In need of a little encouragement

Before I get to my ingredients post on Sugar...I had some things to mention.

First, I am very much needing some encouragement right now. My husband is going through a lot of changes at work. Not bad changes, good changes! Without really getting into it, some of his duties are changing and will be changing for next year. Don't get me wrong, they are changes that will help his career, move him up, and set the groundwork for his future....but it is still scary. Some people are probably thinking this is a blessing, which it is!! But blessings can still be stressful sometimes, right!?!?

I don't know about you but I get nervous and a little anxious at times like these. (I've taken Pepto probably 5 times so far this week because of it) For example, I know that my husband starting his Higher Education Masters in less than a month is a blessing. But I can't help but be nervous about it. (If you hate me for complaining about good things happening in our lives, stop reading now:)

I think it is the unknown part of it. He'll have the same job title and some parts will stay the same. But the parts that will change will shape our future.

It makes me think a little about what makes other people nervous or anxious. I don't get anxious about the pile of laundry that needs to be done. I don't worry about needing to register my new car by tomorrow and the fact that I keep forgetting to go down and license it. I'm probably the only one who has to take anti-nausea tablets (pepto again) because of how nerve racking it can be when your husband does well at work and therefore gets more responsibilities and therefore blessed in his career....okay, there has to be someone else who gets this way....

I guess we all get nervous about different things in life. This is mine. I rarely get anxious about anything else. Parenting doesn't even make me nervous. Hopefully someday I'll be able to simply rejoice in how blessed my husband has been this year at work. But for now, I'm working on it....
