Draining days

It seems the days following Dougs return from being gone are always so challenging for me. i set up high expectations of myself, and him and then I feel like I fail at so many of them and it leaves me sad. Thank God I have the word to lift me up and remind me that all of my wordly expectations do not have to be met to giv eme complete happiness... God has given me all I will ever need and I hold strong to that.
Its hard to go along and be "ok" when you are fighting the enemy on the inside. Im so glad doug and i are doing the 2M at Guts this eyar together. I know it will help me to focus and I pray it willa lso help him to focus as well.
Mmm cappucino is good this morning. Love it when I make it myself and its strong but soothing to me. Love my coffee lately thats for sure. Ha.
I cant remember if I mentioned or not yet in my blog, but we had a reat time on our date the other night. Paula is a true blessing of a friend for dealing with my three kidgits as well as hers while we had some adult time alone. Melting Pot made our tummies happy *grin*.
It's been SO hot here the last couple of days. Doug went back to work on his typical Monday-ish Tuesdays (he works 4 10 hour days). I miss him already. Lol... silly huh?
Anyway Im going to get off of here and try to grabs omething healthy for breakfast before Vivi wakes for the day. Once she gets out of bed the fun begins! Muwah!
