I wonder why today feels more like Monday than yesterday did?  The day started off with the entire family oversleeping!  It is really my Father-in-law's fault.... he overslept and I usually gauge my time to get up, not by the alarm, but by his movements through the house.  He was the first one to be running late, but the rest of us sure did follow him. 

So, I finally arrived at work (late) and I get bombarded by questions from inmates as soon as I get behind the fifth grill...... they follow me down the corridor.... I mean, come on guys at least let me put my stuff down!  Oh well, such is the job.  Inmates are my work.

I am now sitting in my office with a little peace and quiet for a few minutes.  I have a really busy day today.  I am giving the GED test tomorrow and have get everything ready today along with all of my regular paperwork, etc.

I have been contemplating a lot of deep thoughts this morning.  I was listening to Focus on the Family on the way to work.  The subject was financial health and preparing for retirement.  I really need some help in this area.... I don't have a lot of self control in my spending habits.  I have been doing better in the last year or so, but I have a long way to go before I am in God's will with regard to my finances.  My husband is so awesome in this area.... I need to learn more from him.  I have a lot of praying to do in this area.  Did you know that the Bible teaches you how to be secure financially?  God has a great plan for financial well-being.  I just need to follow it!  

I must finish this and commence my day.  My open office hours begin in 3 minutes.  I will have many inmate questions and issues to deal with for the next hour.  Then there is my supervisor..... but that is a subject for another day. 

I want to leave you with this thought for the day from God's Word:

"Now if you faithfully obey the LORD your God and are careful to follow all His commands I am giving you today, the LORD your God will put you far above all the nations of the earth." (Deuteronomy 28:1).
