My week

Yes, this post is titled my week even though it is only Tuesday. So far...it hasn't been great. Yesterday, woke up at 6 to be at work at 6:40. Dropped stuff all day. Had a bad hair day. Today, woke up at 7:30. Left to go to work at 8:45. Had no umbrella. Got soaking wet. Made it to work at 8:50. Dropped stuff all morning. Had another bad hair day. Went home for lunch to check the mail expecting a check. Check wasn't there. Almost killed a puppy for almost pooping on the floor. Was late back to work because puppy took 10 minutes to find a spot to poop outside. Dropped stuff all afternoon. Went to school. Is it bad that all I have thought about today is all the stinky stuff that has happened in the past couple days? OF COURSE!! So, God is humbling me...Thank you, God :) After the past couple of days, it really makes me realize all of the good things throughout these two days. 1. I have a job--Oh my goodness! What a blessing. A lot of people don't get to say that right now. 2. I have 2 adorable puppies who (even though they like to test my patience) they help brighten my day. 3. I have a loving husband who is faithful and patient. 4. I have the sence of smell. 5. I have the ability to bend over and pick things up off the floor. 6. I have the capability to drive because a) I am not paralized and b) I have a car. 7. I have food to eat. 8. I am getting an education. 9. I am able to see (my hair, even on a bad day).

Isn't it funny how all of the "bad" things that I went through have made it so foggy that I could hardly see the good stuff. God is always testing me and humbling me and I can't thank Him enough for putting things into perspective for me.

"5May God, who gives this patience and encouragement, help you live in complete harmony with each other as it's fitting for followers of Jesus Christ. 6Then all of you can join together with one voice, giving praise and glory to God, the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ." Romans 15:5-6
