Okay, so I am supposed to 'gripe' about something today . . .(according to my previously laid out blogging plan, which I reserve the right to change at any given moment BTW)
I could blog about the slow driver driving slow just to make me mad this morning . . . or the chanting softball team we played last night. . . or about the way my husband talked to me earlier, but honestly, I can't do anything about those things! Seriously, who would want to read about them anyway? My April 28th resolution is to only gripe about things I can change!! (Baby steps, baby steps) . . .
SO, with the New Resolution in place, the only thing I have to gripe about today is (DRUM ROLL PLEASE) . . . the state of my living room and master bedroom . . .ridiculous really. I am a stay at home mom, and there is NO reason that my house shouldn't be top notch at any given moment, right??!!?? Okay, I don't believe that either (and if you do, we probably wouldn't get along really well LOL). I do believe though, that I have let my priorities get a LITTLE out of whack . . . (okay, fine, a lot, but let's just keep that to ourselves!) I have such good intentions, but everything really is futile if you aren't doing it for the right reasons, or with the right attitude.
Proverbs 31 Woman. . .BLAH, BLAH, BLAH . . . Someday, but right now I am okay being just a Proverbs 31 VERSE 10 WOMAN: "A wife of noble character who can find?" . . .lets just start there and look for her . . .(remember, baby steps) . . .I am going to start looking for her under the couch (this might take awhile, be patient with me) I will update this post with before and after pictures . . .mostly just to embarrass myself and then to get the expected praise at how great I did from you guys later!
Don't disappoint . . . ;-)

ha ha!! I like your approach to Proverbs 31! perhaps I should do it from that angle and not get so caught up in the rest of the chapter all at once and feel like a collisional failure.
and we get along fine... and my house is clean! lol no, it's just a little something I can control in my crazy life. Gotta run and go clean! ;)
