Wahoo, a 3rd Post!

I am just finishing breakfast (yes, it is 12:51pm right now) and have planned a whole day of running errands, cleaning and paying bills. Today is my day off and Troy left yesterday for tour so I am reorganizing a bit while he is gone.  As much as I enjoy having free reign to decorate and organize part of me is doing this because being busy fills time and I really miss Troy when he's not home. I am so used to being married and having him here that when he's out of town I kick into turbo Martha Stewart mode. So, I am trying to live on the glass is overflowing side of life without faking it. I really am hurting because I LOVE being with Troy- he is my best friend and he is hilarious. But on the flip side I really enjoy the quiet time, the girl time and chick flicks, and decorating for fall with no critique that our place looks too girly.  
We are both looking forward to the ministry that God has for us in this season.  I am going to get to know neighbors, and spend time reading, praying and being with people. I am hoping to invite our neighbors over for a backyard hang.  
As for Troy, he gets to use the gifts God has given him and share his life with the P!nk band. He will be traveling all over the world with them (Canada, Europe, Australia...) and will be home for short spurts in between. God has definitely called Troy to be a light in the music industry which can be a very dark place. Please pray for Troy while he is on tour. If you would like to join me I am praying Psalm 23 for him: 

The LORD is my shepherd, 
I shall not want. 
He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters. 
He restores my soul; 
He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, 
I fear no evil, for You are with me; 
Your rod and your staff, 
They comfort me. 
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; 
You have anointed my head with oil; 
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all of the days of my life, 
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
