It’s Tuesday. My daughter has to be at Volleyball camp at 8:30am and my husband has a dental appointment at 9am. My husband hates traffic so I always have to accompany him when he goes to the dentist so he doesn’t have to drive and so we can use the carpool lane. This means that I get to sit in the car for an hour (our son will be with me too) and read my Bible. Today though, I think I will pop over to the vision clinic and drop a note off for my friend! I am excited to be able to check in with her again this week!
You know, I used to really dislike the fact that my husband can’t go to any of his appointments without me. But I do understand that he gets really stressed out in traffic and so I don’t mind ad much anymore. I DO find it a little interesting though that he is always complaining about the extra work he has had to take on because of my decreasing abilities and he refers to himself as my caregiver but I do all the driving - to church, on errands, to appointments, etc. I also make all the phone calls he needs to make - I make most of his doctor appointments, calls about car parts, questions about bills or just about anything - he especially hates calling people when there is a problem. So I do it for him. At least I can still do some things for him that are helpful even if he doesn’t realize he’s being helped.😉. I also pack a cooler full of food for him the night before he leaves on a trip and I get up early to put an ice pack in it and set it out by his wallet so he remembers to take it with him - I always put an encouraging note - often with a verse - in his cooler too. My sister recently found these great Snoopy notes that I have been using lately because Blair loves Snoopy.🙂
Well, I need to get the kids up and moving. Praying the Lord carries us through another busy day!
