Sometimes My Life Is Overwhelming

And let’s be honest, it’s because there’s so much bounty.

…Not from trials….

Right now it’s from:

too many green beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggs and raspberries,

clothing {read laundry}

too much house

too many toys

too many hobbies

too much service

etc.

You get the idea?

And I grumble under my breath as I bottle the 70th pint of green beans and a skirt sits cut out but not finished on my sewing machine.

{I actually counted how many pints because I’m like that.}

And my friends think of sarcastic sayings like: #soblessed!

But then I feel like a jerk because I come home from serving at our church’s pear orchard for three hours grumbling about the mess in the house…

And Bryce and the kids have made a fun, little video while I was gone.

And because I’m a dork, I couldn’t figure out how to get the darn thing loaded, but here it is in pictures:

And, of course, it made me bawl like a selfish baby.

{I’m planning on posting again this week and sharing who is getting some of my free hand-me-downs….get excited.}
