Arghhhh--stop complaining and be grateful!!!

So what do you do when you find yourself crying for no reason at all? That has been my day. And a lot of the week. Poor David has received the brunt of my horrible mood. He has been sick all week long too and I pray I don't get his cold. There is so much to do and I can hardly pull myself together before noon to get in the shower! It's hard to do nothing all day, but it's about all I do. I don't understand how people actually live (and like) that kind of lifestyle. I am more of a DO-er than a BE-er, so ending my day without accomplishing one thing is depressing and discouraging. I feel like so much weight is on Tim these days yet he never complains -- probably because I complain enough for both of us!! Lord, please help me NOT to complain and to be content EVERY day and in everything!

I have chemo #4 coming up this Friday. I am so hoping it is better than chemo #3 which had me sleeping all day while receiving treatment and then going home and sleeping until Small Group started arriving. I hope I will be able to take a little nap this time, wake up and feel totally refreshed while I catch up on reading or computer stuff during treatment. This Friday I am counting on feeling good since we are hosting a Christian Seder Supper and expecting about 20 people!! God will work out the details of where everyone is going to sit! Plus, my mom is arriving Friday night!!!

Thanks in advance for your prayers for Friday -- successful treatment, preparing food, the Seder table, and house for Seder Meal and guests.

Happy Easter - praying we all remember why Jesus died on the cross for each of us and how God raised him from the dead after 3 days! Thank you God for sending us the ultimate, sacrificial lamb and that you no longer require animal sacrifices to seek your forgiveness and friendship.
