It is amazing how a movie or a song will put you in your place. It is so very easy to complain, and let those complaints make you unhappy. But you know what? Always having something to do is better than having nothing to do. It's better than not being able to do those things because of a disability, or something like that too. We take a lot of things for granted. Stopping, taking your daughter to a movie and forgetting "duties around the house," is something more important. Laundry, etc... that can wait. But the lessons we learn from these experience are pricess and shouldn't be put on hold. I'm glad you got some quality time just "chicks." :) <strong>Me too. It is too easy to put off what really matters just as it is too easy to complain. :</strong>) Oh my goodness, I know exactly how you feel.

Me too. It is too easy to put off what really matters just as it is too easy to complain. :)

It's an old book but still relevant. And in one chapter it talks about "putting things with feelings first". It's funny when I complain about "having so much to do" (always after the fact or during) my daughter always says "Mom all you have to do is ask for help) ;)Anyway...your post resounded with what I have experienced!!! I also saw that movie and it is absolutely awesome!!! <strong>Asking for help is so basic and yet so necessary.

Asking for help is so basic and yet so necessary. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

How easy it is for me to complain about the things I don't have when there are so many in this world that don't have their basic needs met each day. I always feel terrible when I catch myself doing it, but I have yet to get rid of the habit altogether. Thanks for the reminder again that I'm so blessed with ALL that I have. <strong>You're welcome and thanks for the comment. It is just too easy isn't it? :)</strong> Holly,
