I Know You've Missed This

Tuesday's Truths

I have issues.
Last night I slept like 3 hours and that's probably why I'm doing this post.
I get really excited about things that I know I shouldn't, and then I'm twice as angry with myself and the world when things go wrong.
I think my life is one eternal lesson about patience...And to be frankly honest I'm tired of waiting...I'd like for once to acquire something without having to wait and beg and plead and be humbled and tried.
Apparently I'm feeling rather sorry for myself this week!
I know God has heard my prayers and I know He will answer them. It's the waiting and the second guessing and the submitting to "His Will" that I struggle with.
After an entire summer of sitting around, I'm finally getting the chance to take my kids camping. It's supposed to snow in the mountains and be very cold, and I couldn't be more excited. Maybe the cold crisp mountain air will help clear my head. Even if the mountains and the cold crisp air can't clear my head, I welcome the diversion from sitting on my couch wasting away!
Something tells me it's about time for a gratitude post...I can see that I'm entirely focused on what I don't have, when I know my focus needs to be on the many wonderful things I do have.

For the record..I actually think you are one of the most patient people I know!
I am way excited for you! I love camping and every time I go it is either raining or way cold and I think it makes it even funner! I hope you guys have a good time!! :)

Ah, you are SO not alone. I hate this whole patience thing. It's getting REALLY old!
