Grumbling and Complaining?

Not a good night. I'm not sure what was wrong but I have my suspicions. Too much going on at the moment and I'm behind the eight ball. I got up at one point and did some things that were on my mind. One was to call in for some presciptions that needed refilling. Gotta love those automated systems that are available 24/7. I had a CBI lesson that needed correcting and should have been mailed back to the prisioner yesterday and it was still on my table W-A-I-T-I-N-G. I got the lesson finished and then came down to my computer to write the required letter. That went well but when it came time to printing it my printer didn't print well and one could only read a part of it. UGH......the time limit is running out and I'm having problems. More stress. I couldn't even scratch that one off my mental list. In between all the times I was up, I tried sleeping in three different places. I talked to God many times about many things thinking perhaps I needed to clear the air with Him or seek His wisdom and guidance. Nothing definitive came.

I haven't been back to Curves since I left for Florida and that is eating at my brain as well. I need to continue to do that for my health. All the printed material for our retreat is being edited for printing and that requires my brain and is stressful because it has to be right. Just stupid stuff like that just grinding at my peace. Somewhere around three, I finally found some rest.

It's eight o'clock in the morning and I just hung up from my sixth phone call. I tell ya, it's just been crazy. I love everyone of the people that call but when I consider my contacts each day, I realize that when things accidently mount up, the busyness causes a consequence. I just need a couple of days to veg. On top of all this is my stupid decision to substitute teach. I don't have time for that and I don't need that hanging over my head each day. I may have to make a definitive decision about that also.

The last phone call was from my friend in the northeastern part of the state. She was sharing all that is going on in their lives. She said she told her husband, "don't think about tomorrow, take on the concerns of today, tomorrow there will be time for the others". Those were words the Lord told us in the good book and ones that are so true. Good advice and timely for me.

I am going up stairs now and will try to get the rest of my Bible study lesson done before I need to be there at nine o'clock. I think I'll do that in the bath tub. :)
