Slept a Lot

Today was a day from HECK, I wanted to sleep and sleep and sleep. And I did.
David did not want to leave the house because he was keeping an eye on me.
I was fine, Just so, so tired.

So lots of decisions to make. Lots of decisions to place in Gods hands.
Why oh Why does it have to be this way?

Why???? When trials start do I sleep?  I don't know why, it is my way of coping or hiding from the thinking. Mama always said  "Sue you stick your head in the sand and let the world go by, like an ostrich".
Oh Mama if only you were here now to hear my whining. You would tell me to Grow up and Face  it like a Woman, There is more to think of than myself.

I watched a video of K-Love about a lady that lived in a Crack in the Wall.
Really she did, It was a crack between two buildings. Her older children had to go elsewhere because there was no room for them in the space she had.
When it rained, tin or cardboard was used to shield the weather, The children were sick a lot because of the elements.
And I sit here today in a NICE home, Food, Clothing and wonder what to do next.
What is wrong with me? I am so American and spoiled. We are a land of TOO MUCH.

One of my co workers, (from Guatemala)  told me, "America is spoiled, They have to have so much and they waste so much."
He was not being condescending, He was making a note of all the people that ran through our lines and ate and ate and bought and bought, with no need of the item.
I have to admit I am one of those people.

Today I fretted because my coffee pot is broken. Really I have to replace it.
Now the dilemma. Bunn offered to replace it for $71.00 plus I ship it back to them, They in turn send me a new one.
Do I want to do that?
I hunted up a box, I was set to mail it in when I realized I was spending about 100 dollars for a coffee pot that may or may not last another three years.
Three years? Heck that is nothing.
So as I fretted as to what to do, David and I both had the same idea at the same time.
Just go local and buy a new coffee pot and Heck with the out of warranty deal.
That is NOT a deal.
Man I miss my coffee in the mornings,  SPOILED!!!!
Now that is another example of over indulgence,  since some countries do not even have  clean water, Let alone coffee to start the day.

So tomorrow I will shop for butter, milk and a coffee pot.
And hopefully be wide awake and thinking.

I WANT a Kuerig. LOL...total over indulgence but I do want one.

Anyway, it all works out in the ends, always. But the getting there is the hard part.

You can't always face it like an adult, there are bound to be times of crying, sleeping or exhaustion. That's simply being human.
