Funny how I just haven't felt like saying much lately but yet I seem to have so much to think about. I spent this weekend working at the fireworks tent for my church. It's a huge fund raiser and is a chance for me to get to see people I haven't seen in years. But, I stood up there working the cash register and watching people as they came and went....
You know what's funny?? We take so much for granted... One lady came in with a friend and 3 little kids and they were pretty scuzzy lookin and she couldn't afford anything in there but she bought each of the kids a punk (It's like an incense, really slow burning lighter for fireworks) and said here ya go... The little ones were happy with that...
And I was whining because I wanted to go buy subway cause my stomach was growlin... and then my husband and I bought quit a few fireworks to put on for our kids... So... guess it has just stuck with me how much I have and don't give thanks for.
Im thankful for my family, my friends, my church, my job, my home, for everything that God has blessed me with... I have soo much to learn and I am still struggling with the "J" situation... but I am sooo thankful that God has been merciful and I am soooo trying to get my life back on track....
But at the end of the holiday time, I just felt like saying "WHEW" I made it through that... now onto another day... Just a thought :-)
