feeling drained but happy

I've been having a hard time. Feeling drained. But still excited to be doing the work of the Lord. I sent out more cards today. I was very happy when a Sister-in-Christ called and told me she had received a card I sent her. And that everyone forgot her birthday and she didn't even get a phone call from anyone, but she got the card. She was happy that someone remembered. Thank You Jesus for working in me and through me. I need to get some belated cards out. Why is it that sometimes we do for others but not for the ones closest to us, like our family. I didn't forget my Sisters birthdays but I never sent them a card or anything because I keep procrastinating about the perfect card and gift. That is one of my biggest problems. I tend to want to do it perfect and keep waiting to get the right things together and the right time so as not to get interrupted and then...........its over. The days came and went and now I feel embarrassed to even give them something because what I wanted to do doesn't have the same meaning because their birthday is OVER. Ugh, am i the only one that does this horrible thing. I even made my own little yearly birthday calender for birthdays only. and that didn't help my procrastination. My daughter told me today that she was still waiting for a frame or gift that i seem to create for everyone but her... I am sorry baby girl. You will be next in line. I promise. Note. i do not make promises easily. I do not like for people to promise and then not deliver. Its a pet peeve of mine.
its 5:00 am and I am so sleepy, going off to bed. ttys

Working today while hurting

I got my laptop up and running again after it crashed. I had not been able to do any written work it was a time to reflect and not be distracted by the Internet (which does that to me) and all its useful information. I tend to try to do lots of different things at one time on my computer. It kinda wears me out. I was able to pray more also with out the computer, but my baby kept wanting attention. I thank God for my girls that help me with her. I prayed for people that God put into my mind. It is a nice thing to intercede for people. Especially when they don't even know it.
Here she is so little and beautuful. now she has become a precious, beautiful young lady.
