Young Sheldon is a spin-off CBS’s popular TV series Big Bang Theory starring Jim Parson as Sheldon Cooper. Young Sheldon is also narrated by Jim Parson who explains further about himself and his family. His mom is Mary Cooper, a very religious woman who often turns to God and encourages her children to do the same. I, too, encourage others to allow God to be a part of their lives by thanking Him or asking Him for assistance. For example we each had a chaotic day yesterday though I think Claire and Biff had more unexpectancies to deal with.
One of our lights had busted at the
front of our car – we don’t even know
when or how but finally got around to asking someone to look at it. We had an appointment for yesterday. Richard was going to take it in and have me
follow – only the
other car wouldn’t start. We tried starting it on our own a few times
before we said a prayer. Biff pulled
into the driveway. An answer. I pulled the Nissan out of the driveway. Biff and Richard pushed the Saturn next to
Biff’s car and Biff
was able to give the car a jump.
We were on the freeway on our way to
Roseburg when Claire called to report that the bottom freezer had gone out and
our refrigerator wasn’t working
properly. Richard and I had already
looked at other fridges – problem is
they have all been too wide for the allotted amount of space that we have for a
refrigerator. Looking at fridges was a
much better time than cleaning out product and transferring whatever was salvable
but ended up throwing a lot of food in the trash. I don’t even know how much. I think an entire garbage bag.
Their initial plan was to go to the DMV
to change their expired plates –
something they should have done three months ago, but it obviously hasn’t been a
priority. Tough that was their intention
they were unable to find the title to the car.
I suggested that they pray and invite the Lord to help them. Whether they did or not, I don’t know. I did.
But I think my prayers may not work by themselves but they also need to let
him in.
Richard was all set on buying a
fridge. Because of the size we need, we
are quite limited with our choices. As I
had suggested Biff and Clair pray about the title I thought it only right that
we pray about the decision on the fridge.
Biff loaded the dishwasher with all the used containers and other dirty
dishes and washed and dried a load of laundry that I had left on top of the
machines. They were definitely
busy.
I thanked them both for all they had
done. We ended up calling the appliance
store for the fridge we didn’t
find as appealing as the one we’d
rather have but felt guided to go that way.
Also another expense that we didn’t want – but at least we don’t need to get
a plumber which seemed to be the solution when we encountered a flood on
Saturday night/Sunday morning. I thought
we would need to call a plumber come Monday but it was taken care of. We are truly blessed.
Anyway, because I always ask others if
they had prayed about whatever, Jaime has dubbed me as Mary Cooper. I should feel honored.
