For Today

For Today:

Outside My Window: My shades are still pulled and the lights are off because of this headache I've had for 2 days. Maybe doing a blog today is not a good idea, but I don't want Dreama yelling at me, lol, so here it is!

I am thinking: Backache + headache + nausea = bad start to my day. It can only get better from here, right? RIGHT?????????????

I am thankful for: My hubby who worked so hard to clean out the shed Saturday and make room for my stuff. He's soooo good to me!!!! I almost have the whole shed to myself now. Time to buy curtains and lay carpet and make it a "girly" shed, haha!!!!

From the Kitchen: Well, i put some hamburger in the fridge to thaw last night but I don't know what I'll do with it. We'll see........

I am hoping: This backache goes away, but it's not bothering me as much as the headache. I know the backache is from lifting all the buckets Saturday, but not sure why I have the headache AGAIN! I just want it all to go away so little Crystal can go play!!!

I am reading: I think we will finish Love and Respect today or tomorrow, then we will finish Night Light devotions before we start on another book. Still reading through the Bible in a year and a couple of other books here and there.

I am creating: Some kind of decluttering of my "eBay warehouse"!!!!!!!!!!

I am praying: For healing for Sarah and me and Rob's knee, for God to bless all the wonderful changes at my Church, for healing for extended families problem relationships.

I am hearing: My chair squeaking, that's about it. Even the dog is quiet this morning, yay!!!!!!

One of my favorite things: The beautiful coffee mug we found at a yard sale. It is a big one with lavender flowers by Joyce Meyers. On one side it says "Relax", and on the other it says "Let God be God". And the best thing is it was only 10 cents!!!!!!!!!!!!

Around the house: It's straight thanks to my wonderful hubby who helped me put away the mountain of clean clothes Saturday and did dishes for me last night.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Take Sarah to the Dr. Thursday, other than that, nothing set in stone!

Marriage Enrichment idea: Do you ever play that game "Assassinate the Spouse"? You know, the one where you ridicule your spouse in front of their friends and family. Have you ever been in the presence of a couple playing that game? No matter which side your on, it's always uncomfortable. Even if playing "in fun", ridiculing your spouse is NOT a laughing matter. Next time you're with your spouse in public, try playing the "Praise the Spouse" Game. Bring out the good in your spouse and watch your relationship blossom into something no criticism could ever accomplish!!!!!!

If anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things. Phillipians 4:8

Father, help us to show each other love, honor and consideration always-but especially in front of others. Give us grace to learn and change, and bless our marriage as we learn to lift each other up with praise and prayer.

(Thanks Babe for playing the "Praise the Spouse" game with me! You always make me feel loved!!!!)
