You're just minding your own business and then BAM! Life happens!

This weekend was supposed to be PERFECT! I had it planned for weeks that my daughter (Bethany) and I (and Jonathan) would spend the entire weekend together up at the Ranch retreat home. We were going to scrapbook and I was really looking forward to it...but that was dependent on Vaughn's plans and Joseph's plans and God's plans, and it did not come to pass...

THEN, I was going to go to the Retreat home first thing this morning and enjoy the day because Bethany and Jonathan were going to spend the day with me and then tomorrow I was going to go down there and spend at least the morning with them at a ladies craft time at their church; but that was dependent on Joseph's plans and Luke's plans and God's plans, and it did not come to pass...

THEN some friends offered to keep the boys for us as a birthday present for me, so that I could drive Vaughn down to Bethany's and Joseph's house on Thursday as he was taking an early morning flight to Phoenix on Friday...but that was dependent on our boys not getting sick st school, and God's plans and it did not come to pass...

SO, I was to be "off" for the weekend starting at 7:00 this morning until Sunday evening at 6 pm, BUT that was dependent on whether the boy who got sick yesterday did not get sick during the night, and God's plans and it did not come to pass....

I am sitting here waiting to hear whether we have a doctor's appointment for our sick boy. I probably ought to see the Doctor myself, because I fell yesterday morning off of a stepstool while hanging border in our game room. It hurts pretty bad and is quite swollen...So, now I don't have any plans.

As the late John Lennon wrote: "Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans..."

I think I need a nap!
