Hello, dear friends,
It has been a while since I've been on here - I've been so busy with school and life that I've allowed myself to get a bit distant.
Next week (Monday) I will be defending my prospectus at school (basically asking for approval to start work on my dissertation), I'm teaching two extra classes for someone on maternity leave, and G and I are starting in the process of buying a house. Throughout all the "busy-ness," I can feel God's hand in our marriage... G is more loving than ever and I know that's 100% GOD! All of this stuff going on is stressful but my G has been a rock for me and I am praying hard for God to continue to guide us to negotiate all the stress peacefully and lovingly.
I have been a bit distant from God just because of how busy I am, but since my grandmother's passing almost exactly a month ago, my relationship with God has been weighing heavily on my heart. I know now I need Him more than ever.
I have been quiet but I continue in prayer for you all. I've missed connecting with you all through this forum and I hope to be better about doing so again now.

I'm glad things are getting better with G. Keep those prayers up. Dios te bendiga. Siempre.

We have missed you Adrienne! I just love hearing about your marriage restoration! It gives me hope....especially now when I'm in so much physical pain and Dana seems so distant, depressed and wandering off. I'm praying for you and G.

Whoops, I disappeared again. Sorry, everyone. More updates:
1) My dissertation proposal was accepted, albeit with some major edits suggested. 2) The semester is officially over now and I've been easing into summer and trying to figure out my summer work groove. 3) We made an offer on a house, and it was accepted!! We close on June 15. 4) This past weekend I was out of town for a second memorial service for my grandmother, who passed away in March. It was a wonderful weekend with family, but I learned some things that have been going on that my heart is very saddened by and that need intense prayer.
G and I have been doing pretty well, and I am still striving to find my way back to a more prayerful connected relationship with God. Baby steps, right? I have been excited to go to church lately, so that has been great. And I continue in prayer for you all, always!
