Oh you make me laugh! Especially since I’ve done all of those same things you mentioned. I do have to tell you that I love my pooches but my first thought with the dog food shortage would have been to split the can and load them up on dog biscuits until morning. Not that I’ve ever done that (OK, I have, but it was only for a few hours! I’ve let my kids load up on junk food for a special treat, it’s basically the same thing, right?) I’ve also done the “I can’t believe I’m going out of the house in this outfit” trip and I’ve learned the beauty of baseball caps and sweatshirts. It didn’t help much but it was something.

And your guilt in making that wish, I swear you must have been in my head when I’ve contemplated one too! It’s just a wish but it starts as a possible thought for myself and then it turns into a wish for my kids, or a sick friend, my elderly grandmothers, help with our finances but not to be greedy only enough to pay the bills, etc. It snowballs in my brain. It’s the same thing with a prayer. It may be a simple please help me to feel better today and it turns into but thank you for the good heath I do have, please keep my kids healthy, keep them safe while they are driving, and keep my husband safe, my brothers, their wives, their children, my parents…my brain hurts because I don’t want to leave anyone out and I don’t want to be greedy. It’s like OCD of the prayer world. So you’re not alone! Although you’re not as crazy as I just made myself sound either. Eek!

Oh, this one cracked me up. Like, I-almost-spit-coffee-all-over-my-computer-screen cracked up. Thanks for sharing a moment that we've all had some variation of...and I hope you get your wish, whatever it was. Rebecca @ The Book Lady's Blog’s last blog post..Oops! I missed one.

Sheri, you’ve given me my first good laugh of the day. Seriously though, I think a lot of us women have a difficult time wanting things for ourselves…we convict ourselves guilty if we don’t feel grateful every second. Just remember God wants to bless you. Don’t you hate it when your family and friends won’t let you bless them? I believe that’s how God feels about us.bye!

Sheri, you had me cracking up!! I hate it when I need something from the store and I’m already in comfy pjs for the night. The little girl inside of me still wishes on stars too. =)
