Temptations

Today was really hard, not going to lie. I got done with grocery shopping, daily cleaning schedule (I was tempted to just do what was necessary but did the entire schedule), and the kids were down for their nap. I wanted so bad to just sit and watch TV and be lazy the rest of the day.  But the I got a sweet voice mail from my hubby saying how proud of me he was for really sticking with it and holding true to what I had said I was going to do. So that encouraged me (or more like guilted me) to finish part of my craft I have been working on the past few weeks. I am so glad that I didn't give in! Sad that it is so hard for me though. I mean it is just during the day I can't watch TV or be on the internet. As soon as the Titus goes down for bed I can have fun. But I think it is such an idol right now. I could be spending extra time with the Lord or doing much more beneficial things. Sorry if this seems like I am rambling. It is about 12 and I am exhausted but wanted to write a quick post.

On a side note, here is the craft I have been working on the past few weeks:

Yes. I hand painted them. Totally regretted the decision to use acrylic pint vs spray paint bout twenty beads in. They all needed at least four coats. There are a hundred of them. Do the math...

It is for an abacus for Asher's room. Now all I will need is my handy man to help me with the frame!
