overwhelmed

What a day... first I lost the work I did on the schedule (I did save, I swear!) and then the scheduling fun began. This time of year there are so many nasty bugs going around... staff and residents have upper respiratory and GI bugs! EW!

I love our residents and staff but there are times I feel so overwhelmed by my disorganization and the responsibility. Why is it that in the 3rd quarter of my life I have the toughest job I've EVER had?I ask myself, "do I quit?" and hear a resounding "NO!"  because of the reasons stated about... insert big sigh here. Why do my people skills need honing NOW?? Why is my patience stretched to breaking at this point in my life? I did ask for this and I've again begun praying the prayer of Jabez... (Lord bless me indeed and enlarge my territory that your hand would be with me that I might not cause pain). Wow, the last part is the hardest... the part I want to be most diligent with... and then I hear, just be still. Help me Lord to trust You in all that.You said I was sufficient and that you will supply my needs. I am willing in my spirit but my flesh is SO very weak...
