Beautiful Day!

Good Morning World! I am in love with my creator! He has BLESSED me in so many ways.

And yet, I feel grouchy this morning. What is up with this? Maybe because I stayed up too late and have been staying up too late for a bout a week now? Or because the girls were sick and I'm still recovering? And the fact that I had a chiro treatment yesterday and then went and cleaned house right after. Yeah, that was dumb! OUCH! Lol! Ah, well, life goes on.

So my to do list is pretty long today. And since I am kinda stuck at home (I left my purse at mom's), it's time some things got done. The yard needs a little help and it's really been a while since we had to mow but parts of it need to be mowed. Oooohh, hard work! Might take 20 minutes, lol! That was sarcasm for those of you that can't hear my voice. My yard isn't big enough to be considered a yard if you would ask my opinion, but there is some grass there at least. I love big spaces where you can lay in the grass and stare up at the sky.  I should really trim some branches too, there is almost no sunshine hitting the ground in front of the house. Yes, it's nice to have shade but there is mold growing on the side of the shed because it just can't dry out very well. And the bottom of the trailer is very wet! Not good!

So anyway- there are dishes sitting on the counter waiting for someone with enough courage to wash them. They stayed there yesterday because I had quite the busy day and was exhausted when I got home. Still--- there should be a 'no excuses' law in this household with punishments attached. Maybe I would get more done that way, lol. I seriously have struggled with my self-discipline since Ronnie has been gone. Before that, the thought of 'I don't feel like it' was not even there. Then along came Ronnie and just totally TOOK it from me. BEWARE- the power of association!!  It is really powerful!! Now the work involved to get it back is strange indeed! My mom had taught me as a child not to make excuses but this time I have to teach myself and let God do some work in me to change mindsets. God has done so much already this past year, but I know there is still a long way to go. And I am thankful every day for all HE does!

I wish I could change my circumstances immediately, but God says I have to work harder for it, oh darn, lol! 

And now- OH MY! Elijah has poison oak all over his face! What do I do to get through to this child STOP SCRATCHING!!! He keeps scratching and scratching and has had it now for almost a month. I am so at my wit's end with him. He is so allergic to it, he could literally die if I don't deal with it and he doesn't seem to get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Steroids is the only thing that has knocked it out yet this year....he got a cream a few weeks ago, but it hasn't taken care of it.HELP!! Why!!!!!??? I have enough to do without having to put stuff on his face every hour. And since it's right by his eyes, I don't even know if I should! I'd rather cry right now then deal with this again!!!

And here I titled this post beautiful day..... yes, it still is, it's just looking a little discouraging to me at the moment. Hope you all have a good Saturday- those who might read this, lol!
