Well, I started the day off on the right foot, by going to Church. Then we went to Sam’s for a few things and Wal-Mart. We returned home, made cupcakes, and had a few friends over for the kids going away party. The turn out wasn’t very good, but that’s okay it is summer and people are very busy, so I understand. After everyone left I lost all motivation to continue my cleaning and took a nap. The Lord said that Sunday is the day of rest – and like it or not, my body said “let’s rest”. So the stove top still needs cleaned along with the overhead. The floor still needs swept and mopped.
The living room has been vacuumed and completely dusted, so truthfully it will not require a lot of work. However, most the cat hair is probably in there. So tomorrow hopefully my motivation will return. Brier has a Dr. appointment in the morning, I have to take Ashlynn for a fitting of her dress for the vow renewal ceremony, and then hopefully return home to my cleaning mission.
My friend was unable to make it today to practice with my hair and I am hoping that she will come tomorrow – if not I’m afraid I’m getting a little worried. I need to get it colored I’m sure and I’d hate to have “stinky ol’e hair” the day of the ceremony.
On Tuesday we are going to take a break and as long as the weather allows it we may possibly go to the pool. I’ve yet to take them and they will be leaving on Sunday with Marilyn, so I figured we’d better go while we’ve got the chance. They will enjoy it, I know.
Wednesday I have a dental appointment and plan to go out with my friend Jenny that evening. I’m not real sure what we are doing she’s been real secretive lately. She keeps telling me “there comes a time in a person’s life when they can’t know certain things”. I’m not sure where she got that line, but it’s been her story lately and she’s sticking to it. It’s rather comical actually. She’s up to something and whatever it is, it seems to me that she’s enjoying it and that I’m glad of.
Thursday is the day I’m hoping to take it easy and take the kids around town and just enjoy the day with them. Weather permitting again. If you can’t tell I’m praying for a lot of sunshine! We’re going to need it.
The closer Friday comes the more excited I get. We’ve talked about renewing our vows for a long time now and I’m very excited. We’ve come along way in our marriage and it’s not all been easy, but we are making it work. We are choosing to love each other everyday and honestly I believe I love my husband more today than ever before, and I’ll probably love him more tomorrow than I do today. Strange how that is, uh? Some days I want to ring his neck, but everyday I love him.
However, with all the excitement of Friday also comes the sadness of Sunday for my children. They will be headed to Missouri and I know they will have an awesome time with Nana & Papa they always do, but that is the day that they will say goodbye to Ohio and the friends they’ve made here. I know it will be especially difficult on our daughter – she loves it so here, and I don’t blame her. We’ve had a home here, a real home, with friends and Church family.
So if you could please, pray for my family this week, pray for sunshine for us and we will pray for you.
Until next time…
