Simply annoyed

What a night! I'm simply annoyed by the pain, the manner in which I have been let down by my body. How does this happen? Why to me? I had so many expectations for the week. I planned to finish the table, the boards, the lamp for my mom, the painting, repair the back door, paint the kitchen, plant a garden, and for three days I have done nothing other than be tormented by this excruciating pain on my back and now today it has traveled to my shoulder. not related but because I can't sleep straight so I try and sleep twisted to accommodate the area hurt which results in more soreness. On top of all this JD has family picnic today and that is very important to me. I've never missed any of his events. Dave has offered to go in my place and take the green blanket that we always use, his lunch and spend that time with him. Broken hearted I am but happy that JD will have one of us there. I on the other hand will be here at home trying desperately to stretch this mess out in hopes that tonight I may feel no pain. last time this happened it only took 3 days, well it is day 3 and what is taking it soooo long? Sitting here is now painful when it wasn't yesterday. Urkks me. Just simply annoyed by the whole matter. I want my life back!

Boring day. My back is out. Hurt it yesterday while spray painting the stools. Whatever I did has left me in severe pain. I couldn't even get in the car to drive Michelle to school this morning. was painful. Didn't sleep, cried last night, but dave stuffed me with Tylenol which just isn't helping. I think I'll get him to bring some Tylenol PM, or Aleve when he gets home. I pulled out a roast for dinner, I'm out of diet coke. Not good! JD is home with me. Had accident at school One more day of school and finally he will be home safe with mommy. I was saddened to hear about my close friends and their breakup. That just hurts my own heart. Krissy should be home soon and with friends. sounds like fun but also sounds like I need to fix snacks, maybe nachos. That would be easy. I was deeply touched when Brad said I cook take JD with me to camp since we didn't have a sitter for him, but looks like it all worked out. Mom will schedule doctors appointments for when I get back, Michelle will sit with JD and Dave will take them to work two of the days. Mom will come and sit for one of the days. Looks like I am camp bound after all. I feel annoyed because I am not able to finish the painting and the house repairs as planned because of my back pain. I'm not very good at not doing something. I need to be working. I look over at the unfinished tasks and it just frustrates me. God please relieve me from this pain so that I can continue my work.

JD's series of unfortunate events

JD has had a series of mishaps since my time off from school. During recess he ran into an electrical box that left him with a nice bump on the head. This weekend he visited a friend and fell off a slide, got the air knocked out of him and a sore back. Today the school nurse called with a kiting accident. seems someone else's kite fell and the string landed on JD's neck and as the child pulled the string, it cut his neck leaving a nice big gash, burn. The heat and sweat didn't seem to help the situation. I therefore did what mommy's do and went to school and brought him home to put an ice pack on it and medicine. Teacher however said not good reason to take him home. wellllll. I think not.

Inspiring thought

So many women today were not taught how to run a household efficiently while in the care of their mothers. God gives guidelines for how a virtuous woman lives. Proverbs 31 is an empowering look at the role of women. Not only is a virtuous woman righteous in the Lord, but she is a loving wife and mother, a smart shopper, a seamstress, a gardener, a good housekeeper, and trains her children with wisdom. Her husband appreciates her and can praise her to his associates and friends because she is worthy of praise. Is this attainable for the average Christian woman? Absolutely! All things are possible through Christ. We can all be "Proverbs 31 women."
