Why do we all settle for mediocre?? Why do we allow things to be set in stone and unchanging??
Why do many of us never strive for something because someone tells us we can't possible reach our goals?? It seems I am thinking about this a lot lately. I know I am at a point in life where I am considered to be too dreamy and impractical; where it seems we think we can do anything. However, I must ask, why do we let life's obstacles interfere with our belief that we can do anything, and for those of us smart enough to realize, that we can do anything with God on our side? Why do we allow ourselves to be pushed down, stomped on, and forget all we know in Him?

I am finding myself in a constant state of feeling like all I do is dream. I am sick of dreaming and I am ready for things to happen. However, I must take my dreaming and planning and throw them out the window. I need to let God take control, which I admit, for someone as OCD and controlling as I am, is very very difficult.

Today is going to be a very busy day, but first I will say how thankful I am for yesterday and all it entails. I was blessed enough yesterday to receive an Oovoo video call from a great guy friend, Tony, who is stationed in Iraq right now. I think I took advantage of seeing him so much before he left, and I miss him sooo much right now. It was sooo nice to see his smiling face and hear him too! It was MUCH better than a FB chat session like we normally have. I love him like a big brother, and I cannot wait till he is home and back partyin and hangin out with us all! Please keep him in your prayers, for things are quite difficult at the moment.

So....back to today. It is going to be one heck of a day, and tomorrow even more so. Today I am nannying of course, but I am also going to be making some packing lists, going to the bank, church, fine arts meeting, and tryin to do something special for the kiddos on their last day of summer with me. I can't believe its over already! This summer is almost over, yet it feels like it just began. Tomorrow I have rehearsal, packing, planning, errands, going to the gym, and my second interview for this new nanny position. Let us pray I get the job tomorrow! I need to start it as soon as possible.

Tomorrow night I also plan to begin my 30 day habit training to beginning a normal sleep pattern that works for me consistently. If I get this new job, it will be a 730-3, normal, everyday, and consistent job and I need to be prepared. I need to be prepared to be working on online classes and taking care of an 18month old little boy, along with going to other evening classes after work. I will have a crazy day nearly everyday of my life, as I may also continue keeping the kids I currently nanny for a few days a week after school, if it works out. I really hope that is possible.

I am trusting God will have His way in my life with Army Boy, moving out, working, and school. I am trusting Him with my entire life.

Have a blessed day!
