Grocery shopping...a chore to adore???

I was just reading Candy's post "Toilet Glee" over at Keeping The Home and was truly inspired this morning. I think we all have tasks in our lives that we do...though we reeaaalllly don't want to :P The trick is to find joy and contentment in those tasks.

Yesterday, I spent the lion's share of the day running errands (grocery shopping, bank, library, etc.) This tends to be a weekly outing for us, and one that I would love to skip :P But the bottom line is that our family needs food and those errands need to be done. By going out and doing them during the day, it's a blessing to my husband as then he won't need to do them on a day off. I need to find joy and contentment in those small tasks!

Take a minute to stop over to Candy's blog and read the full post....

Aw, thanks for the link. I'm glad you liked the post. :-)

I had a busy day out with the kids today, as well. We stopped at the new house and handled a few things, then got groceries, then played some games a family fun center.

But I love taking my kids out - now, toilet cleaning, I have to remind myself to be joyful on that one. ;-)
