Here's Praying For A Better 2014, Goodbye To 2013!

      My New Year's eve started out on a bad note.  It was one of those days at work where you wish the day would start over and it would go better.  Every thing fouled up on me and I ended up staying an hour over to help out with the hustle and bustle of the holiday.  New Year's Eve and New Year day parties always call for a run to the grocery store.  I had to make four batches of guacamole dip, two regular and two spicy. One of us people in produce had to sample it as I had worked my hours for the day, so I was done.
       By the time I got home, my apron was dotted green and I was exhausted debating whether or not to watch the ball drop tonight.
       This year had been a stressful one for those around me that I love and for myself.  My daughter fighting anorexia and my late husband's father not doing well at all.  We saw him at Christmas, my kids and I were bothered by seeing him on a breathing machine.  There was only one other time we have seen that and that was the last few days of my late husband's life.
        I had received two e-mails from my late husband's mother informing me that he had a skin infection and now a foot infection.  Today he had to go in for surgery for it.
        Our nation's news never seems too good and in 2013 we have had so many tragic events, it makes me just hold on to hear something good, just has to be something good going on out there.

        What I pray for is much more happiness and love in our lives.  Together, I know we can make it.  Hand in hand in the family of God.  I am also praying for a special someone to take my heart as I place my trust gently in his hand and let him lead the way.
