One of those days

Do you ever have "one of those days"?  I know you know what I mean so don't even shake your head!  Well, today is one of those days for me.  Not necessarily bad but not really organized....I think.  I have the house in shambles because after going to my sister in laws house for my nephews 1st birthday, I realized mine is not up to par...that is, not up to par per her standards.  (this is all my doing, she is sweet and wouldn't say a word)  BUT you know when you have been some place and then you come home and think you have to keep up with the them?  Well, thats what I am doing, stupid I know, and God said not to covet...maybe off the mark on that one but its the only thing that keeps me going.  God wants me to  be happy with what He has given me...not what I can give myself...so why am I tearing the house apart?  Beats the heck out of me!!!  Maybe it is all the stress and crazy hair brained ideas catching up with me, or the fact that I have had coffee and brownies all day today...NOT the feast of champions!  So, sitting down looking at my madness and watching Leroy (the cat) go zooming by 90 and 0 from one end of the house to the other...I am trying to be satisfied...I am satisfied with everything God has given me, just not satisfied with myself...know what I mean?  Oh well...God gave me me...so I should be satisfied with that fact.  He knows whats going on in my head and in this house, its all good.  Thanks Lord for being there for me! 
On that note, I have managed to get some things done today.  Got a new sewing table situated (its a desk that I have painted and used for just about everything under the sun) Looks pretty cute and is functional (unlike me ha ha)  Found some table cloths that I forgot I had, and am trying out the idea of a table in our kitchen.  Using a card table so its pretty ugly.  Not bad sense I painted it and put a table cloth on it as well, but the chairs look bad (unpainted) and like fold up card table chairs.  (be satisfied..I am...no you are not...yes I am...)  Putting way too much stress on myself for this stinkin birthday party...grrrr...Its Jeremiahs first and he has tons to come so what the heck?  I have 2 options, either get some helpers, or nix the projects!  I will let you know what happens on Friday for sure!  Well, I bet you can guess what I am going to say next...so I won't say it! 

bye all, have a good one.

1)"Looks pretty cute and is functional" YES LIKE YOU. You silly woman. You are totally cute, and totally functional.

2) Stop stressing with the projects. You are YOU and not your family. They need to love you the way you are (which I think they do) and so YOU can love you the way you are too. Not b/c they do but b/c God made you a beautiful, wonderful, talented, awesomely-amazing young woman/mommy!

3) Sorry I don't have a table for ya.

4) I have those days, I totally get ya girlfriend. At least you got SOME done. :)

5) Thinking about Leroy zipping around made me giggle. :)
