May I start by saying this has just been one of those weeks. I'll go ahead and preface this post telling you the following is just me whining. So, feel free to bypass. The next post should hold much more promising material.
I'm officially tired of painting, fixing, moving, unpacking and whatever joy comes with this entire process. And of course we can't ever move since it won't stop raining. Ever.
The power was out at our apartment again this morning(shock). So, Aaron decides to leave for work early. I tell him to drive by the house, see if the porch light is on. It was. So, I go over there to get ready this morning. I've been up since 5. Roll with the punches, I suppose.
We get my bedroom furniture setup last night in our guest bedroom. Turns out- that's the only bedroom (except the master) that cable is already hooked up to. Thus, our "office" has no cable which means no computer which means wasted office. SO...we move over the furniture aside from the bed into the "old office". We didn't move the bed because we had already put it together. AND the bedspread I already have won't match the paint in that room...so there's something else I need to get.
Lord, just for today:
- teach me patience
- teach me flexibility
- teach me to laugh at these situations where it really will be funny next week
- teach me to enjoy this rain for in the summer I'll miss it
- teach me to not care that my eyeliner isn't even, that I left my wedding rings at the apartment, that I couldn't get my lunch from the fridge cause I didn't want to open it, and every other little thing that shows I continually have no control over anything.
It's really fine. It's just one of those days.

I always try to remind myself that getting upset about "O no my furniture isn't here yet!" is like saying, "O no my trip to Hawaii is delayed til next week. Ugh! How sad for me!" Because for some people, the idea of figuring out which furniture to buy or where to put it would be the best problem in their world! It would mean they have a house and the ability to purchase stuff! I remember this too when i am overwhelmed by motherhood. There are those who long for a child and who would give anything to be in a position to say "I am so worn out because of mothering!"
Very true! Good thought.
i agree... i think it'll probably rain for forever!!
