surrounded

yes it’s true another post in one day because  like all I have is time on my hands..

This morning I woke with a sense of discontentment. You know the kind, “here we go again.”

Didn’t head straight for the Word..(there’s the first problem..) and didn’t head to the fridge either which is surprising although there’s not much in there to choose from right now.

Both Trooper and Sissy where ready for their oatmeal breakfast but mom didn’t want to get up and make it.

Instead  I asked them to settle for cold cereal, which they could provide for themselves.

Four and Five years old and they can get everything they need in arms reach...Trooper decided to ask if he could make his own oatmeal and if I hadn’t already said “cereal” I may have said yes..but because I had just finished reading this post at a dear friends blog..I stood firm. TY Lisa ;)

Then a few hours go by and I’m sitting here craving like a crazy prego women (NO~ I’m just stir crazy..not one of them.) a burger, fries and Dr.P…which I haven’t had in a few weeks now..this is where the phone rings and it’s another df whom is just calling to ck in on me..find out how I’m doing and what’s what. I devulge what I’m craving and she instantly spills into “this would not be good for the temple” and “your on a roll and you don’t really want that your just bored and you are looking great and on and on..”

Did I mention that before this special operation I asked her to continue to encourage me while we where trail hiking..to not fall of the wagon during this time.

Perfect timing.

Ok..but I still wanted it.

After this..my dh calls to ck in on us and as you just read I told him..before hanging up he said “why not take a little walk down the road with the kids ..just a little.”

Obviously…I’m not supposed to sit here with my thoughts.

 

After getting up  eating a banana with some peanut butter..got dressed and went for that walk..while the kids rode bikes.

The sunshine felt good there was a cool breeze and the short amount of exercise really cleared my head.

So why the title?

Today I feel I’m surrounded by all the help needed to make it through this chapter in my life..and I just love that!
