Today wasn't the grandest day ever. Sometimes troubling situations come up and you just have to do what you can to keep your chin up. WELL I started off that way. Kept telling myself and my husband that there was no reason to worry. No reason to fret. God always provides and is always great. God always takes care of us. I kept that "held up" chin through the morning by talking to a couple of friends and exercising. Jamie and I met up for lunch and I was still ok...I had to be because he wasn't...not the best but ok...then it happened.
I was at Aldi and I was getting ready to purchase a cart full of groceries. I had my checkbook in hand and a line of about 6 or 7 people behind me. The clerk rings up all of my things....gives me the total...I go to the write the check and I hear "maam, you do know we dont take checks...right?" In my head Im thinking..."no obviously I dont, and you have let me before, why didnt you tell me when you saw me with my checkbook to begin with"...SO I stood there for a minute, asked if I should put it all back, got laughed at for asking that, and walked out with my Jubilee and no groceries. And that is when my head held high went away...and I went home, fed and changed Juju and put her in her swing, and then I crashed on the couch. We just sat here in the livingroom looping Tarzan for about 3 hours.
That was just the last thing for me! Where I wanted to just close the world away and shut down. Silly huh? But it really happened. All my curtains were closed my cell phone turned down to the lowest it would go without being silent....and I just stayed like that. Over groceries...well over other things...but...wow.
The happy ending to this story is my hubby came home and saw me laying there and he just knew. He just knew that I was over everything. He pulled me off the couch...hugged me...took me to Aldi and helped me get groceries. I love him. I love that he can read me like that and that he understands me.
I also love that we can balance each other out. When he is up im down and vice versa...its good. God is good. All the time.
