I have turned into a really, really bad housekeeper and often take the Scarlet O’Hara attitude. I’ll think about it tomorrow. Today, I’d rather….do anything else. I used to love to clean the house. It made me feel like I had accomplished something. Of course, I had more energy back then. I also required my girls to help as soon as they were old enough to learn how and I made them pick up their things. To hear them tell it, I was a slave driver. I know I’m doing my grandchildren a disservice by allowing them get away with leaving their stuff everywhere. Sometimes it’s just easier to let it go. Of course, it’s not the best or wisest thing to do. Perhaps I’ll encourage them be more responsible starting tomorrow (right after I pick up my stuff, of course). Hubby just left for work and asked me to lock the door behind him. “We don’t want anyone to come in and trip over something in the dark and sue us,” he teased.
Eldest daughter went to the emergency room with severe stomach pain yesterday. It appears it may be her gall bladder. Hopefully, she will be able to get into a gastroenterologist tomorrow. Please keep her in your prayers along with my friend, Sandra’s son, who is in ICU in Corpus Christi.
Today is the third anniversary of the death of my best friend from high school. Kristy was so generous with her love and time for others. She always looked for the best in people and was a great encourager. I met her when I was in eighth grade confirmation class. She was an answer to prayer. It was the first time I ever had a best friend. I have to smile when I think of the times we laughed so hard, especially at ourselves. She introduced me to a group of girl friends that were my salvation in high school. I was painfully shy and needed friends so badly. I thank God for bringing her into my life and I look forward to seeing her in heaven. For those in my family who knew Kristy, I found the link below to a memorial set up by Olivia in her honor.
