Today has been a crazy emotional roller coaster - and it's not even lunch time, yet!
I woke up this morning, and as I usually do when Little Bird is actually awake (she still shares our room), I weigh myself. I am down some more. There was much rejoicing!
I then went downstairs to check my email/facebook/other email/etc and noticed there was a crazy screen up. S had put on a scan of the computer before we went to bed last night. Apparently, it was a search and destroy type, or something like that. I guess, it decided that our entire system had some issues and somehow had rebooted our whole thing. ...which meant I lost lots and lots of very meaningful and important things - like pictures or other word documents I've been working on for months. The frustrating part of it all, is that last night, as we had been chatting about how our computer was doing annoying things, I had said we needed to make sure we backed it up soon. I guess it just wasn't soon enough.
At this point, I'm hoping that S can do some kind of miraculous recovery of our files, but not tooooo hopeful, really.
After noticing all the files were gone, I was able to get online and actually check all of that which I had meant to. I got an email from my publisher and BAM! My book is live! It can be purchased and read! It has been such a long time coming that it feels super surreal.
I'll do another post about it soon, but here's a link if you want to go check it out :Here
Anyway, I'm not expecting this day to get any less crazy. I have been reading blog posts about common lies MKs (missionary kids) believe and boy have they been hitting home. I also have an appointment with a wonderful counselor who is journeying with me to unravel some of my spaghetti mess of a brain.
If you think of it today, pray for my kids and husband - they are along for the ride.
