Ever just have one of 'those' days? The taxes are $700 more than you were initially told. You come home after a 12 hour day to find cereal encrusted bowls, left over lunch dishes, and bread crumbs littering the counter tops. The dog pees on the floor because no one is bothering to let her out. The expectations you had set for family support are not up held. The laundry basket from now 5 days ago is STILL sitting in the hallway despite repeated attempts to have it put away. You spend the next 2 hours doing laundry, picking up shoes, socks, towels, flip flops, and everything else that is strewn all over. It is too exhausting to ask for help. It is just easier to do it ALL yourself. You miraculously find a way to float that $700 in your check book until pay day in 2 weeks . Afterall it is just assumed that you will fix it. Somewhere in the midst of it all you remember the Bible study you read this morning on 'love is not selfish'. You wonder if by having a 'poor me attitude', if that is considered being selfish? Considering everything up to this point it is easier to error on the side of selfishness. With an hour before bed, you manage a shower and a moment to sit and dump your brains, before accidentally hitting some key that erases most everything you just dump.
goodnight. Because at this point it is best to get to tomorrow as quickly as possible, for tomorrow is a NEW day!
