The last couple of weeks have felt totally crazy. Between packing up my parents and moving all their stuff to a storage unit in 2 1/2 days, Arika's birthday, Easter, and trying to get ready for Indonesia. I feel like a hamster on a wheel. I finish my day and I feel like I've gotten NOTHING done. Is that possible? My mind goes in all different directions, (course that's normal for me, huh?)
As I sit here writing this, I have 3 loads of laundry that need to be folded, about 3 more that need to be washed and folded, The bathrooms are screaming to be cleaned, (I keep trying to block them out.) I have a card table full of pictures and tub more full to go through. (to organize) Those are just the ones that need to be done now. How is there possibly enough time in my day?
Am I the only one out there that feels like this? I know I should just one thing at a time, and not get overwhelmed, but, I'm getting really frustrated!! I wrote this partly to let you know why you haven't heard the rest of the bear story, and because I need encouragement, But yet as I sit here thinking about it. I've been relying on myself, not God to give me strength. Philippians 4 :13 I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me. I am nothing without Him.

Hang in there! You will make it! I have been laying flat on my back for 2 days cuz I threw my back out on Monday night. I know all about the pressure of what is not getting done. Take some time to be still and Know that He is God. I am not very good at this but when I do the things that are most important on my list become more clear.
Praying you will find some little blessings in your day!
Miss ya, Joy! I'll be praying for you to be able to have more time and energy to have days where you really feel like you've accomplished a lot. :)
I feel this way all the time. Except I'm not currently packing to go anywhere. I just need a supper mom pill that clears my brain and gets things done for me. Anyways I wish I was there to help in some way. Of course your probally already done.
