Calmness

I don't know if 'calmness' is a word... but it's what I want today. Lord, help me be 'in the moment' today. Help me be gracious; humble; at peace; pleasant to be around; hospitable; and aware.

Today is baccalaureate for Isaac, then his open house. Tomorrow is church, then his graduation service. People started are flying in, driving in, and getting in - starting last night. Today will be...

Sometimes I can freak out during times of lots of people being around. I don't want to do that today. [Calm].

So far, so good. Yesterday I put some tarps up around the pavilion. We had a brief storm in the evening which wiped out every single one of them. Arghh. But I just bought some more. [calm]

It will be okay. (Right?). Must go get ready.

(this post is all about speaking to myself - and God. Sorry to disregard the rest of you, but I am trying to be gracious, hospitable and all that. :) Actually, I am. But right now I'm trying to center on calmness. Thanks for putting up with me. Later.

(Note to self - don't forget to run through Dylan's "Forever Young" for church tomorrow. {my gift to the graduates})

Peace. Revolution. [calm]
