Sunday morning peace

Got up way early probably cause I was in bed and sleeping before 9:30 showed up. How peaceful and quiet it is at this moment. Can hear bugs and birds. I forgot to mention all the toads we saw while out for a fire Fri nite. Chrissie picked 2 of 'em up. She tried to convince me to hold one but nope, it was an experience I could forego.

So I wonder what the day will bring? I have a list of things I'd like to accomplish but none of it urgent. I seem to have more time on my hands now that job hunting is over. Well, I guess its not over until the background and reference checks are completed but I don't think God brought me this far to drop me on my head.

We might have more $ cause of the new job but some of it will have to go for a puter since I'll have to give this one back. I'll be spending lots of days filing did I mention I hate filing? and boxing this job up to give to the head office.

DM is going to pick up a tandem this morning that was offered us as a loan to try for this week. I'm heading to church.

I've notice that small talk and surface talk is difficult for me in social gatherings. I try so hard to not be he social butterfly I used to be but not be so heavy as I can be and haven't found the balance quite yet. So what I do is avoid talking to people but rather find tasks to do. I go to church but unless theres something for me to do I don't go to coffeehour. I know I know contrary actions and get out of being so self absorbed.

Thankfulness today:
quiet and peace in my life
quiet and peace in my head and heart



Weak appeals:
courage for coffeehour
help doing small things with great love

Hey girl! Balance is where we are at the moment, don't you think? I gave up years ago being critical of the way I am in social situations. I just try to be kind and I think being useful is a wonderful way to get through coffee hour. Have a lovely, lovely day.

I love it when I can feel real balance...it's not as often as I like...but when it comes, I try to take the time to enjoy it and thank God for it.

Hi gorgeous,

Stopping by to say hello and thank you for all your prayers and emails you send me. Means so much to me. I think it is a "small thing [that you do] with great love."

MUAH!!!!
