Blessings and Offerings

Thanks to Almost Catholic Momma for her past entries on podcasts. Last night I downloaded several and listened as I went to bed. It was not only peaceful and educational, but it is the first time that I received a full night (well, six hours) of sleep! That is unusual for me and it definitely helped with my mood today.

Blessings:

My daughter met up with the local homeschool group for the first time today. She had a wonderful time and made a really, really good friend with a girl around her age that she has a lot in common with. This really made me happy.

My husband, the sport that he is, dropped us off, made sure I was ok there around new individuals by myself and then went and killed time until he picked us up. I really appreciate the fact that he took us, as I don't drive currently, and I know that on his day of there is probably about a million other things that he would rather do than that.

Not only did I receive six solid hours of sleep last night, after returning from the park I took a four hour nap. It was bliss.

Taxes are complete with two hours two hours to spare.

Offerings:

Today was a very painful day. My body was extremely achy. I have fibromyalgia and it has been the biggest cross that I bear. Today was no exception.

An emotional night led to some hurt feelings and words not intended, but said out of anger. I offer up the hurt that these words caused me.

My feelings of unworthiness. I feel unworthy to be apart of the Catholic church. I feel unworthy of my husband, given my physical limitations. I feel unworthy as a mother, again, due to my physical limitations.
