Thank You

I finally had some free time last night (after House of course) to sit down at my desk and work on my thank you cards. October is such a busy month! During the last weekend, I was just exhausted. I was actually in a grumpy mood because I felt I have so much to do and so little time. Yes, time management is a huge thing for me. I admit it. I really really wanted to clean my room and closet so I can start working on my cards and Halloween projects but at the end, I ran out of time.

On a side note, NEVER SHOP at Expo Furniture Store in City of Industry (By Puente Hills Mall). They were rude, lied, and basically scammed my family $127!!!!!! They even yelled at Cat!!! For those who know my sis, she is the most chill, calm, reasonable person.. so yes, she filed a complaint on BBB immediately of their poor business practice and their misleading sales department. ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Back to my thank you cards... I actually have most of them completed and will post the pictures tonight. While creating these cards, I was reflecting on my grumpy mood...How I was still angry at Richard Ton from Expo Furniture, how I was stressed that I have no time to do what I wanted to do, annoyed at my daily commute, daily nuisances, then the song hit me (Hosanna)

Heal my heart and make it clean.
Open up my eyes to the things unseen.
Show me how to love like you have loved me.
Break my heart from what breaks yours.
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause.
As I go from nothing to Eternity.

He reminded me of my daily blessings and that I need to refocus. All of these silly annoyances should not affect me. I need to see them as a lesson on how to love, how to glorify God in every situation. It helped me to remember the reason why I was making thank you cards. I had so many people to thank in the last few weeks. I was amazed and also humbled by how bless I am. My friends and family are so awesome and I thank Him everyday for them.
