Sad Sunday
Maybe it was the little sleep I received or maybe it was leftover blues from Friday (see that post for why) becuase I was in such a mood today. I woke up and cuddled with Joe and then decided to go to church so I took a quick shower and made my way over there. I drove into the parking lot and was happy to see many cars there and walked in with my pop cans they use to make money for the church. I saw a friend of mine and sat down and the service began and yet again irony hit home with me. As I have told you many times that my work has not been going well and so I have had issues with my boss for a while now. Tomorrow I was going to be talking with him and since he wrote me an email on Friday night telling me how my sales for the month were so bad that he wanted to know what I was going to do to turn it around. I thought the world was coming down on this call and was getting stressed out. So I thought being in church would be good for me and seeing some friends etc would help too.
What happens is the pastor begins to talk about a passage where there are issues with a boss and the employee and I almost laughed when she began talking. This has not been the first time she has done this and it is like she has been watching my life like in the movie that Jim Carrey was in and I was shocked when she continued on and on about this. I could relate in so many ways and it made me realize that I have some issues I need to work on.
Next came the time where people can say out loud prayers for people they care about and the pastor with her down said something that truly hit me once again as she talked about a lady at church who I had an instant connection with was in a car accident on Thursday. She was at a stop sign and this old man slammed into the back of her truck and she is so lucky to be alive - she is very sore and she is worried that her truck will be totaled. I was in shock since I had no clue this had happened and many of us turned and looked at her and she was still freaked out by all this (I know I would be too) and so after the services I went to her and we talked. She told me what had happened and I told her how glad I was she was ok and she hugged me and thanked me. She is one amazing woman and I can’t tell you how much she has done fo the people at this church and I am so glad she is in my life.
Afterwards, I went back home and began to do some work I felt I had to do and Joe helped me with some stuff and seeing how I was busy he decided to go home and get some stuff done there. I was so consumed on doing this I ended up not doing my movie night which is very rare for me to do - even with family functions I leave in time for this event. I guess I was not in a mood to host the event and didn’t want to deal with all of the people at that moment. I did get alot done and I was happy for that.
