Status Report - October

Sitting:  at my desk, waiting for coffee.

Thinking:  Hurry up, coffee.

Sensing:  the heavy bags under my eyes.

Wondering:  if I can wait until after noon to nap.

Debating:  which pet ought to be strangled first; the cat who decided to have a full blown fight out on the deck at 2:30, waking the entire house, or the Beagle who thought it was time to get up and whined for the next four hours.

Wishing:  the other cat had slept past 5:30 so that I could get more sleep.

Asking myself:  why I have pets.

Deciding:  that it's ironic that I've been pondering God's goodness in all things as I grumbled about being kept awake.

Telling anyone who wants to know:  don't wake up 47 year old women at 2:30 a.m.; they may or may not get back to sleep.

Glad:  that Canadian Thanksgiving is this weekend, but even more glad that I don't have to do my shopping for a couple of more days.  It's going to be a long day today.

Perplexed:  about many things, mostly people, and how I don't understand them even thought I am one of them.

Hoping:  that somday the fifteen year old girl in me will learn to just get over things.

Counting on:  this coffee to get me started this morning so I can prepare my lesson for Sunday, "How to Study a Psalm."

Thanking God:  for coffee, and for having a comfy house, comfy bed, and loving husband in the midst of being kept awake by unruly pets.

Looking forward:  to reading Carl Trueman's newest book about creeds and confessions.

Tasting:  my freshly brewed coffee and deciding that the beans were not ground finely enough, and that this cup of coffe is weak.  This may be a two pot day today.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who still has a 15-year old girl inside her!

Jealous: that you are reading Trueman's new book right now and I haven't gotten around to ordering that one yet!
Happy: That there are other women out there who's emotion's are so oriented by the quantity and quality of their coffee :)
