Talkin' Trash

Lately I feel like I have been on the very brink of madness. There is just a whole lot going on in my life. Disagreements, ill children, grandma's with cancer, dad's with strokes, personal health concerns, etc.

You get the picture.

It's made me irritable, testy, and down right unpleasant to anyone sorry enought to cross my path.

I really hope this is just a season.

Strike that!

My husband really hopes this is just a season. (I think I caught him online shoppin' for shot guns and  caskets!)

Do you ever go through those times where other peoples voices or actions are likened to nails on a chalkboard? Those same voices that at one time tinkled like the sweetest of windchimes riding upon a sultry ocean breeze.

Oscar ain't got nothing on me! I'd so kick that green dust mop out of his pile of tin and convert it to my very own PINK-Pouty-palace- Pail of PMS!

Yep.... I'm that bad right now.

Insetad I want to love.

I do!

I want to love those people that make life difficult. Those people that are hard to love. Those people that scratch on my chalkbaord 24/7.

I am one of those people to someone else . Probably a lot of someone else's he he.

I want the Lord to give me that impossible gift. You know... the one that can only come from God. (Like being a missionary in a Leper colony.) Now if that doesn't have G-O-D written all over it I don't know what does.

I need a major tune-up in the heart department.  I want to esteem others better than myself. The Lord has searched my heart and brought all of the impurities to the surface once again. (He likes to do that you know).

Today is a new day. I'm taking out the trash........ and it's going in Oscar's can!
