my heart spills & shop news (closing for 2 weeks) & new sign

lol…the misspelling will not be in the sign you buy.  what a crack up.  thanks to my IG friend for letting me know..
totally slipped by this old woman!  ha! MEGCOLLAGE

i acknowledge it takes two
i also have learned i only take responsibility for only what is mine
but sometimes
regret bullies and threatens to take me with her

battle fatigue sets in doesn’t it

my son asked me if i thought i would be a grumpy old person or a happy one
he worries that i will have regrets and in psychology they teach that regret makes grumpy at the end of life
he’s 18

i listen to this song and it hooked my pain today

 

i cry and mourn for something i deeply love but is twisted and sick and nothing i can do can change it
but i love and i my heart hurts deep and longs for a lifetime partner friend  a soft place to land
to be vulnerable and know there is a safe place.  someone to rock old with.  who gets me.

a heart can be riddled with holes and scarred beyond recognition and what is one to do
when you’ve cupped it in your own hands
i turn to the only real safe place.. the only true and pure love i have ever known
he brushes my heart while the tears fall down washing away the sting

i breathe
i smile
i squeeze His hand back
and whisper i love you too…

instead i allow my creator father and husband to sing those words to my heart
i feel better
i wipe the tears

God is my everything.  always has been.  He is where i run..i hide..healed..delivered..made whole
i take trust and courage by the hand and move forward

why you  ask?  my knees are shaking.  like i said above it is taking trust and courage by the hand.
its a big part of our income

several reasons
*we have been so humbly blessed with lots of orders for our sign “Meg’s WONDERFUL sign on top of
orders we have had ( you can use code WHATEVER for 20% off through Sunday)

girls we are stepping out of the box .  just a little:) and i feel so blessed
to love love love what i am doing at this time in my life.
it needs to be sprinkled with some balance though if i’m being real here

even good things can be stumbling blocks if not measured. and this old bag of flesh
needs to be reminded that life is to be lived and enjoyed some not beat myself into a
frenzied heap of a mess not good to anyone

what things are you needing to be reminded of lately?  perhaps balanced?
are you anything like me in that you are doing so many things that before you know it
wham!

    No truer words, friend.
    Your colorful signs are beautiful…I absolutely fell in love with the one you sent Meg. I hope it sells like hotcakes.

    I’m also hoping you guys get your photoshoot this weekend.

    God is our faithful provider…trusting that the time off will prove to be a beautiful faith and trust builder.

    I know you know this…but even when you have a strong, loving companion in a spouse, Jesus is still our one and true husband. I’ll never forget sitting on our back porch in Orlando surrendering to that amazing truth and being better for it.

    Love you and love the mis-spell on your sign. You are human, afterall. LOL
