Our project of redcorating ds's room while he is out of town has been less than fun.  Everything that could go wrong has.  It has been very stressful.  However, I am trying very hard to keep God in focus and let him be in control.  I have worked on the things I can control and am letting Him have the things I cannot.

One of those issues was that I found bedding and ordered it.  No one else has bedding comprable, not even if I wanted to pay a small fortune.  I guess that is why this particular bedding was so popular.  You see, I ordered it in the end of June.  Just after the 4th of July I received an email it was backordered.  I waited, but as my son's return is coming near (mon) I was getting impatient.  I called the company.  Long story short they have some 300 orders, 48 were to come in this weekend, and the next shipment wouldn't be until OCTOBER.  There was no way for them to tell me where I was on the order list.  So I started online shopping, again, for bedding.  Nothing, unless I wanted to pay double plus shipping on ebay.  Couldn't do it. 

I broke down about it on monday, knowing there wasn't any bedding coming.  The hubby reminded me of long suffering, handling stress with a Godly attitude, waiting while collecting info and looking for an answer.  I had resolved myself that it just wasn't to be, I can't control it, so let it go. 

This morning I received an email that the bedding had been shipped yesterday!  Most likely, it will not be here before ds's return, however, it might be.  Even if it isn't we got the bedding we wanted at the price we could afford!  Gotta love how God works!

These are my thoughts.
