I don't understand why some days are just so much easier than others. I mean somedays I just get up with the attitude that everything is right, just so good. Other days, in exactly the same circumstances, it seems like every element of the day is just harder.
Today is just a day when I feel like everything is just working right, in every aspect. Which is so funny because nothing in life has changed, still the same house, family, school, finances, apostolate, etc. Yesterday just seemed LONG and I felt like I was up against so much! Today, all the same jobs, issues, people and life in general, just feel totally positive. It's like today I LOVE the challenge, yesterday it seemed like an uphill hike! Funny. Maybe it's that hormone thing "they" say is going to catch up with me. It's not like I really do anything different, I just feel different about the things I do!
I love where God has put me, but maybe He is putting a little more adversity in my daily life for the good of my soul. There are days when I have to really offer up a lot of my grumblings, and not grumble. That is quite an exercise for a person who has to verbalize EVERYTHING!
Yesterday it seemed like the house was just driving me nuts! Everywhere I looked it seemed like there was a job that I hadn't gotten to and like there is so much I want to CHANGE about it!
Today, I have that warm, contented feeling of HOME. like the jobs are all still there, the house is in the same condition, but I am just so grateful that we have it. That we live the way we do! I have such a sense of well-being.
School-same kids, same subjects, same place in the books. Today they are cooperative, productive. Today I feel like I am an effective teacher and we are accomplishing what we set out to do. They are really becoming well educated!
Maybe it's the sunshine. Maybe it's that it's March and NOT February.
Tim says that when we get back from VA he should have the new room ready to paint.
We still have to decide wht to call that room. I call it the sitting room. The boys call it the War room! They say we will be playing lots of games there. The Family Room just doesn't quite fit, but maybe it will after there is more of a ""room" atmosphere and less of a "garage".
Oh, I had to post this little story.
Paul had all these guys up on the windowsill in the living room. I asked him to put his toys away and he said "shh...they don't know they are Playmobile guys. They think they are standing on a cliff!" They stood there for two days.
