One.of.those.days.

Today is just one.of.those.days.  I have felt like doing nothing but sitting here and looking through my Reader and Twitter.  I have so much to do though.  I'm just blah.  I honestly would not get dressed today, but I have to take C girl to ballet later and I feel like I would be embarrassed going how I look right now. 


We had a pretty good, low-key weekend.  Friday night, we went out for pizza.  Saturday morning, we went to Target for a Dr. Seuss event and to Lowe's for the kid's clinic.  Saturday night we went to the home of our Sunday School teachers for a big breakfast dinner.  It was nice getting to hang out with them and a few other people.  Sunday we went to church, came home and had roast beef and then just hung out the rest of the day.  I ended up not feeling great Sunday night, but I sucked it up enough to play Candyland with the kiddos before bed.


Since I'm being honest, I'm missing family and friends too.  It's very hard being away from them a lot and not being able to see them often.  I wish I could go to my nephew's ball games and see my other 2 baby nephews all the time.  


This song has been on my mind today-
We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things

'Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights 
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
And we cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe

'Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights 
Are what it takes to know You’re near
And what if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know that pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
It's not our home

'Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy
And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise
