Thanksgiving

We survived another holiday. Holidays tend to be pretty stinky around here. The expectation is to get together with family and/or friends and that makes my girls feel bad to be around lots of people. So we have to hibernate on holidays and it makes my heart sad.

We bought a turkey breast for the three of us and it was delicious. But I figured out that just turning the oven on makes Skunk sick. I haven't cleaned the oven in years (REALLY) and all the baked on stuff makes her react. So even if the baking of chicken or crackers doesn't bother her, the grime on the inside of the oven causes a reaction. So I have started scrubbing but I have to open the window and do it. This sensitivity stuff is just more than I can bear right now. I am praying frequently that God will allow Skunk to survive until I can get her gut treated and then that he will help her to heal. I can't feed my family because it makes my baby sick. This is so hard and miserable.

Only God is wise enough and powerful enough to help us through this misery. Please God, please be here and hold me. I just can't do this on my own. Help me to endure and be able to praise you in the midst of the storm of my life.
