I've worked four days in a row... class Wednesday, class Thursday, then working the store all day Friday and Saturday with a demo/make-it-and-take-it thrown in for good measure this morning.
I am SO not cut out for working that much. It makes me tired. And I feel totally unable to manage my household with any sort of consistency.
Add to that the fact that this is the week that all the school variety show rehearsals come to critical mass - with two early morning dress rehearsals.
Oh - and the school newspaper is due this week.
Calgon - take me away!!!
Asia's taking me out to dinner tonight. That will be good. Love date night.
I'm so thankful that my job is generally one where I'm only at work a couple of days a week. I realize this is a luxury. I'm so grateful for my husband's job, which provides for us and frees me up to be a nearly full-time caretaker of our home. I cannot take this for granted. I know I am very blessed.
Thank you Jesus, that you give us everything we need. And that I can concentrate on being a Mom and a wife and taking care of our home. Thank you that You sustained me this week. You give me strength - and a sense of humor - and so many blessings. Amen.

ReplyDeleteenjoy date night!
I was just talking about 'managing the home' and working this morning. And thinking about it made my head hurt. I love that you point me to the Lord in so many ways :)
ReplyDeleteHey Cathy-
ReplyDeleteI worked 3.5 days this week and by thursday evening at 6:30 pm had fallen asleep on the couch after crying my eyes out... I only have 2 more weeks of covering for my friend's holiday and I have some time off for spring break, but whew, I am with you in the not knowing how to do both...I finally cooked Sunday night for the first time in 3 weeks. I too am thankful that I have not felt the need to work full-time in the last decade.
I am off to Kez's school to meet with the teacher and try to clean my house before b&b guests on wednesday - and I work 3 days this week too....Father carry me!
