Why Perfection
I am having a crazy day, feeling like my emotional hormones are on overdrive, and I am wondering why?? Then I think I am trying to be this perfect person, and putting pressure on myself, then maybe that is why I am feeling crazy. I went out to mom's Bible study this morning, and had to bring snack. The snack I made last night didn't turn out very well, so instead of just bringing the one loaf that did turn out, (that would not look good for me to bring a less then presentable snack), I decide to make cookies. So then I am rushed, and almost hyperventilating when I sit down. My kids are crying upstairs, because I was rushed!! AHHHHHHH!! Pressure! Pressure to not look frazzled when I get there. Pressure to say I am doing well, with a genuine smile on my face. Pressure to have my kids looking washed and pressed when I get to Bible study. All this pressure that who puts on me?? ME!! What if I would have brought only one loaf? It would have been fine, Christie brought lots, I brought home over half my snack. Maybe if I would tone down MY expectations of MYSELF, and my family, things would be more settled at home, I would feel more settled and things would run more smoothly. Maybe?? Gotta think more on this.........
