And the world begins again


I think that after a four day holiday, one should go back to work with a clean house left behind.  Nothing like that happened here and it makes me feel a little pissy at myself this morning.  I'm so anxious to go back to work where actual professional cleaning people empty my trash and clean the bathrooms. 

I am feeling fearful this morning about some things coming up (medical needs, kid needs, legal needs) because I know they are going to happen no matter how much I ignore the sound of their footsteps coming.
I can stop none of it but this knowledge does not prevent my fretting.  None of it is happening today, but I have to start preparing at some point.  Where is the "some point" though?  That's the tough part for me.

Oh well.  Today it feels good to get back to work, see my co-workers and feel some normalcy in the day again.

I will pray this morning for courage about events coming up that I cannot change.  I will ask Gods assistance in focusing on the day I'm in.  I will go out of my way to make sure that the people who are important to me know it.  I will show appreciation to those who are kind and loving to me and I will thank God for putting them in my life.

Good post, Pammie. Let's all try to get some *normal* today!

I love that you talked about feeling fearful. I always feel like I am failing my program or not living in faith when I get fearful and worried. What I got from this post is to acknowledge it and then start looking for the good. You are very important to me. Reading your blog feels like I get to read a really spectacular daily reader everyday. With no repeats and filled with hope to keep on. Thank you for being you Pam. You are a gift.

Pam my question to myself so often is 'Is it time to start worrying without worrying that I worry too much?'

You're important to me and I hope today goes well. And that your daughter is healing from eye surgery.
