oh cd hun praying for you. All I can say is talk, talk and more talk. If you need to get some help get it. Don't let this marriage slip without a fight.

bealcain · 24/06/2008 22:32

Thanks for prayers all

Yes Captain - three grown-up children 9well at uni) and her husband. Plus all the other youth in the church that see her as a second mum...me included!

amber32002 · 25/06/2008 06:33

Thank you for the prayers. Still really worried and fretful because the people who were supposed to help me with something have found ways not to do it, and ways not to give me the info I need to write the document. I hate politics and power-plays because I never know what's going on, and wander about naively thinking "These are nice people - it must be my fault - what haven't I done, how have I upset them?" I've got a bad feeling about all of this, and they won't say what's wrong or what's happened. Prayers still appreciated.

CaptainCaveman · 25/06/2008 09:11

Praying here amber

DutchOma · 25/06/2008 09:37

Oh Amber, sweetheart, it must be so hard. Please be assured that you are so very precious in the eyes of God, that is the truth, right from God's word.
Take care

CaptainDippy · 25/06/2008 10:00

You are preciuos and loved amber honey. xx

DutchOma · 25/06/2008 10:24

And so are you CD. How are you this morning?

Roseylea · 25/06/2008 11:00

Praying for you Amber, for reassurance and peace. I'm sure that it has nothing whatsoever to do with you; it's probably to do with them being over-busy or forgetful or something like that.

How are you now CD? Praying for you and your dh, for time and space to talk.

JentlyDoesIt · 25/06/2008 11:40

Popping in...

amber - praying for you. You are special and loved and I think you're bril!

CD - how are you lovely - please email me if you want, am so sorry you are sad.

amber32002 · 25/06/2008 14:17

Thank you all for your prayers and kind words. I always keep everyone in prayer here too.

Alas, another horrible email from the man who's supposed to have been helping me. He's made it look like I'm asking for really unreasonable things, which I didn't, and can prove it because I've got my emails that only asked for a couple of simple quick things to help me. My boss has had to step in now because she can see how upset I'm getting. I guess I have to trust that God is using this for a purpose...

Weegiemum · 25/06/2008 15:35

Just though tthat I'd let you know that we both passed everything! So can graduate in 2 weeks!!!

DutchOma · 25/06/2008 17:18

Congratulations to Weegiemum and Dad.

So sorry to hear that you are still getting nasty e.mails from anybody, glad your boss is on your side Amber.

And MJIM, a 2 1/2 year old should not have these burdens placed on him. If he is in an unhappy mood, surely someone could shadow him a bit and make sure that he has a little space around him.
What kind of a playgroup is it? Maybe he is a bit too young to enjoy it fully. The playgroup run by one of our local churches only allows them at 2 years and nine months. I agree that the 'report' was very negative and you could maybe ask to stay for a bit since you realise that he was not a happy bunny.

Hope it soon clears, whatever it is.

Notquitegrownup · 25/06/2008 22:37

Good evening all. Flying by but sending lots of love and prayers, especially for CD and MrCD. Thinking of you.

Prayers for you at work Amber and for the carers of you little ds MJIMS. The report does sound negative - though maybe the carer would be shocked that it sounds so. It is sometimes difficult to get the tone of these things right. Much better if they had a little word with you at the end. Hope that your ds continues to enjoy it and to thrive there.

Well done Weegiemum and MrWeegiedad.

Now, has anyone read "The Heavenly Man" by brother Yun? I've just finished with it and found it pretty challenging . . . I'd love to hear what anyone else thinks who has read it.

God bless all.

Notquitegrownup · 25/06/2008 23:17

And one quick question before bed. Are Anglican deacons addressed as Rev? (I've just found out that an old friend has been ordained as a deacon and am dropping her a note)

amber32002 · 26/06/2008 07:26

Well, would you believe it. I've asked for info for months, my boss asks just once, and within ten minutes I have the info.
Should I be pleased, or sad?

Prayers aplenty for all here.

MaryBS · 26/06/2008 07:52

Here's praying that NEXT time you need something it won't be so difficult, Amber.

NQGU - courtesy of Wikipedia (because I didn't know):

"Deacons are styled either as "the Reverend", "the Reverend Deacon", or "the Reverend Mr" (males), or "the Reverend Mrs, Ms or Miss" (females)"

How exciting for your friend

CONGRATS! Mr & Mrs Weegiemum! How wonderful for you! What's next on the horizon? God's blessings on you both!

MJIM - they are being a bit harsh on your little boy, considering he is so young. Praying that it can all be sorted amicably, and that he feels better soon.

Praise God the auditors avoided me!

I could do with some prayers for a solution to pop up. Sept-Dec I am supposed to go on placement at another church (although it might not be a church). I need to give some thought to where I want to go, prior to meeting with the course director 8 July. I am concerned how DS will react to all this and who will look after him if he goes to church. If he DOESN'T go and stays home with DH, it will be difficult getting him back into it when I return from placement... I wonder if I could persuade DH to go to church for 2 months...

CaptainCaveman · 26/06/2008 09:38

Congrats weegiemum and weegiedad - you very clever people you!

praying for your situations amber and mary, may God bring you the answers you need.

I am praising God for how well I feel mentally - am really enjoying the peace and quiet at home now I'm on mat leave and ds continues to go to nursery. On my last mat leave I had awful panic attacks and didn't enjoy the period from leaving work to ds arriving. This time it couldn't be more different , so Thank You God for blessing me with sanity
