March 23 – “Tomorrow”

We determined today that as our goal for this morning we would finish sheetrocking the two closets in the master bedroom.  After the spatial relations fiasco Saturday, I was going to cover up that one hole no matter what.  All we had to do was run by Home Depot and pick up the last piece of our bathroom vanity order that we've been trying to pick up since Friday.   Home Depot didn't go quite as smoothly as we anticipated.  They assured us the piece was in.  In fact, the lady we talked to said she had personally seen it Saturday.  That would be the same Saturday that we picked up part of our order and they couldn't find the rest of it.  Needless to say, we didn't expect too much.  And we weren't disappointed.  We waited over an hour while they looked for it.  Finally they processed a ten percent discount for us, and assured us they would find it and give us a call.    By the time we left there it was definitely time for lunch.  But since we were already right by McCoy's we decided to go there and pick up a light fixture for the house.  Again, not the best idea we have had lately.  We found the fixture right away and got in line to pay for it.  So far so good.  A sales guy came up to us and offered to take us next at his register.  Could we be so lucky?  He rang up the sale on our credit card and asked me to sign it.  And it was the wrong price.  He and Chris went to check it out.  Sure enough, we had been overcharged.  He rang up the refund.  And accidentally charged us six more dollars.  He finally got some help and I think we got it straight.  And we finally got to go for some food.   We made it to the house and got started on that spatial relations wall.  I discovered that the best way to defeat the spatial relations problem was to break it down into smaller pieces.  It's a lot easier to trim and force-fit three smaller pieces than one large piece.  We finished that closet.  Before we could start on the other one, the AC guys came to do some more stuff.  And the contractor came, too.  He was meeting the guys who will begin putting in our windows and back door … tomorrow.  Now that's good news.  He also said that his team of sheetrockers could finish up what was left and get going on the taping and bedding and texturing starting tomorrow as well.  Sounds like tomorrow will be a busy day.   Matthew 6:33-34 says, "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.  Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."   Father, help me keep it simple.  You take care of tomorrow.  Amen.
