Somehow, I remembered to register for the Home Depot kids event today. I was supposed to do it first thing at midnight. I was even awake then. It has been on my calendar for yesterday to remind me to do it at midnight last night. But I totally forgot. Then, today, I somehow remembered and I got registered. Turns out, they don’t fill up in an instant like I had anticipated. So, that’s a positive, I suppose. I registered at two different stores early this afternoon. (The first one turned out not to be the right one – it was automatically assigned when I opened the website, and we have at least three stores that are closer than that one, if not more. So, I registered at one I had actually wanted to use.) Now, I just have to remember to go get the actual kit in over a month when the time comes. Fingers crossed, because it’s a cool one! A crop duster!
Anyway, I ended up sucked into the phone again today, doing various seemingly important things. Yes, they mattered. But I hate spending time using my phone when I’m hands-on with my child. And my child has been very needy the past week-ish, and there’s a lot of hands-on time right now. So, it was doubly frustrating to have to deal with any extra stuff on the phone today because of that (both the hassle of it and the decrease in attention it gives my child when we’re together).
God, help me to choose less time spent on my phone each day. I have felt the guidance at nighttime – thank you. Please, continue it in the daytime, too. Please, keep our family safe and well and whole and together, especially my husband and our baby. Guide us kindly and clearly forward. Show us exactly what to do these next 24 and 72 hours for our financial future. Help us to solidify the next step in the process for us to reach financial stability and reliability, and a beautiful and fulfilling career for us both. In your name, we pray. Amen.
