Mylook Online Keeping in touch with friends. in a christian social network world

  I have thanksgiving dinner at my house each year for the past 20 odd years.  This year I was a little down. I missed my Mom not being here I think,  She is in a nursing home and I really got down when my last Aunt couldn't come because she was in a nursing home with pneumonia.

My cousin who was staying with me while recuperating from a hospital stay announced that he was not going to be at dinner either. He was headed to his home town of the holiday.  

 

I couldn't get a clear count of who was coming and I was stressed because some off my family have special dietary needs.  It turned out fine but everyone was late and I was stressed trying to rewarm everything.  

 

Its the Wednesday after Thanksgiving and I have still not been out of the house.  I pulled my shoulder and strained it somehow.   It turned cold and I don't have much money.  Bills are due and I was in the dumps. I called in to the 4am Prayer Line and I felt a bit better.

 Yesterday I called in and I felt the pain and tension in my arm and shoulder release.   I asked one of the prayer partners later for the fasting plan and I got through the day keeping it.  This morning I was happy to call in and later I am going to crank the old car up and get out of the house.

 

I froze some Thanksgiving dinner for my cousin who is in a group home.  I will take it buy today.  He will love it.  I also need to see about sponsors for my show and my Mark Kay customers.  If there is time I need to see about donors for the Christmas Toy Drive, a paper I need to have notarized and a community service voucher or traffic court.

 

Wish me luck!

Sorry sis but I had a good laugh with this blog. I know you didn't mean it that way. The reason I found it amusing is we have gotten so busy about the details that we've totally lost the true purpose. I do Thanksgiving too. I totally refuse to be stressed. That's MY day. I take my time. It's ready when it's ready & if you want to eat there, you can. If you don't, that leaves more for me. Kinda reminds me of the the Martha & Mary story where Mary was at the feet of Jesus & Martha was all stressed. I'm Mary. I do the stressful stuff but I don't let it stress me. I'm glad you're feeling better. Be blessed--Tammy

Respected friend in Jesus.

The people had been waiting for You for so long. They had the Law and the Prophets. John the Baptist came proclaiming to make straight the way before You. Yet, so many didn't recognize You. Help me to prepare the way in my heart that I may recognize You around me

In Him
