Mr. Bright Side

We had the funeral for Vinny and his granddaughter last night. It was a different experience, obviously funeral's should be, no one should get used to them. I have never been to a catholic funeral and it lasted a while. Wow my ADHD was in high gear but at least we stood and sat and stood and sat every few minutes so it kept us on the move. It was a nice time to remember their lives and that's what counts.
The Lord is in high gear with the Trimble's lives! I have only one club team this year which makes our finances a lot tighter and as you know we have a child on the way. My first thought is what in the world are we thinking! Its awesome that the one year I get only one team is also the year we refinance our mortgage and save a lot a month and the year my youngest gets out of preschool (paid) and goes to kindergarten (free). Kelly will be able to work a little and the club will use me for skills sessions. I am a big time human - all I can see is the stuff I want to worry about and not the blessings or the way the Lord will provide. I guess its easier for me to worry and stress then look on the bright side (ugghhh just typing that makes me want to throw up). Is it possible that I need to work on not being sooo negative? No, not me (sarcasm)!
I have agreed today to watch my two and the two from across the street so my wife and our neighbors can go to Dallas to the new IKEA store. This is big time all day - 8am - 6pm - with four lives hanging in the balance of the wise and honorable Jeff Trimble. As I type I have no clue where the four are but am sure all is well. I'm actually surprised three adults have faith enough in me to allow to monitor four kids with the same maturity level as myself. Bless their hearts - their only human.

Don't you know you can never afford to have a child. You just have one anyway.Seriously, God has blessed us this time around. Whan we found out it was a boy I wondered if pink stuff would still work for him. Of course, it would never do to put a kid named Favre in pink. Anyway, someone that knows someone that we know has given us two whole boxes of boy clothes with more promised as her baby out grows them. God provides in wonderful ways!

Whoa there big fella! Don't you go getting postive and optimistic on me. You have already ruined me with this Blog thing. Don't send me into a tailspin.
