LOVE???

Last month I gave a talk in church about Loving our neighbor. And of course there are some key people who drive me bananas. One lady just really gets on my last nerve. And so after the talk I gave I felt that I really needed to be nice and focus on reminding myself that she is my eternal sister, blah, blah, blah!

Anyways, these past couple days she has pushed my last button. I want to go off on her and tell her all the horrible things I have been thinking but have not said yet. But she works with my kids and I don't want to get them involved in any of this mess.

In another 2 months, I will not have to work with her anymore, so I just need to count the days, but until then I am having a really tough time.

I should be grateful that I have a short list of people who I don't get along with. I could have more. That might be fun! Anyways, thanks for listening to me vent. I am just trying to be good and love everyone, but she is really hard to like let along love.

I know exactly how your are feeling. I've found that most irritating neighbors (and irritated by YOUR being the irritating neighbor) melt when you show a friendly interest, take them cookies to appease, or whatever. But every once in a while there is somebody who goes beyond the edge of my truely Christian approach. That is happening here, with my neighbor and ward member, and there is nothing to do but hold on and make the best of a nasty ride. Our case is extreme to the max, but our (mine and hers) children are invloved, and for their sake, while I have to keep a watchful eye, I don't want to harm all the innocent little ones relationships, either. It's tough. Just hold on, and hope something will make it better.

You are the most easy going gal I know and to bug you has gotta be hard. Just take it moment by moment and remember you will be rewarded later in life.
