Dilemmas

I’ve had some weird experiences this week. I’ve enjoyed things, for the most part, but there was one evening that my stomach didn’t quite agree. When the girls stayed over at their Grandparents’ house, Jeremy & I went to On the Border, a local Mexican restaurant that I don’t think I’d ever been to before. What’s funny is, I got the idea to go there, because they had advertised “endless enchiladas” when we went to the movie theater about a week prior. I love enchiladas so much, that it’s become my “usual”, when ordering at any Mexican restaurant, pretty much, so that sounded great to me! Well, even though I only ate like 2 & ½ total enchiladas (and had the typical sides of refried beans, rice & chips & queso), I guess I ate too much. My stomach didn’t get upset, really… it was just in pain. I felt like I’d eaten a house, or something! It was not pleasant. I’m grateful, in a sense, that I actually didn’t get “sick to my stomach”, but this feeling wasn’t a good one, either. I took some Tums & felt better later on that evening. I boiled it down to a bad bout of indigestion, but after all that, and the fact that the enchiladas tasted only mediocre, in my opinion, at best, I think I’ve sworn off of On the Border, at least for a while… I’ll stick to “tried & true” favorite restaurants, instead!

Okay, now the strangest thing is, my closest family members have begun asking me the question that I’m so indecisive on: What do I want for my Birthday? And, sadly, I really have no clue. Usually, there is something I’ve been looking forward to getting and/or been wondering about if it’s even worth it. At least *some* item would stick out in my mind, so that I’d have an answer, at least *one*, but not this year… I’m totally at a loss, but I kinda’ look at it as a “good dilemma”, because it means that I feel so blessed that there isn’t anything I’m in want of. Of course, I’m typically not in *need* of anything & am so grateful that God has provided me with such wonderful things (including all the non-material ones) in my lifetime. However, to be not “in want” of anything, in particular… now, that is rare. I guess I should be glad… Jeremy & the girls actually have an idea in mind for me, now, at least… I just really wish I knew what to tell everyone else, ya’ know!? 😉
