Today was good. Busy workday, but a productive end of the work week. Looking back, it was a stressful week: stalled car, scarce dollars, empty cabinets, headaches, twice forgetting to take my son's cup to daycare, two wet-bed accidents from my 3-year old (middle of night and early morning), last-minute laundry and grocery errands on the way to work, and low gas...argghh! But I made it through with sanity intact and some laughs and love mixed in. Oh, and a good performance review at work. Thank God.
Small pleasures today:
Oh my goodness, the Oscar Meyer deli creations "flatbread chicken w/ bacon ranch sauce" Delicious! Every one of the deli creations that I've tried has been excellent. Two for $5.00 is decent too!
Ahh! Had to stop at Safeway on the way to taking Monte to daycare. They had that new coffee that we got as a sample in Silver Spring--Seattle's Best. I had no idea about all the varieties, but I was pleased to see a mark-down bin full of ground and whole beans for $3.99 each. On the aisle shelf I'd passed them over because I couldn't afford them at nearly $9.00 for a smallish bag.
Another treat, I got four Kit Kat bars for $1.80, less than .50 cents each. Don't see that nowadays. I'll give three to my family.
Grace and Light:
I'm thankful for my family and friends for so many reasons. I'm so appreciating the peace that comes when praying to God. Our family so needs God's comfort and strength as my dad enters hospice. Thankful that he didn't have to stay at the first dismal, inadequate long-term care facility and a that a quality hospice has arranged to care for him. God bless my father and his care team. Bless Mom as well as we all trust you to carry us through and address our immediate needs. May we also be useful in service to you in a demonstration of your love to others. Amen.
