Guaranteed

While folding clothes tonight at 11pm, with a good attitude(which is not often how I fold clothes), God blessed me with a cool though. Please follow my thought process...I am folding and thinking to myself which I do alot of b/c I shouldn't be thinking it much less saying it out loud.
Tim sure does have alot of clothes, especially tshirts and underwear and those are the things he always wants more of. I can't keep them clean. He is sure to ask me about once a week if he has any clean underwear, mind you there are 37 pair of underwear in the drawer!. My usual answer is look in the drawer, well he doesn't like those, so whatever. I need to do laundry more often so he will have underwear. And t shirts. He says, I don't guess I have any clean t shirts do I? Thats his way of asking nicely why I haven't done the laundry lately. Let me side note here. I know that Tim loves me and doesn't ask these things the way I take them, Satan comes to steal kill and destroy and I know that my battle is not against flesh and blood but against satan. Okay. So the cool thing that GOd showed me while I was folding clothes with a good attitude was that I can be thankful for Tim asking me about clean underwear and t shirts on a weeklly basis b/c that just reminds me that HE NEEDS ME!. He needs me...that is so cool. I know its simple but its guaranteed that he needs me b/c he will always need clean underwear and t shirts.
Thanks you God for that tonight.

The Nose is overrated

Catchy title, huh!?! That is not what I want to talk about but it is what is consuming me and causing much discomfort. I suppose its allergy related which is what we are calling everything right now. My nose feels to be the size of a baseball and feels like a water balloon all tied up and ready to be thrown at someone. Occasionally there is a leak in the "balloon" and I revert to a 2nd grader who has snot all over herself. Its really embarrassing. And then there's the sound of a bullfrog or a scary man that comes out of my mouth. I like to keep it real so there it is. Tomorrow when I see patients for the first time this week Im sure I will be explaining that I am not sick, just allergies. Oh, and Zyrtec is the preferred treatment for a breastfeeding mother and guess what!?! It wired me for sound last night and you can't take another dose within 24 hrs. so that leaves me without help until morning. I didn't sleep well last night so what is one more night. We'll see if the meds work for the daytime hours and I can get some relief. If the snot turns green, which indicates infection, then I don't even have to go to my dr. , She will call in an antibiotic for me...isn't that awesome!! So..
I think I will discuss "Blessings" next blog...who knows, it may be another month and something else will have my affection.
