climbing to the top

I couldn't sleep 

so I got up for a little bit. 

Went back to bed. 

I climb in bed 

that is against the wall, 

in the dark.

With lack of sleep

I climb and climb

to where my pillow is,

Where I thought it was.

I almost fell off the bed. 

Things I were holding 

fell and 

Crashed down

as I mismanaged 

where the basket was

that is beside the bed.

I had to catch

myself 

as I was falling

again 

And my hubby 

Is 

still 

asleep.

1 Cereal to Eat, 1 Church

People, including myself, at times have wondered why there are so many churches. 

 Think of all the cereals in the aisle of the grocery store. There are so many flavors. So many tastes. 

Some crunchy and soft

Some marshmallowy and some gritty.

Some hard and some chewy.

Chocolate, granola, vanilla or graham?

Made of rice, wheat, corn or who knows what else?

No sugar, low sugar, and sugar galore.

So many cereals to choose from.

Yet We all have one goal to eat.

We all have different tastes, different likes, yet we all should have one goal in the church.

To go to church to worship and to learn about our Lord and Savior.

When we are listening to the sermons it is like we are eating and taking in the word of God.

Helpful Tip During Crisis

During food or paper product shortages, remember you can also barter with your neighbors and friends if they agree. Last week I gave someone some face masks and she gave me hand sanitizer.

Today I might be exchanging toilet paper with my friend in exchange for potatoes.

This is one way to help each other out.

This also can help reduce stress during these crazy times. Stress can make your pain worse so finding ways to help is good.
