life has been kinda crazy for me. I'm sure it has been for alot of people. The uncertainty of the economy as well as the pending Election hasn't helped either. I just feel like I don't know if I'm doing all that I'm suppose to. I feel gray inside...
With that being said, I keep going back to a couple of posts on two blogs that I frequent. They both keep mentally nudging me to take action...so I am going to listen to my inner voice and take action. Here goes....
~~~
First off, I am participating in One Day To Give that is being hosted by We are THAT Family. There are so many times that I have that "little voice" telling me to do something...Call a friend...Offer to fix dinner for my parents...Invite my husband out for a Date Night...Or offer my lunch to a homeless woman. I have always tried to listen to what that "urging" tells me and so far, I have never been disappointed.
Secondly, I am also participating in The Challenge at Toddler Planet. As many of you know, my Aunt Mary Ann was recently diagnosed with Bone Cancer in her spine. She has been going to radiation Monday thru Friday for the past few weeks. Some of you may also remember that my mother-in-law died almost 10 years ago after a very long and courageous fight with Breast Cancer. I remember how much it meant to Ruby when someone called her just to chat and take her mind off of everything...and I have been trying to do the same thing for my Aunt.
Anyone care to join me? What's that worse that can happen? Who knows, you might even feel better afterwards.

Whewee, sister! I'm with you on feelin' gray! Today has been a gray day here in my house too. Just blah! Hubby offered to cook dinner tomorrow (as today is the last day I'll be in my 20's), and so far I've done all the work for tomorrow's dinner! Grrrrrrrr! It started last night with, "Can you set the steaks out to thaw tomorrow so I can marinate them when I get home?" Then became, "Can you marinate the steaks tomorrow?" when he got home, and then "What do you want to go with your steak?" Well, considering HE didn't think of going to the grocery, I'LL be fixing corn and something else to go with the dinner "he's" fixing. Booooo on the planning, hubby! I think that's why I'm gray. ;) Hope your tomorrow is as hot pink as they come!
I would really like to participate in the "One Day to Give" too! Working in social services I feel I give all the time. My patience, my understanding, my money (I work for pennies!), but sometimes I feel like I take this for granted because it is my job. I sometimes need a little nudge to do more, this sounds just like what I need.
I'm in!
I know the feeling. Things are weird right now. I have kind of decided to just focus on the good right now. No scary movies, just comedies, no news for a little while. It helps to back up and see all the good and not be so bombarded. I'll check out the challenges!
I'd like to try doing it daily. Thanks!
I saw you commented on my "Overwelmed" post. Sorry you've been feeling that way as well. All I can say is my thoughts are with you, and hugs to you my bloggy pal! :-)
