Even when it's awful

Yesterday was awful. I spent most of the day cleaning up poop - in the bathroom (3x), off of furniture, off the floor, off clothing, etc. etc.  Plus was up at 2:30 am Saturday morning because she (my mother-in-law) had fallen (nothing hurt) and 3:30am Sunday morning because she couldn't get herself out of bed (was never able to fall back asleep either time).  But the funny moment was late afternoon Saturday.  After a hard day and having given her a second shower, I was kneeling in front of her to put her socks on when she commented: " You look tired. Did you sleep well last night?"  I took out the poopy trash and just burst into laughter! It was either that or cry - laughter was better.  Today was better.  Couldn't leave her at home alone to go to church - which I missed immensely - but no messes today. And I got a nap this afternoon. And, while staying with her today, I finished tax prep as far as I can go until I get more paperwork in.  So, ready for the week.  Thank you, God for getting me through the weekend! And if we could get a good night's sleep tonight, it would be greatly appreciated.
