Tapping into my inner Design Star

Life is Good.  God is Good.  He is the center of my being and I couldn't be happier.  I want to hold onto this feeling forever!  I have a horrible pattern of finding something else to worry about...no more!

This week's project is painting our bedroom.  I'm thinking a rich tan almost brown color would do well for the space.  It would match our comforter sets, which we have multiple!  We can not replace any furniture at the present time but we will make it work.  I envision a calm, serene, relaxing bedroom with my Picasso and Van Gogh painting on the wall. I'd like to have two identical ornate mirrors over each night stand. Maybe I can find a hidden treasure on craiglist.  A thick curtain to block out all sunlight so hubby can sleep during the day as he works midnights.  I wish I could learn grandma's sewing machine so I can make them!  That will be next on my to-do list.

So that means cramming our wall art, picture frames, memorabilia into the spare bedroom.  That's okay because I don't have to use it for studying anymore!!!! Sorry if the news is becoming old news but I still so super excited and I should be :) Moving furniture isn't hard.  Hiding away "stuff" for the time being isn't a big deal.  Now our clothes...that's a project in itself.  We have 3 closets, 3 dressers, 1 wardrobe, 2 plastic drawers that transitioned with me from college all filled with clothes throughout the house.  A little much, ya think.  Organizing, purging, donating, getting ready for fall/winter is the task.  I've found that my female students could benefit from my hand me downs.  They rarely get new clothes.  Rob has done well with his and contributed a lot of his clothes to the neighbor kids.

We still plan on moving, but as of right now we are at a stand still.  God has plans for us and will put us on the right path towards whatever that may be.  There are potential jobs in the works, or a possiblity of carrying out my purpose at the present job. Only time will tell.   I am learning to let go of worry, fear and anxiousness about our future and let Him do the work.  Jeremiah 29:11!

Happy Tuesday,
Angela
