So here I was today continuing to work through room changes. Wanting to make my former office into a place of refuge for not only doing my lego, but for puzzling as well! 🙂 At one point I was trapped in the office and I mentioned to my sweetheart that I think I bit off more than I could chew. He LAUGHED! “Hun, he says you always do that!! And I am not going to enable you!!”. Nothing like a hubby for keeping it real eh?

Keeping It Real
Keeping it real,
it’s what he does.
Laughing with me
over the years,
23 years, it’s all the buzz!
Farts, and burps,
the sounds of life
Some get annoyed, and
others laugh, a snicker or two.
No need for strife.
Scrapes, itches, bug bites
and more, scratches and bumps,
heralding the way to
work done well, or at least
well attempted!
Watching shows on the tube,
supposed to show life.
But it seems that keeping it real
is skewed in favour of
the changes in society.
Hugs and kisses, wanted
or no, human connection
it’s what makes us go.
Even when a bad mood hits
a friendly hello works!
Bad dreams, nightmares even
“I don’t think I can people today”.
An understanding word,
a corrective challenge,
A service attended, God heals.

Final Thoughts
I am so grateful that I have a hubby who knows how to offer direction and encouragement, as well as having times when he REFUSES to help (for my own good). Nightmares would have stopped me from going to church this morning as I felt too rung-out to “people well”. And God put just the right people in my path to be a balm to my spirit.  A good thing yes?Â






You are very blessed.
P.S. I like puzzling too.
“God put just the right people in my path to be a balm to my spirit.” Amen! That’s what our kind Father does!
