Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

FREEDOM

Last week, Isabelle had plans to sleep over at Mimi's house, but...poor Mimi was feeling under the weather the morning of. I had BIG plans that day, which of course went down the toilet. Ugh!

Today was my second chance at freedom. I made no plans. I had no agenda. And I puttered, and meandered, and sat in the sun, and enjoyed the quiet. Now I'll be honest and let you know that my dining room table looks like a fabric store has vomited its entire inventory across it, my floors are an absolute mess, the winter/summer boxes are halfway taken care of...and the list goes on and on. For every step forward I take, there are about a hundred more pulling me right back! I feel so frustrated sometimes! But I know it's also good to enjoy the quiet sometimes and let those other things sit just a while longer.

I better get to replacing that toilet paper roll some unknown child gifted me with in the downstairs bathroom, though, because that wasn't so much fun.
HaHaHa

These things were fun.

Oh, and these things are making me downright giddy!
Or how I attempted to deal with it here?

Now if I move a tad to the left...
...more stupid signs
Those forsythia bushes are going to be HUGE! The sooner the better!
I try so hard to be patient and kind, but those signs are just plain mean and they make me so upset I could spit. I won't, but still...I could.

Now I'm off to go do some boy stuff with my fellas!

Ugh, sorry about your neighbor. We've got a couple homes for sale in our neighborhood. HAHA! I can totally relate with your comment about one step forward and two back. I have been feeling that the list is so long that whatever I do will not even make a dent. Sometimes that feeling is so overwhelming I just freeze and can't do anything. Ahh, but it's all there for me when I am ready to deal with it.
