"This room is a mess and I want it cleaned up tonight before you do anything else."
Well of course he has track meets and yards to mow and homework to do, so I give him until the weekend. Then I look into my room and the bed isn't made, there are clothes to put away and the bathroom needs cleaned. WOW! I feel rather foolish. And so today I will get my house in order.
But today is my standing date lunch with my knight and so that takes a chunk out of my day. Don't get me wrong, I love my date lunch and wouldn't change it for the world, it's just that I think I would get more done if I didn't have to stop in the middle of the day to spend time with my hubby. That's the problem though, I don't get things done that need to be done and the things that could wait is what I want to do. Like read and write and learn new things about the Internet and blogging. For some reason I feel God is saying to learn what I can so I can show others how to do it. If God wants me on the computer then who am I to say no? Really now, do you believe that God wants me on the computer? I am wondering though why I have this desire to learn about Tweeter, FaceBook, LinkedIn and blogging. Is it that I have a need to connect with people or is it that I just want to write out my thoughts so I can better understand me?
The mind is a terrible thing to waste...who said that? As I get older I must actively pursue new things so my mind doesn't turn to mush. My parents are avid readers and are constantly on the go at 81 and 76. I want to be like them...I want my marriage to be like theirs and so I must forge on to open my mind and heart to new things.
My Interpretation:
I don't want to waste my time on things that don't matter but I need to take time to figure out what does really matter ...to God!
Your parents are so cute! God wants you to learn about blogging, etc so you can teach me - seriously. The thought had already crossed my mind to get you to show me some things!
