Oh for a quiet Saturday

I was so non-productive today its gotta be sinful!  Jeremy was home, which is wonderful in itself, and I woke up feeling tired and unwell.  I spent a few hours wrangling kids while he went uptown this am, then he came home and I napped from 1-4:30!  I can't believe I slept that long, must be fighting a bug.  What a wonderful husband and father to let me get that well-needed rest.  Of course now its 9pm and I'm awake and semi productive.  N and Joey and I cleaned out the main floor toy bins tonight, I've got two bins of baby toys to donate to the pregnant teens program this week.  I wonder if they will take them?  Now I'm washing found winter clothes and going to put up two shelves and two storage stands to keep my clutter down.  Dh went to our friend Warren's house, the insecure me is trying to slip into old abandonment patterns, but hubby needs some guy time, too.  I know it but the old me wants to be jealous and angry.

Patience means that I am willing to wait.
Patience means that love is worth working for.

I've been procrastinating and putting off an assignment for one of my Master's courses.  Why do I do this?  I like to think that I work better under pressure, but its always looming doom until I get it done.  Its always another thing in the back of my mind to worry about.  And once the assignment is done, I will be pleased and say I'll never do that again, but course after course, assignment after assignment I repeat this old pattern.  Well, its no longer serving me well.  Tomorrow a classmate and I will work together and get it done.  She's much further ahead than I am, but I am willing and able to change this pattern.  Lord, help me get this assignment done tomorrow, let the words and ideas come easily to me, help me do a better job of getting my school work done, Lord.  Amen.
