The weekend cannot come soon enough for me! | |||
Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story She could look at me and say, “Your brain never functioned as long as I've known you. It has nothing whatsoever to do with how old you are. It has everything to do with a nonfunctioning brain.” So, I'm not going to give her an opportunity to opinionize on the functionality of my brain. My brain works enough to know that I better let that one alone. I have a lot of guilt on a Tuesday. I should be doing things, but I just cannot get the focus on what I should be doing. I'm looking down the week and I vaguely see Saturday approaching. It is so far down the road I am not sure I am going to get it in time. In time for what? I don't know. At least on Wednesday the week is half over. Monday means a new week has started, but Tuesday does not mean anything. I was sitting in my chair drinking some coffee when my wife comes up and saw me and asked me, “Do you have anything to do?” Since my brain functioning was limited because of my age, I quickly responded, “No.” Before I realized what I had said, I was in deep trouble. My wife said, “Good, you can help me with some chores today.” As she led me to the garage, I thought of the Scripture, “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest” (Ecclesiastes 9:10). The weekend cannot come soon enough for me! Tweet
