My day wasn't great and neither will be tomorrow...
I messed up a job last week and im in the process of fixing it...:oops:

But its all good... Chin up and get the job done cos everyone makes a mistake every now and then... Its a trait of being human

I wonder if God made mistakes when he built the universe... My instinct says no but he might have... Who knows

Though He's so awesome...I don't think He's ever made a mistake. I do think He's beyond our capability to comprehend.
"8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts." - Isaiah 55:8-9

Another really good day, talking with the volunteers and staff who have become like my family.

K got me a really nice card with a plantable seed envelope. The envelope can be planted! It's so kind of her to hear that I wanted a plant and then give me something like that.

My husband is home today from working and we were able to do errands and enjoy time together.

My new habit of washing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen each time I use them is starting is really satisfying because my kitchen is now always clean.

Im starting to really enjoy cleaning and cleanliness as a lifestyle.

One really good habit I had when I was younger that I did just now was mindful chewing.

As a kid, I wanted to make the eating experience last as long as possible so I chewed really well. But I also didn't eat as much, since I would feel full quicker.

Well, I have decided that I want to continue living so I can help those who are overwhelmed with pain, illness, and facing possible death. This is worth suffering for. Before I know it, this life will be gone.

@Truman Great verse there; thank-you.

No, I mean chewing regular food, but chewing it really well and savouring it rather than gobbling it down.
@Wynona

Oh okay...

I know that you have ideas about what is and is not ladylike; I guess some ppl might think chewing gum was not ladylike, supposedly. (A bit like arguments about pants and tattoos among really strict Fundamentalists, I suppose...)

Lol Even I chew gum at times.

I guess God looks at the heart. Its no use having long hair and skirts if you're mean as a snake. But that's my comfort zone.

@Wynona Great that you get along well with other coworkers; not everyone has this advantage...

Today, K came over to see me and my husband and we had a great time.

We mainly talked how we met and got married about her suitor and how she should handle his interest in her.

I made some scratch made cornbread and we really had fun. It's so good to finally have friends that are high quality that Im proud to show off.

She even brought a gift with her! She is definitely a special person.

I had some very good friends, but...eventually, they walked away from me. I wasn't pushing Jesus on them, though in the end that's what I was accused of. I just would no longer join in with them in reindeer games.
No more red noses for me, thank you. Though a rum and coke would taste pretty good right about now. I've found something much better than anything the world could offer!

It did, as I knew them from childhood, but we were bad boys...at least one of us grew up. It was a relief, too, as I knew it was coming. They were in their 50's and they were acting like teenagers. Oh well! Lol Hey! I can call them heathens, though they would probably like that.
