We finally rolled out at 0930 and got on the road at ~1100, putting us in San Diego at ~ 1430. (2:30). The alarm went off at 0600, but I turned it off. LAZY Also, stubborn and/or rebellious. I'm tired of being the first one up and having to get the rest of the crew going. They were all told to set their alarm and figure out the bathing order of the morning. WHAAA! Do you hear the woe is me? The martyr just dying to be noticed? We did make it to the Air Museum. My husband is amazing. A walking encyclopedia on air planes. I was trying to read the markers only to realize he was telling me every thing that was written. He amazes me. The kids were off and on their own program. Gab had the camera and was having a hay day with it. She got some good pictures of Michael and I. I'll try to post later. They would cruise by and check in with us. Every now and then I noticed them actually enjoying and reading the exhibits. When we left the museum we went to Anthony's. Wonderful seafood. It was on the water and we watched a cruise ship leave port. Then back in the car fro the ride home. Kevin is quite the comedian. I told my kids that when they grow up they were going to be famous and well off and it would be all my fault. See they fuss at me because I'm always talking about food and therapy. I constantly read self help books and spout all my learned knowledge. As a result Gab has decided to be a psychologist and Kevin is a natural stand up comedian; his material: me and food.
Oh, I forgot to share that Gabrielle drove all the way!! She did a GREAT job. I was proud. Course Michael was in the front seat and I was in back with my head in a book.
Speaking of books, a good friend gave me an Elizabeth George Bible study on James.
So far I've been reminded to go to the feet of Jesus BEFORE calling (or blogging) a friend; even if it is to ask for prayer, to bridle my tongue, and to ask for wisdom with no doubts. After reading this I self talked to this tune:
It isn't God I doubt, I know He'll give me wisdom when I ask. I just don't trust myself to receive it and apply it. Hmmm, the verse doesn't say don't doubt God, it says do not doubt. So I have to change my thinking. I always ask for wisdom, but since I'm doubting when I ask I am a double minded woman and unstable in all my ways. How sobering.
I suppose I should go to bed. Tomorrow it is back to the rat race. Kevin is back to school, his favorite place to be. :) Gab doesn't start back until Jan 16th. I hope to do a marathon house cleaning tomorrrow, maybe she'll help. In all fairness to her there are times when I want to do it all myself. It is my way of ordering my world and feeling centered. Course that in no way helps her or trains her to be a good house wife. :(
