Splinched

Posted on by

(Refer to Harry Potter wiki or something for the definition of the title.)

An hour ago, I was lying on a lawn chair cat-napping by a neighbor’s pool in the 85 F heat. It was kind of nice to take a sun nap though I knew I had to be careful so that I didn’t completely roast myself. (I freckle and burn really easily.)

A few minutes ago, I saw an ad for L.L. Bean advertising some kind of jacket. It hit me then that I’m missing living in a place where such things are necessary.

Sigh… I’m missing my “four distinct seasons” again. I’m in California but my heart is stuck elsewhere.

No Longer Trustworthy

Posted on by

I’ve been a little busy in the last week.

[+] My mother-in-law had a party for my 30th birthday a couple days early… and my parents surprised me by showing up. (Apparently, I was the only one who didn’t know they were going to be there.) It was a great surprise — it’s been a hard month thus far and I needed a few hours of mom time.

[+] I turned 30 on the 19th. Yes, I am no longer trustworthy.

[+] I have a potential job interview on Monday. (No word from the interviews two weeks ago.) Pray hard.

Seriously Standing in the Need of Prayer

Posted on by

OK… some ways to pray for us right now.

[+] Jobs for Jon and I.? We need the income desperately.

[+] Internet for 24 hours so I can do Blogathon in July.? We don’t have wi-fi at the Snuggery and I need to find a place where I can have Internet consistently from 6 a.m. on the 31st to 6 a.m. on the 1st for Blogathon.

[+] For relief from the severe gastritis and spastic colon that all the stress is causing.

[+] For my father-in-law as he’s dealing with his health challenges.
