Next week could be a problem.
My brother is going to be out-of-town for six days. I have made arrangements for twenty-four-hour care for my mother. We are concerned about how she will do in the evenings. I will be there until she goes to bed but if she wakes up in the middle of the night and sees someone unfamiliar there, we don’t know how she will react.
I am not spending the nights with her because I won’t sleep a wink. I’d be worried I might not hear her. Falling is a real concern. Plus, I have to stay healthy for the long-term.
So if any of you feel so inclined, I would appreciate your prayers. My brother will be gone Saturday through Thursday.
I am feeling particularly anxious about this. But I keep reminding myself of Philippians 4:6
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Hopefully, I will be right back on schedule for Monday, ’cause I want to start writing about spring projects.
Oh, by the way, the following pictures will give you a hint.
Have you ever tried to chip mastic off of a cement base? In one word:
DON’T
Do you see all those little ridges of mastic? They have to be chipped down to no more than 1/8 inch.
Fun, huh? So think about me as we finish this up today and tomorrow. Then there’s the carpet to rip up.
Fun.
God bless and have a good day.
