Just A Little Frustrated!

Ok, here I go! Before I get on my "soap box" I want to say how very happy I am to have my hubby home! I was truly lost with out him and I am so glad that one quality I was given was being a strong woman. In my family I am the rock and although I had a "moment" a time or two I knew everything would be fine and now we have a new start and I can not wait to go shopping tomorrow to have a clean start on eating and I will begin to exercise and as soon as he is able he is ready for the gym. Today we are just enjoying the fact he is home. I am blogging because he is napping. 

Also, I have not talked about any devotionals because there are none on the weekend but they will be back tomorrow!

Ok, now on to my 2 frustrations that I am having right now...

First...This past week as been a blur. I am so thankful for the prayers and for my mom helping me with watching Cole so the patients in the hospital didn't lose their sanity. He is 2, so his attention span in a hospital is about 30 mins on a good day! What hurt though was they only time I asked anyone else for help it wasn't given. This one person I constantly help when ever it was needed could not go out of their way for me. It hurt. My husband feels that I am constantly taken advantage of by many people because I am the first one to help with anything. I thrive off of helping people. I love seeing a smile on a persons face and a thank you is great. There are times though when I need help to and I can not get it but then other people are constantly handed things. Would I quit helping people? Nope. I will always take the higher road and be the bigger person but it still doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt. 

Second: I am a designer with Origami Owl. I started to do this as a hobby and now I see when I want to go with it. I like to do Fundraisers for people and I want to give a locket a month to a deserving person. For the first 2 months I personally picked. They are both girls who are being treated with cancer. I am also involved with a fundraiser for one of them and gave away a $40 gift card for the other. So I decided that it would be great to do a give-a-way a month on my facebook page to where anyone could nominate a person for a locket the only thing was they could not nominate themselves. Out of the almost 200 people that saw this post do you know how many submissions I received? Zero! If I saw that post I could have nominated 2 people right off the bat! I do not understand it. Also the fundraiser I am doing I have not sold anything and I am giving 100% of my commission to her family and even have a site just for donations. When I see a post for someone wanting money for anything or are doing a fundraiser 9 out of 10 times I help. No one ever helps with what I am doing but yet I can do a fundraiser for a sport and raise over $100 and it is so frustrating! I just do not get it! 

Ok stepping off of my soap box now. Please give me a second I am only 5 feet tall so it is a long way down!

Tomorrow we are back on track not only as having my husband back but it is also to eating healthy and having a better family structure. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and see you tomorrow!
