Square/PayPal Update

Just a quick update on all the money stuff. I sent an email to PayPal essentially telling them I’m unable to comply with their request to register as a not-for-profit and asking them to reconsider if there are other options to resolve since nothing illegal was done. I am hoping this will encourage them to give me a different way of resolving this issue. Continue reading

Something’s (Still) Afoot & Heaviness

I know y’all just heard from me 36 hours ago, but there’s a heaviness in our home right now that is thick and messing with both Allen and I, so I wanted to send out an SOS for prayer!  I am not sure the root cause for Allen, but for me some of it stems from frustration over the PayPal thing. I feel like I’m being re-tested in an area I thought I passed a couple years ago. Continue reading

Not-for-Profit/PayPal & Sukkot

I’m sending out an SOS because I am on the messy side – so be forewarned!

It’s now a little less than 36 hrs away from when we leave for Sukkot and there’s still lots left to do. Praise report, everything that came in before Friday is done and shipped.  So that’s good, what’s difficult is I’ve had like 5 or 6 orders come in since then, and frankly I’d hoped to leave with a largely clean slate. But, I trust the Lord knows what He is doing. Continue reading

Sukkot, PayPal, Praise & More

What an exciting (and busy) time it’s been to be in the midst of my first set of fall feasts!  I confess I am thoroughly enjoying it – today we got to have a BBQ at the campground where we’ll be celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) from 10/11-10/20.  Not having camped in 23 years (and having been well over 100lbs lighter last time I did) I have been fighting concerns – seeing the grounds today definitely helped (whew!) and I got to test my wifi access so I know for certain I’ll have internet (hooray!). I plan to check emails every couple days. Continue reading

Updates & an Unexpected Guest

My apologies it’s taken so long to get an update out to you – with finally be almost 100% ok again all the things that were on hold suddenly required my attention and it’s been a busy week and a half, which has actually resulted in me throat regressing a bit so I have more of a cough and soreness again – but on the whole I’m feeling MUCH better! Continue reading

Prayer for Carol (SoH)

I know I just sent you a recording of me (sounding like a frog) because I wasn’t up for doing an update, but then I found out about Carol – who aside from being a dear friend and spiritual mother to me – has faithfully coached me on natural remedies through this period that have made it bearable and are what’s bringing improvement. Continue reading

Walking Through My Past

Since it’s been a week and since my last update was pretty raw, I figured an update was in order.  My apologies because I meant to do this a few days ago, but have been holed up (not in a bad way).

I finally met the Lord head on and quit avoiding Him with what He was digging at, so it’s been a productive week (the blog I just posted attests to that).  The Lord told me to go back and read all my journals, in order.  There’s 19 handwritten journals starting in 1987 going up through 2007ish. In 2004ish I started doing some journaling electronically so I’m coming back to those (I have about 1000 electronic entries, so it’s no small task).  I also have a 300+ page book I compiled of journal entries/words spanning the bulk of my marriage testimony. Continue reading

Messy Heart

Since two of you pinged me within 5 minutes of each other, I figured I’d better go ahead and send an update!  And please forgive me because this is another raw Meghan-focused post. It is so difficult for me to be honest about this because historically I help everyone else in their messiness, but when I need help either no one is there or willing, or they are too busy one-up’ing me to be helpful. This taught me it’s not safe to need others to help me, which is of course not true and not good, but my heart struggles with it nonetheless. Continue reading
