Do you ever have those days where you wake up and you already ready for it to be bedtime again? Well - that was me today. I woke up grumpy and not wanting to do anything but go back to bed. I wasn't angry per say...I just felt blah.
I thought about the Christmas spirit and I thought about doing something thoughtful for someone. And then I thought, "Ahhh!" I thought about all the sweet comments I've received about the blog and how people enjoy reading it and how it's helpful...then I thought about how behind I was in posting. And then I thought, "Ahhhh!" I was completely unmotivated.
I got to work and got sucked into the vortex of busy...and my day went by without my having even left for lunch. And I thought, "Ahhh!'
I got in the car with those wonderful San Antonio drivers and then it hit me that even though I was feeling apathetic, I could be nice while driving. I let a record number of six people get in front of me...without honking, yelling or even looking mean at someone. At a red light, a lady in a red Toyota Corolla caught my attention. She was wiping the inside of her windshield like the dickens. She would wipe, wipe, wipe...stop and look. Wipe, wipe, wipe...stop...spray the outside and let the wipers wipe for a while...then wipe, wipe, wipe the inside again. From where I was sitting, it looked pretty darn clean. So I prayed for her to have peace and that the Lord's favor be upon her...and that He help her get whatever she thought was on her windshield off - for good!
And that is all I did today...it was all I had in me. I think it's okay. I didn't go postal on someone. I didn't yell at anyone. I was just okay...and I'm okay with that.
Until tomorrow...
Annie
