Feeling Frazzled And Freaked Out

As I sit watching a program on TLC on the quiverfuCheck Spellingl Dugger family, I feel in one more way that I am a little less than what I should be. Who gives birth 18 times? It is not my place to say anything negative about them. God very may well have called them to this life. But does He call every one to this life? Is birth control sinful?

Man. She probably breastfed all 18 of them too...

Moving on...

I took Nathanial to the grocery store today and within 2 minutes of stepping out of the car, BAM! I got stung by a bee on my shin! It is now swollen and hot to the touch. You would think I was allergic. I'm not, that I am aware of.

What is it with laundry? I turn my back on it for, oh I don't know, a day and a half and BAM! I get stung by the laundry bee. Before I know it, Lee doesn't have white undershirts, I don't have underwear and the baby has no bibs. It's ridiculou.

Back to the Duggers...

Have you watched this show? I can't decide if they are what the world should be or somewhat cultish. I know that it's not my place to decide...but they are so different than most other families.

Did I mentioned I was frazzled?

So anyway, I'm freaked out about a lot of things.
  • I'm freaked out about the knot growing on my leg where I was stung.
  • I'm freaked out that I have been spontaneously bruising for the last several months.
  • I'm freaked out that I am back in real estate and even though the Lord, I do feel, has led me back into real estate, I keep feeling "I know you can, but will You?" And that's a dangerous place to be. I trust the Lord...I do. I just don't always trust that I see the good He has for me. I don't have a lot of patience, and I think that I just can't see the forest for the trees all of the time.
  • I'm freaked out about money.
  • I'm freaked out about Nathanial's arm.

I know I need to commit all of this to the Lord. I know need to let go and give it all to Him. Yikes. That's a tall order for me. I like me some control.

Well, here's to the most random, stream of conciousness post I've made.

Good night.
