Thought for the Day


"Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us - even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will. We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever. Although we might settle for less, Heavenly Father won't, for He sees us as the glorious beings we are capable of becoming."

- Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin

Down in the Dumps

For some odd reason, I'm down in the dumps today. I have NO motivation and I feel really weepy. On the verge of tears all day. I decided to be kind to me today. I've been taking it easy and doing things that I want to do today. I'm still trying to be productive.
This morning I got Sunday's coupons collated and stapled. I went through a few of the ads. I tied up our vines to the pergola so that they wrap around the posts. I clipped some bushes in the front yard and watered the grass (old fashioned style - sprinkler system is still down). I also worked on the kids' blocks. We have some old pieces of wood that I'm sanding down to make blocks for them to play with outside.
So, I've still been busy.
I should be taking a shower and getting ready to pick up the kids from school right now, BUT.....

Tonight is a busy night for us. Eli has Scouts, Elizabeth has a big Achievments Day activity, and I have YW. I sure hope I find the motivation to get things done that I need to for these things! :)

ugh! I totally know what you're talking about! Take 20 minutes to read something inspirational - obviously you need some tears to fall --- just get it out - so you can go back to normal!

Hope it doesn't last too long!
