Waiting

My hubby is gone for 10 days.  So I feel like I'm just waiting.  He'll get back, I'll do his laundry, and then he packs for the boundary waters.  This summer was not meant for family time.  Next summer is all mine though!:)  They are having fun at the National Youth Gathering though.  My husband took 11 of his kids from church and two sponsors down to NOLA.  He has texted me everyday and we ichatted this morning.  They worshiped last night with 37,000 young adults in the super dome.  I really pray that our kids are getting something out of this.  Most of them have never experienced anything like this.  Some of them rarely experience worship at our church.  It is a good learning experience for all!

As for me, I took a coaching class on Monday and now have two tests to finish before I am a certified head coach!  I'm over 1/2 done with the first test and am hoping to get a few more questions done during nap time.  There are a lot more things to my coaching gig than I realized.  I have to take a test and been shown some things for driving a school vehicle, plan and execute our meet that happens the second week of the season and plan my practices.  I'm anxious to get the tests over with and get the administration back at school so I can easily find the people I need and talk with them.  Luckily I know the golf course manager really well where our meet will take place.  The previous coach has also volunteered to help run our meet and come to the first meet with me.  Meets in MN are run a little different than meets in Nebraska.  

I ran this morning for the first time in over a week.  I was weak for sure.  I've got some catching up to do.  The previous coach was pretty sure the boys haven't been running, but high school boys will blow by me in a second if I'm not ready! 

That's all I know right now.  I am being Mommy and being coach.  It's all my poor brain can handle without having my hubby home.  We always say "I don't do good without you" (pardon the grammer, but it's what we say) and boy is it true.  I guess that's why I married him.  Probably why two become one and all of that wonderful stuff.  Now that I'm with him, I just don't do good without him!  Can't wait for him to come home.

    Great testimony you shared! How did it go?

    Praying the days without your hubby go quickly and are filled with good things!
