"LORD, this humble house we'd keep
SWEET with play and calm with sleep.
HELP us so that we may give
BEAUTY to the lives we live.
LET Thy bounty and Thy grace
SHINE upon our dwelling place."
by Edgar Albert Guest

A while back, I came across some of Mr. Guest poetry and liked it. Whenever researching about a person, I sometimes go down archive lane as a bewildered child wondering what the person was truly like. They are dead n' gone and I cannot at this time visit with them in person or even observe them from a distance. Hearing their voice or seeing how they carry themselves isn't possible. Reading their writings will have to do.
This becomes the observation from a far.
As my Husband is still recovering from thyroid surgery two weeks ago, we traveled to Oklahoma for a Grandson's Birthday Party. Though it was wonderful to see Family, the traveling was harder on him than expected. Mark it up to experience and do things differently. I am beyond tired and am snappy.
Snappy. Snappy is not the same thing as being snazzy. (ha)
If being snappy were the same as snazzy, I'd be in good company.
Truthfully, we need rest. Wearing out very easily, I am in need of rest.

As we prepare for his second thyroid surgery, we will be resting. End of story. The cleaning of the rooms has to continue and when He has had his second surgery, we will rest some more. You know, some people are better at this thing called dealing with Life. Some folks are better at saying no than I. You can go, go, go until you physically drop.
In the Psalms it says, "THE LORD MAKES ME TO LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES."
Do you suppose, He ever allows you to run out of gusto so you have to
stop,
drop
and rest?
YOU ARE GOING TO REST NOW. NOW.
Yep,
