Hello Sunday
It’s almost 4:00 AM and my mom is finally aware of the date and time (still kind of off about the time of day even though it’s dark outside). She knows that certain bills have to be paid by a certain date. I told her we would worry about those things on Monday. That I would handle it all.
Yeah.. it’s almost 4:00 AM and now I’m trying not to worry about everything I have to do on Monday, or tomorrow. Shoot.. I barely remembered to pay my own bills that weren’t automatically drafted. Life. Gotta love it.
Right now, she’s falling back to sleep. I believe I’ll do the same. Tomorrow, I’ll handle whatever needs to be done then. However, today.. right now.. I’m going to stay present, get some sleep and deal with whatever Sunday brings.
Staying present.
One task and day at a time.
Going back to sleep.
Y’all have a blessed day.

What a difference a day makes. Yesterday and last night, things were really rough. My mom was in so much pain and nothing helped. Around 4:00 AM the pain medicine finally kicked in and she was finally able to fall asleep. When she woke up around 8:00 AM, she was all smiles– the pain had subsided. By mid-afternoon, she had regained some of her hearing in her right ear. Not sure if I even mentioned this in previous blogs, but my mom had lost her hearing in both ears between waking up in ICU and making it to her hospital room. Y’all, when I tell you God is sooo good!
Sitting here eating and happened to look out the window. I know it’s God’s way of letting me know everything is going to be alright. Amen
Waves
Life happens in waves. Ups and downs. Ins and Outs. Joys and sorrows. Breathe.
No matter where the waves take you, know that God has you in His arms. He will never abandon or leave you. Again.. Breathe.
Smile
Smile. God is good.♥️ ~ Shaun
The Power of Discernment
Discernment– the ability to judge well: the quality of being able to grasp and comprehend what is obscure.
God has given each of us the ability to discern whether or not something is in our best interest. If it’s not, let it go. If it is, embrace it. Discernment is one of our superpowers. Be sure to use it.♥️ ~ Shaun
Blessings & Responsibilities
Every blessing comes with a certain amount of responsibility. Often, it’s a responsibility we never anticipated or something we have tried avoiding, yet it happens anyway.
Right after I resigned, my dad became sick again. My last day of work was April 1st and a week later, what was supposed to be a two day trip turned into a three week stay. Just like now, I had so many things planned for my new venture. Looking back, everything still happened but not as I had planned or within my timeframe.
Here I am again attempting to launch this newest project and all I’m hearing is be still and go with the flow. Right here, right now, is where I’m meant to be. It’s where I’m needed.
This morning it dawned on me that besides responsibility, there’s a lesson attached to my blessing. I’m blessed to have time to spend with all three of my parents. Although it’s not under great conditions, it’s an opportunity most people don’t get with their parents due to other obligations. At this time, the projects I’m currently working on are my own (which I can modify and/or postpone), and my children are living their own lives. So, I’m going to relax and go with the flow of things. God has always provided and will continue to do so. I’m blessed.♥️ ~ Shaun
Hello Sunday
Today’s a brand new day. So grateful for life. So blessed that Momma is still with us. Although the progression process has been very slow, she’s still progressing. Taking things one day at a time. Prayers for continued peace, patience and guidance. Amen

The Flow
Life happens, right? And some things are just completely beyond our control. I would say this past week has taught me the meaning of, “Just go with the flow.” However, it’s one lesson I’ve been learning over the past year and a half.
Last night I finally stop resisting it, even the slightest bit. Last night I changed my prayer from, “Lord, I’m tired. Please help me make it.” to “Lord, I know you will not put more on me than I can bear. Please help me handle things from a place of peace.”
Today, I’m going with the flow from a place of peace. Projects that need to get done will be done when I get to them. Deadlines will have to be pushed back, and I’m okay with that. I know that where I am at this moment is where I need to be. God’s got me. Everything will always work out according to God’s plan, which will always be in my favor. ♥️
