The reality of never becoming a "Design Star."

As I made a reality stroll through my house this morning, some things became very clear. After being gone for a week, having company for a week, and getting sick for two weeks, I have a lot to catch up on. I saw that the floors needed to be mopped, toilets need to be scrubbed, dusting and vacuuming need to be done, and windows needed cleaning... Then I noticed two things that needed attention, but with some thought and hesitation I came to the conclusion, that just maybe these things weren't critical as the other list.


I am just sure that everyone is jealous of my cluttered fridge... ha ha ...it's surface is full of love notes, reminders, and cheery magnets. Even though I know it is time for some of these things to come down, they will soon be replaced with new treasures.


and....Who wouldn't want a Bishop's office set up on their dinning room table? At first I saw clutter, but then I saw something a lot more meaningful. I saw a Bishop who is trying so hard to serve the best he can. One who prepares diligently to speak to, counsel, and guide those he is in charge of. It put things into perspective for me. So for the time being...


The reality of being a "Design Star" is on permanent hold.
