Please pray!

I'm pestering all my favorite blogs indirectly with a prayer request...the rest of you can pray as well. Please.

ATTN: Carla, David, Kim, Amy, the girls at Girl Talk, Doug, and Tim.

Here is the deal:

I took the kids out for a super fun day (read: I took them to the mall to play) and the car broke down on the way home. Remind me never to try and do anything fun again. I had it towed to my mechanic and just got word the fuel pump went on it. $560 to fix it. I do not have anywhere near that much money, after burning through all my savings on a rental b/c of the transmission this summer. My car hates me.

I can't afford it. At all. That's half my income for the month and the other half goes to child care costs. I've got my mechanic calling the warranty people to see if they'll cover it. Please pray they will. I have no idea what to do if they don't. I mean, I know what I can do...I can pray, but that's it. I can't get through this one on my own. If not for Christ this would be rather depressing. Either way, God's got to work this out for me. Please pray.

Not Me! Monday

Image
Earlier this week my daughter started running a fever in the middle of the night, being the wonderful mother that I am, I would never dream of hiding the meds in some pudding. Nor would I ever eat ALL the left over pudding, thus forcing me to make another batch up for her. Twice . This weekend while my kids were visiting their uncle (who is on leave from Afganistan) I certainly did not go out to eat after church with two families who had all their kids in tow. Furthermore, I was not ridiculously excited when I found out that we were going to Old Country Buffet and that OCB now had a slushie machine. I certainly would never eat a ton of food and then stuff myself even more simply b/c the cake on the dessert bar looked amazing. Additionally, I did not toy with the idea of going back to get a mousse that looked really good despite the fact that I was ready to burst. After eating I did not volunteer to walk the two boys over to guitar center so that the three of us wouldn...
