Blessing Through the Mess

Today is the second time in two weeks that either my 
husband's car or mine has ended up in the shop. We carpooled 
to work three days last week due to a broken car part 
in my car and today upon leaving the gym Brad's car battery
was dead. So, instead of date night we are spending tonight 
with him at the car shop hopefully getting his car battery replaced
and me at home with the working car in case the battery job
has to roll over into Monday. 


This is Brad post workout looking for the broken part under my car...on public 
pavement...For those of you who don't know him. He is a germophobe and I thought
i'd never ever see him doing this!

Bummer for sure! Oh well I guess it helps me practice my 
bless through the mess skills. I finally finished Choose Joy by Kay
Warren who says to fill our minds with good things not by living in
denial when "life" happens, but by finding the joy in the messes
of the everyday and looking for blessings as we go.
