a small testimony....

Well...yesterday, I was so stressed out with all of these shows coming up, I was ready to just throw up. It was bad. So, I made a list. All the loose ends...all the worries....all the "stuff". Then, this morning, I went through the list and prayed specifically for each item. I didn't necessarily "dictate" the desired answer...just giving them up to God. SO.....I started off at school today and the stress immediately built....due to a lot of scheduling issues, I didn't think it was going to be remotely possible to get this show ready for the 10th...including that I can't decorate the stage until the 9th. That just isn't enough time...to try to teach all my classes, and do rehearsals and get the stage set up. Miracle of miracles...I went to see the principal about a couple of other things and lo and behold, she is getting a sub for me on the 9th so I can have the whole day to get ready. THis is amazing....absolutely amazing. I would NEVER have asked for that....but this way I can be at school all day but concentrating totally on the show and getting the stage decorated. wahoo. God gave me immeasurably MORE than I would have considered asking for.....very, very humbling.

Guess what I just did????????? I just finished shredding all the stuff I had set aside to shred. How about that???? pretty pleased with myself...at least with that. Much to do in the morning...but I think I'll finish up a couple more things tonight. Who cares, right???????? Nobody...but I'm telling ya anyway. :)

a very good day...

Yesterday, Sunday, was a very good day. WHy??? Well....I'm not 100% sure....but church was good, I had lunch with some good friends, came home, took a nap!, worked on some things in the house and MADE SOME PROGRESS. 3 trashbags of shred and old magazines and envelopes etc. Pretty impressive, huh????? Personally, I was VERY impressed and just a little bit relieved...actually a lot relieved. So....I have to go...much to do before school and what the next few days hold in store....so.........ttyl.

back....

well...it's been almost a month since I've written....why? Because I quit...I gave up. finito. Discouragement, disillusionment, disapointment, detour......I think detour is the most important d word. I don't remember where I was a couple of weeks ago, but I didn't know where I was going (driving) and without knowing that precise location, it took me considerably longer than the folks who could picture where it was they were headed. DOes that sentence even remotely make sense? Well...this is the thing I'm hanging on to right now... I don't have a goal...I don't know where I'm going...and because of that, it is taking me considerably longer to get there. I'm trying hard to figure out a goal...then maybe I can get back on track. that's all for now.
