I'm grabbing onto any joy I can find right now...

The Bible says to do EVERYTHING without grumbling or complaining. Inside I'm complaining about life.  It's hard.  Oops, see, there I go!

So, I'm embracing joy.

The joy of dog sitting for a friend and using her pool

And loving on this one...

and sweet puppy kisses

and swimming puppies, I mean COME ON!!

and last-minute "can my son come swimming with you at your friends pool you are crashing"

Well since he is one of T's favorite humans OF COURSE we will come and get Everett!!

and he loves dogs so much, it made it even MORE fun!!!

and then we dropped dogs, grabbed clubs and went to his lesson.

I won't be able to afford this very long but I'm going to do it as long as we can.

It will serve him now, and then later in life when he's at meetings or out with buddies.  It will serve him. And it's beautiful and by our house, it's free!

There is a lot jumping around in my brain. BIG I mean, life-altering HUGE decisions.  Ones I don't trust myself to make alone. I'm processing with friends, my community, and with God.

Corona has done a number on us all but this has been a long time coming. Much to consider, much to process, much to be obedient about.  I'm not alone even though feel it.  I don't have to be depressed, I can feel hopeful.  See, here I go again.

No grumbling, no complaining.  Prayer is needed.  Off I go.

Thank yiou Lord for the little things.
