Day Three: Frustrated

I oftentimes find myself putting others' needs before mines. In the same instance, there are times that fall back on me that I wished I would have payed more attention to.

As I begin to pack things in the car for tomorrow's Prom set-up, the thought of my dress didn't cross my mind. I knew my dad was picking it up, but there was not a thought in my mind that it'd be the wrong order. Although my receipt correctly describes my desired dress, I ended up getting a dress that was my first choice. I did confirm with the worker that I wanted a different dress. Therefore, tomorrow, THE DAY OF PROM, I will be going back to that place and figuring things out. This puts a little more weight on my shoulders in a sense that not only do I have to worry about set-up and getting ready, I have to figure my dress situation. Thankfully my date is understanding and easy-going. I'm really happy about that. Prom may be in 21 hours, but in that 21 hours, I will make sure all the things will be going right.

As I end the third day of Lent, I celebrate the first Friday of the Lenten season. Normally, resisting from meat is a hard thing, but I easily went without it today. It's not so much of how it fulfills, but more so, a minor sacrifice to a lifetime commitment. With that- I am content and my soul is filled. So, I pray about this, and in time, I know things will be planned out accordingly. Until then... wish me luck. t-minus 21 hours. HERE.WE.GO.

Blessings,
