Mind and Site

So like I said, I've been working on my site now for almost a month (I think its related to keeping my mind off of personal emotions. o.O), and after I uploaded it I found out that 90% of my "add to cart" buttons weren't working! O.O And I forgot a lot of little things. So many little things...they always catch up with you and poke at your back. Um...yeah....sooooooo......the site is going to take longer than expected. Its all uploaded so if you come across a link that doesn't work, heh, I know. This site is monsterous and my wrists are starting to get very sore, BUT, I will not give up!!!

Everything is coming down on me all at once, work, emotions, fears, worries, friends, family, doubt, self pity, etc. And in my studies this morning it reminded me that all of these things consume us. Worry, which is the base of it all, consumes us. The devotional led me to a verse in Proverbs which just made me smile because, well, it was so simple and so wise (duh!).

"An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up." Proverbs 12:25

And then to these verses in Psalms, and we all love Psalms, well, I do, because its the book to me that is so full of human emotion, cry outs, frustration, and weakness. Confession. God bless David for it too! A king of human kings, and yet knows his profile against God's. Wow.

Anyways the verses are:

"When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?" Psalms 56:3-4

I slept in today, groggy right now, have less than 2 hours before work, and maybe one hour after before I got out to dinner with my mom and sisters. Not much time to devote to work. But with what the Lord has said to me today, thats okay. The site will come together eventually, and hopefully you have patience with me to get it done. I'm hoping for next week. ;) It would be nice to be done with it and get on with other things.

As for other sutto commitments (being drawing a day, ebay auctions every week, etc)....um.....yeah.....bear with me. For those of you who know me, this is a trouble spot and I'm walking as straight as I can to keep things where they go and when they need to be done. Yet alas, every time I do something steps in (humm...I wonder...) and it all goes array.

Can't say I'm bored tho! :)

Many blessings today.

Ah!! Half of my add to the cart buttons weren't working on my site either. There was some numbers in with my codes. I took them out and they started working again. I think my frontpage program changed the codes. What program do you use to build your site?

I'll pray much for you Sara. My day started out ok. Then I was talking to some people I kinda know and they began to make fun of me openly. This was very humiliating. It really hurt my feelings. I'm a very easy going person, very tender hearted.

Omg Holly! Thats so wrong! (((hugs))) You know it reminds me of Jesus and His comment that "they do not know what they are doing...". I'm sure thats a paraphrase but you get what I'm talking about. So many people are blind to what is going on. I hope that you are feeling a bit better about it by now and I pray that the Lord softens their hearts.

Ya know, I think someone... <_< ... >_> ...is out to get us. What do you think? Placing Christ and scripture all over my site, I'm sure, is pissin' 'em off and making the tech demons scream. bwahahaha! *waves battle sword* ;) BTW, I use dreamweaver.

Thanks for your prayers Holly, I'll keep you in mine. :)
