Mother always said there will be days like this…

Have I told you guys lately that I have the best readers around, I’m telling ya I really do!! Thank you sooo much for the comments you left for my Mom (see post below). It meant a great deal.

Hope you are having a good Friday. I had the day off from work, but I felt like I “worked” more than when I did go to work. I cleaned the car getting ready to take it on the road for a week, it was overcast here in FL but the humidity was a killer. I felt like I took a bath just vacuuming my car. I did not clean my house today, did not even make the bed, my focus was on getting the car ready, the kids packed, clothes washed, etc.. Well any regular reader knows I have my house for sale (and if you are not a regular reader I am so glad you are here because did I tell you I have the best people that stop here…)..anyways back on topic. Oh yea, my house is for sale and I did not clean my house, you know what that means…Yep you got it, I got a call in the afternoon that they want to show my house in 30 mins.

I did was any self respecting woman in this situation did, one that knew God had everything under His control. I ran around the house like a chicken with their head cut off, and sqwaking the whole time. Dog freaking out, kids hiding, and me almost breaking my Windex bottle over the toilet because I just. can. not. take. this. anymore! Oh girls this is me, real and honest. Windex abuse has become a pasttime, the bottle will never stand upright again. Me neither for that fact

I had to load all the boys, and the dog into the car and then drive across town to take youngest to his reading tutor. I felt like the “Hillbillies Do Florida,” all I needed was the chicken on top. Of course the boys were NOT behaving, there was arguing in the car. “He flicked me,” or “Mom, he won’t stop talking,” and my favorite “Mom, did you know that squirrels have p**is’ (male body part).” Where in the world that came from, I DO NOT KNOW. Must have got this piece of knowledge from their Father, or you know the friends in the neighborhood. Allrightythen…

So now I am sitting on my bed, door shut, kids still arguing in the living room but there is no sign of blood (that is what you look for when you are a Mother of Boys). I am looking around at my clean house thinking, “I have no idea where I stuffed what, it looks good on the outside, but Lordy don’t open any drawers.”

Oh how much is that true in our life. We can look good on the outside, but don’t you dare get any closer or it might all come tumbling down. Some days are just like that, I praise God I have am a servant of the One who will clean out all my drawers for me and I can just rest in his everlasting arms.

So how was your Friday, better than mine I hope =))
