fun, I just wish we would have had more time to visit with them, they all wanted to invite us in to visit. As I was driving around a loud load of kids, I had the most peaceful feeling come over me, like at that moment in time I was doing exactly what the Lord wanted me to be doing...it literally brought a tear to my eye and gave me chills galore. It was a humbling experience.
Wednesday night was Bunco! It was a blast. Our host Natalie made fabulous food, I didn't win any of the big prizes but it was still a great time. I am so glad I went. Lately I have distanced myself from people, not on purpose. I just think as I have been trying to pull my life together i have felt incapable of being able to be a good friend. Sounds weird, I am just glad that several of my friends have not given up on me, it means a great deal.
Today, we got word that the insurance check is in the mail...OK people I am not going to complain. I just hope that you all will check your policies, and make some type of record of the contents of your house. I would try to prove them at least 2 ways, every item. We are getting 1/5 of our contents policy because of depreciation and the fact that I could in no way prove alot of our contents. You know what though....I don't care I just want it over and done...now we can move on. I was talking to my mom about it tonight. It's wrong that the insurance companies can fleece people in this way, but, life goes on and I can't dwell on it. The reality is we were hit by an ef5 tornado, we have to except that we aren't going to recover everything we lost, it's part of our trial, it wasn't meant to be easy. We are have been given a gift, we were blessed that we all made it through alive and unscathed. We have also received so, so much from family friends and even strangers. We are so thankful.
Tonight we will sit down and watch our favorite shows together, that is my favorite thing to do on a Thursday night. It's been a great week. YAY! Have a great Friday everyone ~E

Sometimes life hands us crap & lots of it. I truely believe that life is 10% what happens to us & 90% of how we react to it. You are a strong person! I am glad to see you are feeling better.
