Lift It Up

So I was talking on the phone with my dad today. He has some stuff that he's going through, just like I have some stuff I'm going through, or some stuff you might be going through. That's life right? Nothing is perfect, until we get to heaven. But one thing that my dad and I reminded each other of, is to try not to worry about things that are not within our control. As my dad likes to say, "If it's within my control, I'll do my best. If it's not within my control, I'll lift it up to God." I think that is something I could stand to be reminded of... like, everyday! How freeing is that? Today "Billy" the cabinet person came and installed our bathroom cabinets. I think I'm going to love that middle cabinet on the wall! The lowest cubby hole on the bottom has an electric outlet, so that we can leave our electric toothbrushes plugged in there, or hairdryer, or curling iron (well, that one's mine, not Todd's, LOL). The other shelves will be very useful for extra towels, medication, lotions, soaps, shampoos, cosmetics, and what not. The cabinets aren't stained yet, just installed. And we won't get our countertops for another couple of weeks. Tonight we had pizza and watched the Cleveland Cavaliers sweep the Atlanta Hawks in four games and move on to the NBA Eastern Conference Finals. Yaaaaay! We also went over to our next door neighbor Fred and Annie's house. They gave us homemade mulberry pie, and homemade Italian Wedding Soup! Annie's Italian Wedding Soup is the best. I'm so excited that I can have it for lunch tomorrow, LOL. I'm tired of buying lunch. I miss having our own home-cooked leftovers for lunch.
