What the...?

I was listening to Christmas songs on iTunes tonight (Stay tuned for news of a really cool project.), and I realized I was totally digging it. Today I was in Old Time Pottery dropping off a job application, and I found myself dreamily wandering through the aisles of Christmas decor.

Could it be that my Christmas spirit is making a premature return? It's been pretty much dormant for the past two Christmases, but it needs to hold off just a tad. If I start this stuff now I'll be sick of it by December...no, Thanksgiving.

But, I could go downstairs and watch White Christmas. Hmmm. Do we have any cocoa?

Glimpse into our Life

David opening a new bottle of medication Sunday night:

"Why do they put cotton in a bottle of medicine for emotionally disturbed people?"

He was frustrated trying to get to his prescription, and there was quite a bit of cotton jammed down into the bottle, but at least he could laugh about it.

No luck

I heard back from last week's interview. They picked someone else. Oh, well...keep on keeping on. Not going to give up.

Another thing done

This print has been leaning up against the wall in our office for months. I painted and distressed the frame and, with David's help, hung it in my bathroom.

I tried to do some research about this print, but I couldn't find any information online. All I know is it hung in my house most of my growing-up years, and I have always loved it.

Another Day

Good Morning! For someone without a full-time job, I certainly have been very busy. Tuesday I had the interview. Wednesday I worked at the Methodist Publishing House. Thursday the same. Today I'm finishing cleaning my house, going to
Wal-Mart, and babysitting Lex. I'm glad I don't have to get on the bus and go into Nashville today (unless I get a call about a second interview, then all this will change).

My interview went really well on Tuesday. I'm just waiting to hear back because they were interviewing some other people as well. I left a voice mail yesterday, so maybe today I'll hear something!

Big Day

I want to say huge thanks to everyone for being so supportive both on my blog and on myspace. It's really been nice to know people are thinking of me.

So, keep those prayers and good thoughts going because...I have an interview this morning. At 10:00.

Off to iron my blouse, fix my hair, and in general, look presentable for the first time in about 5 days.

The morning on which I feel guilty

Last night I had to shoo Lucy out of our room and close the door. It was only 1:30, and she kept getting on our bed. We don't mind if she sleeps up there, but she was sitting ON DAVID'S BELLY and bathing and scratching and jingling her little bell on her collar. It was driving me crazy. She moved, and then just started doing it again...and again...and again. I kicked her out, but I feel sort of guilty.

Oh, I had had lots of things I wanted to blog about, so I just did them on Sunday. In case people were wondering if I was bored. Not really...I just finally had the time.
