Training in progress

Running around Box Hill during my lunch break clad with bags of groceries, ticking off my shopping list in my head while waiting in line to order my takeaway lunch is hard work. I was surrounded by grandparents, housewives and dedicated mothers shopping for the family meals to come during the week. I cannot imagine if I were a working mother. These are moments that I admire the parents around the world. I honour all of you!

Whether we love it not, chores pile up. Regretting not paying attention to them in my free time during the weekend, I had to motivate myself to be diligent after work today. What a timely note from a blog I read earlier today.

"If you can't get out of it, get into it, "says the author. A great point she makes is to have a positive attitude since someone's gotta get the job done anyway. So I did. I sang loudly around the house,  imagining my new and improved clean home and day dreamed while working those chores away.

What makes me happy too is that I have a housemate moving in soon. I am grateful and excited to have a great friend to share my house and make it more like a home. It has been a prayer for quite some time now and I feel blessed. It is always nice to have someone around the house to share your stories of the day, share a meal or even share the housework :) Don't worry future homie! I will make sure to take note of point 7 from the earlier blog **grin** I'm training myself to be a great housemate!

Well, whatever your week may look like, whether full of chores, meals to cook or heading back into a busy week at work, don't forget to think positive! Remember to breathe and don't stress. We have a God that cares. He is one that cares for the littlest and biggest matters in my life. So, remember to share them with Him! Oh how He loves us!
