If you put blessings and aggravations into one word……….you would get blessavations. That is what I think of when family comes home from out of state. I do look forward to seeing my neices (one 18 years and one 20 months) but I hate the hassle of working our working/church schedule around what they want to do when they want to do it, altering my schedule to accomodate them only to feel very unappreciated. Whine, whine…..I know. I am blessed that I have family but this old body is used to my bedtime, and my couch, and my quiet home. My brother and I are opposite in so many ways, but enough alike in that we both want the other one to change their schedule to accomodate the other. Whine,whine. But I think it is in I or II Timothy where we are to practice our religion by caring for our family, repaying parents and grandparents, for that is pleasing to God. And I of course want to please God. Now I just gotta work on the mind thing.
Have a great day!! (Oh yeah – blessing – I am off work today) (blessavation – more family stuff to do)
I understand exactly where you’re coming from!!! I will be praying for you!
LOVE this new word! More blessings are blassavations!
Yep, I have a very hard time with change, especially when I come home and just want to lay on the couch and rest! Praying for you!
Truly love the word blessavations—-seems appropriate with College Boy moving back home today. Ummm, I had begun to get a little used to it, even though I fell into a pile last fall. Glad your family got to come and glad they got to go. Rest up dear sister, another week awaits soon.
Love ya
