Staying in Bed Today

I am staying in bed today. I am exhausted from spring cleaning and having company yesterday. I always feel worried that I say the wrong thing, say too much, not respond to comments appropriately. My mind is my greatest enemy at times. We strive for perfection but can never achieve. How much of me is still alive, and how much more I must crucify my flesh: this I am reminded of daily. My hubby is exhausted also, and is not feeling well, walking with a cane today. Our fridge is full of leftovers, how blessed we are to have food, I'm thinking, when so much of the world is starving.

Deborah's cat is content too. I shunned Moonshine off my clean sheets very gently and she did not like it. Growled, and finally found a spot in a velvet orange chair. These clawed creatures are not very tame at times, and this one has a temper but we love her because Deborah loved her. She keeps wanting to escape, she has had a taste of freedom by my married daughter outside of their porch of their house which is fairly confined. Now she occasionally cries to go out, but we love her too much to have her escape into the elements. Her tatoo in her ears were botched up, so she would not be easy to find. It is because of her, we have carpets on our hardwood floors. Her mother, out outdoor cat Tiger is darling. Now she could sleep outside except for the raccoon that come as soon as the sun sets. So nightly, we put her inside the mini laundry room under the staircase. How much longer will we have the energy to maintain our home and pets?? I don't know. Only the Lord knows.
