Don't THINK about it just DO IT!

Well folks, we are entering my busiest time of year. Football starts next week! What does that matter? I'll tell you, it means that My husband is working VERY hard and I have to pick up the burden of the house that he manages when Football season is not in.

This time comes every year whether I prepare for it or not, Football season comes to pass. I have learned over the years to prepare mentally and physically for this, but the fact is that when you are in it, you just have to do it and not think about it.

Why am I telling you this? Well, because many people don't understand how we handle it in our house, but the fact is that it is who and how we are so it works for us. I have do a lot on my own to keep the house up and it can seem overwhelming and in fact sometimes is. However, as you know I am here to help and this is helping Rob do a job that he loves and I am totally willing and want to do that for him.

Let me walk you through how it works...Rob's only house chore during football season is to Vacuum mostly because I hate this job and he is willing. I do everything else, Dog, Kid, House, Work, & Socializing. Seems like a short list written out like that, but that explodes in a hurry. My friends think I am crazy, but what can you do.

I just trust that the Lord gives me the strength to do anything I set my mind to and am willing to accept that I am able to handle anything with him. More importantly I don't ask myself "How am I going to do that?" I just determine what it is that I have to do and then set about doing it.

If you spend time making even the smallest step forward over and over again will cover a tremendous amount of ground. BUT if you stop moving you get stuck and find that it's even harder to get moving again. Dory in the movie Finding Nemo states it best "Just keep swimming"

You can probably accomplish 2 or 3 times as much stuff if you spend less time brooding about how hard or complicated things are and more time just looking your life in the eye and start moving through it piece by piece it will come together. Put a little faith in the fact that you are never going to get more than you can handle. HE has faith in you and with that in mind it seems that you should too!

I know easier said than done, but if you work at it you can make your inside voice quiet down and let the you that is in there waiting to bust out, come into being as it was intended.

A wise woman once told me that if you say you can't you won't! Those are words to live by. Instead just say to yourself that you can do it! and then DO IT!
