I May Look Worn and Tattered......

Ever had one of these days?? I feel like this almost every day lately. I can't get my body off and running. I look like I have been pulled through the mud every day. It is killing me. I can hardly cope with today's problems and pressures. I feel like I am on the road 24/7. Lindsay plays travel soccer so that takes up a lot of time with play and practice. Then there is the every day problems around the house. A tree blew down at our house during the 60MPH winds and ripped up the sewer lines. It is driving me mad. We can't fix it due to the health department regulations, and our next door neighbors well isn't 50 feet away. Ain't that a crazy reason to let your sewage run into the neighbors yard??? I guess....CRAZY. Then I get no sleep. I am so sleepy today. My cat had kittens and insists on bringing them in the house. She won't take no for my answer. My sister is driving me mad today about a household shower for my oldest daughter...and I can't do it now. Not only is it a cost problem, but it takes the time I do not have now. I just simply can not do it. Shane looks like death warmed over. He is so tired. I felt sorry for him in the last few days. He looks like he can't go another mile. He is worn out too. One positive.....
I love my grandson Isaac James and he has brought a new light into our lives....he is adorable. He is bringing me some joy I haven't had in a long time. I love to hear him breathe, cry, grunt ...which he does a lot of. So I may look worn and tattered....I may feel down and discouraged.....I may seem raggedy, but thank you God for one more day here on this earth to enjoy the time I have with my baby Lindsay, Kana, Kasey, Isaac James and mostly with my husband Shane...the love of my life.

Maybe it's God's way of telling you to take a break whenever you can. We can not always be "on". And that's ok too. All for a reason.:-)

The Lord will carry you through all this. This too shall pass.

God's Grace.
