True Blue Cure For Cabin Fever

Chris and I are both about to go bonkers sitting around waiting for THE phone call to come.  We hope and pray he gets some good news regarding the 2nd interview he had last week. Of course, as the recruiter reminded him today, the New York and surrounding areas received a large amount of unexpected snow, so many are without power. Therefore, we might not hear anything as soon as we'd like. We're hanging in there and trying hard to remain POSITIVE.

Now, for anyone who has ever dealt with a job loss, you know that it often limits the activities you can partake in, which might lead to "cabin fever".  With the weather being as nice as it was today, and has been the past several days, we decided to leave the confines of our house and go for a nice stroll at the park.  So glad we did, too!  The breathtaking scenery was a real mood lifter!

Check out the magnificent lake view...

        
Birds serenaded us at every turn...

The bright colors seemed to explode...

Nothing much prettier than Georgia in the fall...unless, of course, you're talking about Arkansas! I can't help but be a little partial, you know!

By the time we got back home, we both felt like completely different people with renewed perspectives.  Sometimes, that's all it takes...a little walk in nature and a little talk with God to make things right, once again.

P.S.  Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for your encouraging words on my last post. I didn't mean to come across as a "Debbie Downer", but I think the stress was getting to me.  Whatever God has planned for our family, I will do my best to face it with grace. Thankfully, the Good Lord knows my heart and, if I should stumble, He will love me just the same. I'll try to visit as time allows!  Miss y'all a bunch!
