[QUOTE="ksm, post: 703039, member: 12511"] This summer I ordered solar LED motion activated lights. They were fairly inexpensive, and used an adhesive Velcro strip to apply. I don't know how well they will work this winter with less sunlight, but they have worked great since we installed this summer. They give off a soft glow, but when we walk near the house they automatically switch to bright lights. We did this because DCs friends would come in to the yard and try to get her to sneak out. I don't know if you have a similar set up, but they make me feel better to know that it is not dark all around our yard. I too struggle with loss of my faith. But a friend texted me yesterday, and she encouraged me to exercise my faith and prayer life. I have gotten so beaten down that I had neglected that part of my spirituality. I guess just knowing a have friends that are stronger prayer warriors than I am sending prayers for me and my daughters does help me cope. It is something I can try to do for myself, since others are willing to do it for me when I was too weak. I am going to try and rediscover me... Sometimes when we have been strong for too long, we take a break, and it is hard to get back up. Whether it is prayer or meditation, we need to have positive self talk. I have always been a silent prayer person...but my friend encouraged to speak out loud. So I am trying that today...and will continue. Since no one is speaking those words to me, I will speak them for myself and my family and my home. KSM [/QUOTE]
