Original plan: Spend all day at Girl Scout camp getting some inspirational training. (Not very glamorous. But it would be a day to myself outside at a camp.)
Change of plans: Canceled training at camp. Too many days away from work due to this week and next week’s doctor’s visits mean I needed all day Saturday to play catchup with work. The plan was to shut the doors to my office while Chris ran the house and the children.
What really happened: There were people who were in need last night and most of the day today. Translation . . . I spent the day by myself trying to work, do housework, and be the “mean” mom to three children while they attempted their chores.
I don’t mind giving for the Lord. Now if only God could add one more day to the week or at least a few hours each day to help me make it to the end of the week. I would be forever grateful!
I’ve tried negotiating with the Lord before and it has never gotten me anywhere. But it certainly doesn’t hurt to try again!
