It was a whirlwind day for me.  Both cars ended up in the repair shop.  I was stranded at the grocery store….but fought the temptation to buy a dougnut while waiting for my ride to bring me home.

Tonight Isaiah had his monologue for drama class. It had to be at least one minute long and it was performed in front of his class and family members.  He did a portion of the Gettysburg address.  He did really well for a kid who used to have pretty bad stage anxiety.  We are really proud of him.

As for me, today, despite the stress I did well.   I remained joyful  for the most part and relaxed.  Even though the car we bought in December was one of the cars in shop, even though, I had to cancel Dan’s dentist appointment, even though I learned that the job I interviewed for and hoped to get was not mine to have, I did pretty good.

Tonigh the dog was barking and I was just wanting to sit and chill for awhile.  I was frustrated because she wanted to play and romp and move.  I got up, irritated, and got in the car and took her for a walk.  It was cold and snowy and you know what else it was….exactly what I needed.

After finishing up the dishes and cleaning the kitchen I had time to chill with the family and just relax.  It was a good day.  Not necessarily an easy one.  But easy and good aren’t always the same thing are they?

A special thanks to MariAnne and Chris who helped run us around today.  I appreciate them taking the time to give us a ride.

I have decided that: it just isn’t worth getting all upset about stuff…God is good…and He’s got this.

Good night.
