struggling

4 nights now of poor sleep/up numerous times a night, just due to fibro, but the last two days I've also been congested, basic cold type I believe.
Decorating downstairs still ongoing, I keep thinking I'm nearly finished the Living room, then something comes up, often my health blocking me from doing more.
I've worked so hard to get things done, but I now go through each day with very little eneregy left and have gone to bed before 3-4 times in the last week.

It's half term week so DD,4 is off school and I've been trying to make sure the kids have some fun time, I don't want them just watching movies while I decorate so we've spent lots of time playing at JJacks a local play area with a massive indoor playground and one day unexpectedly followed this with a playground and Godfather Steve.

I am finding peace due to my growing relationship with God, in fact a couple of really bad days He got me through collasping in the garden and having to lie down in a shop and put my feet up. 5 weeks on and I am still easily staying with the devotional, not just once a week but revisiting 2-3 times each week as well. However I am very much struggling to discover a good and productive attitude I can maintain with my marriage and Hubby. Things are better than they were a few weeks back, larging due to his doing the devotional with me, at his request, and him actively praying with all of us several times a week. He's been initiating prayer I mean. I do feel, thanks to inspiration from several sites linked from the CHCH site that I am appreciating the kids better and spending better time with them.

hmmm.... been up since 7:30 so I'm going to head off to decorate with the family.
God Bless everyone
