Today was day 2 of packing. Tomorrow is loading day. Our house will be vacant and we'll be down to one car. Yesterday the realization of moving began to hit me, and I've been a little emotional.
When something huge is going on all it takes for me to get emotional or upset is for something little to go wrong. On Monday my computer died, and the Apple store said it would cost $1300 to fix the problems. I did not handle that well. I definitely had a couple 'freak-out' moments. Today it was really little. The movers packed my pumpkin muffins I made this week for breakfast. First of all I wanted to eat them this morning. Second of all, when we unpack them in December, there's going to be a whole lot of stink and mold. It shouldn't have made me sad, but it did.
When I listen to my mind and emotions, I make bad choices. I cry and sometimes act like it's the end of the world, which is definitely not the case. When I listen to the spirit in me, I make good choices. I take my burdens to the cross, pray, and am grateful for what I've been given. "be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." Romans 12:12
