Lonely but not going back to stupid

 Today was boss said hi.  She barely  did.  I know I am not her favorite person and frankly I don't want to be but it still hurt


My husband is still not home from work.  It is almost 8.  


I finished my class today and tomorrow is crazy.  My classroom is goofy.  I feel so out of control.


God I know you listen.  Thanks for being there. 


A friend of mine tries to bash one of my former friends.  I want to get sucked into it but I stay out of it.  


I know that person is toxic just like the other people. 

Dryer Saga

 t is amazing how a simple dryer can be such a problem.  First our dryer quit working.  I called the repair guy and he said basically I needed a new dryer.  Okay that saved 100 bucks.  Then we ordered one.  Awesome.  Being delivered Saturday and then changed two times. We decided to cancel the order.  Then we shopped around and found a better deal and a delivery date.  Then they changed it to the middle of the month.  In the midst of the situation dryer 1 company has now charged my credit card twice and we canceled two weeks ago.  Then my husband goes out and purchases yet another one and now we have a delivery date of Friday.  Frankly I am just waiting for the first place to deliver it and then cancel the other two.  It is amazing how a first world problem can really stress you out.  I choose to remember I can dry my laundry on a couch, stationary bike and all will be well until we get a dryer.  In the meantime I will remember to be careful with all my appliances so I don’t have to replace any more for a while.  I acknowledge this is stressful but it is not the end of the world.  I can’t change how others respond but I can change mys

Open and Closed Doors

 This week has been a series of more open blessings.  First of all finding out some codes I needed ahead of time has been awesome and I am seeing that when I have questions I can ask God before I freak out and somehow He answers them.  Also today I was not on a thread and initially I was upset but now I am looking at it as a blessing.  I realize that I can leave stuff on the mental shelf and I can deal with it later.  Thanks Lord for helping me do things your way.

Made for This

 I get discouraged but then I remember that there are various things I was made for.  Sunday I was running and I just happened in the morning to meet a runner who had Down's.  I also see where what I learned in the past helps me now with singing, teaching etc. It is so easy to get frustrated but then you have to remember you were made for this.  Thanks Lord!

Just Bye

 Today I was approached by a car that asked me while I was running why I did not use the sidewalk.  I did not know what to say and suddenly it came to me.  Just say bye.  He left.  I did have a witness that asked me about the incident and I told him what happened.  I purposely do not put myself in dangerous situations but that man just wanted a verbal fight and God took over.  It taught me that when stuff like that happens I need to not rely on my own imperfect wisdom but rely on Jesus Christ.  Thank you Lord for giving me wisdom today. 


Second after I was finishing up my run immediately I saw this flock of baby ducks.  I am learning that life does not happen but is just a series of God moments.


Last I have been discouraged because I have been feeling neglected.  Then six weekly events where I can use my fitness training happens.  In Covid the worst time.  I know God has my back.  He knows where I am needed.  Thanks Lord for allowing to me this less than perfect person to do your will.

Little stuff does not matter

 Today I was feeling really irrated.  Lately things have been falling apart in my school.  There is only chaos and not order.  The last few days I have not had a break and there have been last minute emergencies everywhere.  It is really easy to be upset.  Then I just found out one of my friends got fired from our school district by one of the cool principals.  I wonder what happened.  I guess I just need to keep my mouth shut and stay quiet.  I am only seven years from retirement.  It is not worth getting my way and getting canned.  I will just do what I am told to do.
