Because I am entirely too exhausted to blog anything!
And this looked totally zany -- my mood today -- or maybe I'm just being hedonistic!

What Your Fridge Says About You

You tend to be a very hedonistic, greedy person. You have trouble saying no to what you want. You are not careful with your money. In fact, you rarely think about how much you are spending. You are a very adventurous person. You love to try new things, and you get bored very easily. You are responsible, together, and mature. You act like an adult, even when you don't feel like it.

I don't think my fridge is complimenting me. It's really saying that I'm schizoid. I'm both hedonistic and responsible. Besides being an adventurous easily bored spendthrift who can't say no.

Truthfully, I'm a very tired cranky woman who should be cleaning up this room in order to convert it to a dining room for about 25 people tomorrow after church, before driving an hour to another church service...but after the concert tonight which is after the meal for about 35 this afternoon...but that one will be served at the church, not here in my home office/dining room. Did you get all that?? Neither did I. I may not be in the right place at the right time this weekend.

Thank God for DIL who purchased all the food and stashed it in my fridge -- which is why I got labeled hedonistic. I hope she also threw away some moldy cheese and stuff...the mold is why I'm not careful with my money. But I'm sure she didn't toss the frozen vegetables in my freezer (which are also likely past the date) which was the responsible part. The survey didn't ask about past date stuff in the freezer or it would have said I belong in an asylum somewhere...Bedlam, probably. I'm not sure why my fridge says I'm adventurous!!! Silly fridge talks too much!

And speaking of schizoid...didn't I just say I didn't feel like blogging??

I got the Talking Fridge from Linda at 2nd Cup of Coffee. Go check out her blog...she's somewhere close to crazy as me....but don't tell her I said so.

TODAY

Tuesday night was a full moon. I've always believed that the phases of the moon have an effect on human emotion. I was in a blue funk most of the week...over nothing in particular, everything in general.

Surfing about various blogs tonight, it seem that an inordinate amount of people were reporting bad moods, dreary days, disappointment at events, and distressing emotions.

Last weekend was glorious. I was happy, elated even, with life, with God, with everything and everyone. By Tuesday, I was in a blue funk and have had a hard time pulling out of it. More so than usual. (I am also talking to the Doctor on Monday about the effect of Femara on my mood swings.)

"Gloriousness and wretchedness need each other. One inspires us, the other softens us." It's a Pema Chodron quote. She's Buddist, of course, but the idea isn't un-Christian although stated differently.

I'm reminded of the song: "In Everything, Give Him Thanks" (I just looked it up and to my amazement, it's written by Lanny Wolfe.) I couldn't find a sound bite to connect so the words will have to suffice:

Chorus 1
In everything give Him thanks
Give Him thanks
In everything give thanks
Give Him thanks
In the good times praise His name
In the bad times do the same
In everything give the King of kings
All the thanks

Verse 1
With all the good things
That had come His way
It's no wonder
You could hear Job say
The Lord giveth and He taketh away
I'll give Him thanks
But when the tables were all turned around
And Job's world came crashing down
His faith in God caused Job to say
I'll still give Him thanks

Verse 2
When trouble comes
And there's no one around
Satan tries to tell me
That God's let me down
Through ev'ry dark hour
The best thing I've found
Is to give God the thanks
For He has never never
Failed me yet
So why should I start now
To worry or fret
In eve'rything I won't ever forget
To give God the thanks

Misc 1 (ENDING)
King of kings all the thanks
In ev'rything give the King
Of kings all the thanks

So, today, I'm thankful that it's all in God's hands: my life, my health, my moods swings and all of the irritating trivia that attempts to derail me!

Blessings!
