I can't put my finger on exactly why this week has been so hard for me. There's nothing really in particular that made it hard, it just was. I had a significant decrease in sleep...because I'm such a night owl that I have a hard time put myself to bed. Due to that, I also had no motivation to do anything around the house. It's frustrating having a perpetual mess. Plus the mess then gets overwhelming because I haven't done anything about it and I get so overwhelmed that I don't do anything about cleaning it up. Aaargh...
Writing lists doesn't always help either. I make them, but quite often do not accomplish everything on them. The cycle just keeps on going.
I'm also stressing a little because I start an online class on Monday...Intercultural Communication. I want my house to be somewhat in order before it starts because I know that the next 8 weeks will be jam-packed with homework.
Part of me wonders if I'm under some kind of spiritual warfare. My quiet time hasn't been very consistent lately and my mood is rather blah. I find myself on days like this letting the loneliness overtake me and just burrowing into myself. Allowing the blahs to become my decision makers for me..I guess you could say. So tomorrow I plan on starting my day with a good cup of coffee and my Bible and Jesus! May all of you be able to have some good time with the One who gives peace and reassurance tomorrow too!

Inga, you're an inspiration! I pray that God will lift you up and that you will experience Joy- even through hardship and "busy-ness". It is so easy to fall into the trap of feeling sorry for ourselves, or letting the things we don't have (and want) control our attitude. Remember that Christ is our Joy, our Hope, and our comforter- He has made you strong and courageous. -Em
