Defining “Free”...
Feeling overwhelmed all I could do last night was cry. Wishing I had rethought my intentions for gifts and run to Wal-Mart, I sobbed at Mark, “There’s so much to do!!” My daily chores have gone to the wayside as I have been so focused on the production line that was once my dining room table. Mountains of laundry moving like the blob has taken over the living room leaving nothing but a mass of destruction behind. Surrounded by clutter created by my own creative measures, I sat there defeated….. by my one accord.
It was then my own words crept through my mind……”the gifts don’t make Christmas.” Chuckling at the irony and the sting of my thought gave Mark cause to wonder if I had really lost my mind. The “free” Christmas was beginning to cost me only because I had not planned as well as I had thought. Time is pressing and I am being left behind…… A free Christmas is proving not to be stress “free.” It would be so easy to run out and get the gifts that I need……..but with God’s help, I will finish………especially after a good night’s sleep, a new day has been given for me to complete what I have started…….
Guess I should get busy…….
God Bless…..
