Yesterday I stripped my bed and washed all of the bedding. It wasn't on my list of things to do or even high on my list of things that were due soon. My plate was already full, my energy level low after a poor night's sleep. But, for the first (and hopefully last) time in her life, Sasha wet the bed. So, the unlikely became the immediate. I carved out time to head to the laundromat... not only to wash the comforter in a large capacity washer, but to dry sheets, et al, since the dryer vent needs to be replaced before I can run my dryer.
This incident also necessitated a bath for Sasha, so I bathed the other two while I was at it. And, since bathing Sis Sue is much like bathing a cat, I had to jump in the shower afterward.
But, last night I crawled into a wonderfully fresh bed surrounded by sweet-smelling critters. And slept like a log. A good and totally unanticipated ending to my day.
I wonder how often God insinuates "inconvenient" events into our lives just because He wants to give us that good ending.
