Life has been busy lately, nothing exciting just busy stuff. I have been in Snyder helping Monty (as best I could) with a remodel there. Maybe I helped a little but I was ready to be done with the job and come home. We have just tried to get rested up a little, of course when you have been gone there is always laundry to catch up and yard work that has to be done. I am weird about that though, I do enjoy yard work. I am trying to grow a pumpkin patch inside our retaining wall so I am trying to figure out what it takes to actually have pumpkins to decorate with in the fall. Monty and I went to the movies last night and on the way home were talking about technology and how it just blows our minds. Things we saw in movies when we were young are now things that we all have in our homes, the tiny phones we all carry and all the things we can do with them just absolutely boggles the mind. Just yesterday I had sent Ian a video e-mail, singing ABC's to him and when we got home they called and walked me through getting on Skype so I could actually talk to him in real time, he doesn't relate to the phone all that well, but when he can see you it makes a difference. If you are about my age you can remember Jane or June Jetson talking on her phone but could actually see the person. I remember everyone talking about how awful that would be because you wouldn't want to answer the phone if you didn't have your hair combed or makeup on or were still in your pjs at noon! It has arrived and has been made accessible for every household, it is easy to sign up and it is free. How does that work? Nothing is free anymore! : )
Having said all that I am having a blue day. Monty left for Midland for a few days, I am teaching SS on Sunday so I need to get my lesson completed, which is something I usually look so forward to, but just feel a little down today. I have figured out that writing is something that usually makes me feel better when I get down in the dumps and had signed up for a creative writing class on the 15th of June for Tues and Thurs nights until July 8th but they called this morning and cancelled the class because not enough had signed up. I can't even begin to tell you how disappointed I am. I know that life is a wonderful, blessed gift from the Lord. I know that, I am still on this earth because God has a purpose for my life, but I have days when I really struggle to find the motivating factor for my life. I want to be the person I should be in Christ but sometimes the inadequacy I perceive in my soul is overwhelming. Thank you Lord that you see through all the bad stuff and still work through me to reach others for you. Help me be the person you want me to be.
