ECC 8:15  "So I recommend having fun....."



So, I've started writing about 5 times, and each time I get about 12 words into it & realize it doesn't make any sense.  It was all pointless "jibber jabber".  Why?  Because I haven't really, not REALLY, spent any REAL time with my Very Best Friend, my Lord & Saviour & (the) Holy Spirit.  In fact, maybe that's why my head feels foggy, all I've done all day is think *work* thoughts.  Not that it's a bad thing to think about work, it's something I need to do.  While I'm at work.   But I need to learn to disconnect once I leave work and CONNECT WITH GOD!  I look back at what I've done this evening, and mostly it was a whole lot of nothing.  Messed around on the computer, took my Kaci out to do is doodle stuff, ate some supper (ate things I shouldn't have & now I feel yucky).

I remember hearing "all work & no play makes Jane a dull girl" or something like that when I was growing up.   Did you know there's an actual scripture about having fun?  ECC8.15.NLT "So I recommend having fun, because there is nothing better for people in this world than to eat, drink, and enjoy life. That way they will experience some happiness along with all the hard work God gives them under the sun."   I always seem to be weighed down with all the work I have to do, but other than visiting with my kids & playing with my grandkids, I don't really get out & have any fun.  I go to Bible studies, talk with friends.  But I can't remember the last time I just had fun for no reason.   ooops, I can, I went to see Iron Man 3 with a friend, Despicable Me 2 with my grandkids & the newest Star Trek movie in 3D with my son & granddaughter.  But when did I last have fun, just by myself, for no reason at all other than to have fun.  (& that doesn't include watching DUCK DYNASTY on tv, no matter how funny they are & how much I enjoy the show! LOL)  But truly, I need to get out of the house & find something to do that's fun!  

Tomorrow I have some studying I HAVE to do for a course I need to certify in for work, (should have done it tonight but ....... )  Thursday is for watching my granddaughter cheerlead at a football game.  That will be fun.  Friday I need to do something fun, just for the sake of having fun.  but what to do?  

Abba, I need some ideas, what would you have me do that would be fun, clean, wholesome and OUTSIDE the house for at least an hour!   (& CHEAP OR FREE!)
