Good Morning Friends, Neighbors and Countrymen...lend me your ears.
Starting the day with one on one quiet time with my hunny is something I haven't done in a very long time. Taking that time to reconnect as partners and friends meant the world to me, this morning. Mark took the day off work, today, so that he wouldn't be late for Mariah's back to school night function, tonight. We got up together, this morning, when he could have just as easily stayed in bed and let me get up to see our daughter off to school.....but he got up too!! After she left, he asked me for coffee and breakfast. So I made him some sausage and french toast and coffee and we sat at the kitchen table and took our meal together. I honestly loved spending the time with Mark. It made me feel loved and special...needed and appreciated. It felt good to begin the day, at the table, with Mark, meeting his needs and allowing him to meet mine.
It's a beautiful day out, today.....I am wondering if I can get the love of my life to take a walk with me, or something, just to get out of the house, for a time....Maybe get some exercise. He's asleep on the couch right now and the fresh mountain air would do him good! I'm glad he gets to rest a little bit extra, this week. He works so hard, to support us. I am so proud of the man of God he has become.
I had another great day yesterday....I overdid it at dinner, with my calories, but I asked for forgiveness and I forgave myself and today is a whole new day. I am really good at being negative with myself and I need to change that. Yesterday is gone....no matter how much I try, I will never ever be able to go back and change another thing about it. I can only go forward, learn from my mistakes and try again, today!! I'm not giving up....
Well, I had better git to the housework. It's not going to clean itself. I'm sorry that it's short today...I haven't a lot to say....My challenge to you, today is to tell someone three things you are thankful for....and I'll tell you mine, right now.....
1. I am thankful for Mariah's hair all over the bathroom sink, because she is here and not in Texas.
2. I am thankful for Mark's snoring, because he is beside me and not somewhere else.
3. I am thankful for dirty dishes because I have had the opportunity to serve my family and warm them from the inside.
Tell someone you love them today.....It means so much to hear it.
Love like He loves....
Blessings in Him,
Lisa
