Now let me present the "To Do List that actually got To Do'd"

• Be thankful I'm not the lady next door getting an IV because I'm pucking my guts out and I'm pregnant


• Be told by a nurse I get to leave the line in my arm until after my infusion Friday. When I tell her I'm a Mom to three littles, she just says, "I'll wrap it really well."

• Smile about the thought of my lug of butter loving to cuddle


• Watch church online with M1 (husband)


• Sit in bed while my house sleeps typing this post and think "I should definitely stop drinking coffee before bed


• Then decide I will stop when it becomes super hot


• I need a pedicure


• Listen to M1 sleep


• Thank God


• Don't scratch a single item of the list because everything happened so fast you forgot a pen

After my convo with God this morning and then the way things happened, one might say to ones self "Hmm, this is not what I pictured today looking like." So as Matt is driving us back to The Ville, I said to myself "Hmm, this is not what I pictured today looking like."

So as I wiggle my tongue like a horse with peanut butter in the mouth only I have metal in mine, I will end with this...

Psalm 144: 3-4 "O Lord, what are human beings that you should notice them, mere mortals that you should think about them? 4 For they are like a breath of air; their days are like a passing shadow." NLT

Life is short. David reminds us that it is "like a breath" and that our "days are like a passing shadow." Because life is short, we should live for God while we have the time. Don't waste your life by selecting an inferior purpose that has no lasting value. Live for God- He alone can make your life worthwhile, purposeful, and meaningful. -YouVersion Bible App
