A Whole New Way!

"It's a dirty job, but somebody's gotta' do it"

Doing the laundry can be quite a task for anyone. I'm sure you ladies out there can relate. Okay, so I'm doing the laundry cheerfully and carefully folding, organizing and what not. Days past, I start focusing on other housework. Days past some more, and some more and more until finally I catch myself thinking, "Hmm, why not just start folding the clean and dry laundry and putting it back in the dryer! I've got so much laundry piled up here already. We, can always get rid of our dresser, it would save money and it's so big...it's taking up space." When you start thinking like that and when your Husband wakes up in the morning to go to work, and makes his way to the dryer to pick out something to wear, you know you've got problems! My Husband shouldn't have to fumble through that big box every morning to find his clothes. He should be able to get up in the morning, walk right over to his closet and find nice and neatly folded and or hung up (dry -mildew-free) clothes to choose from. I've got SEVERAL loads to wash, dry and fold as I type this thing. *Sigh* Procrastination stinks! Hmm...I think I smell something funny coming from the laundry room....



Proverb
s 10-11:

10
"A little sleep, a little slumber,

a little folding of the hands to rest—

11and poverty will come on you like a bandit

and scarcity like an armed man."

  • Proverbs 6:6-8:

"Go to the ant, you sluggard;

consider its ways and be wise!

7It has no commander,

no overseer or ruler,

8yet it stores its provisions in summer

and gathers its food at harvest."

  • Proverbs 18:9:

"One who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys."

  • Proverbs 10:4:

"Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth."

A Rocky Start

"Tomorrow tomorrow, I love ya' tomorrow, your always a day away."

Yes, tomorrow I am very much looking forward to, why? Because it's not today. Today isn't going so well. Ever have those days? You know, the days where you have a preconceived notion that everything is going to be rainbows and sunshine? Then, you find, the moment your feet hit the floor in the morning it crumbles underneath you and you crash. Well, I felt that way this morning when I awoke and attempted to make my way into the kitchen to prepare breakfast. I thought I was going borderline insane. Too much oil, not the right consistency, flours everywhere, too many eggs, 6:35am...pancakes. Thankfully, my sweet Husband kindly enjoyed and complimented me on my gooey masterpiece. A sigh of relief I did expel when I took that encouragement. Advice? Never cry over spilled flour. (=


  • "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:34
  • "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Philippians 4:6
  • "Then Jesus said to his disciples: "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear" Luke 12:22
  • "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."1 Peter 5:7
