Good morning. I was going to sleep in a little this morning but about 5:30 I heard Honey whining in the next room. I have no idea why but got up and 'comforted' her anyway. So I am up - now. Chores all done, had a bowl of Cheerios, and on my second cup of coffee - just waiting for the other shoe to fall. It is a beautiful morning, a little cooler, but will warm up quickly.
Day 1799 - Living "My Next Thirty Years" one day at a time. Today I will remember that all I really have to do is to get through this day without making any thing worse than it is. God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
Today is back to work after a long weekend. Mondays ruin the weekend! I really, really, really dread going in today - I know it will not be as bad as I project but I know it IS going to be a mess. I just do not know how to not take it personally. I just wish that I felt wanted, needed, and respected, but do not. But I am paid to be there so I will put my feelings aside and do the job.
Yesterday was a good day. A good day at church. Rested most of the afternoon and watched Jordan win the Masters - what a great young man! He will bring a lot more interest - at least my interest - back to golf. Cubs won too!
This week I have my annual Medicare physical on Thursday. Friday we will get the paint and Saturday I will begin painting the house. Maybe? My next three-day weekend, we are going up to see the boys, probably May 9th. But with Rosemary leaving the store, I do not have any idea what my schedule may be, but I do not think it will change.
MY RUDDER AND ANCHOR!
Psalm 64:9,10 - And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of His doing. The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and shall trust in Him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
Proverbs 13:22 - A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children; and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.
The Word Alive in 1 - 5 (Reading II Samuel 6-9)
Morning & Evening with Spurgeon - There is enough in Christ for all my necessities. Everything needful is in Him. We must value Him as our best treasure; we must prize His words and His ordinances as His distinguishing, and discriminating grace.
MMM - just some thoughts: (1) LBB - I will try to make the world better and happier by my presence! (2) RFX - The false comfort of self-pity screens me from reality only momentarily and then demands, like any other drug, that I take an even bigger dose.
