Holy Poo! I'm so sick of applying for jobs. I just spent who knows how many hours looking for jobs, saving jobs, and applying for jobs online. And I'm sooo done! I only completed applications for four different companies but hey I got something done. Near the end of it though, I went a little crazy in my probably 85 degree bedroom. I began talking to myself, and it merged into a British accent(which of course is more fun, but makes me sound slightly more crazy). The last application/survey I filled out was for the photo department at Sears. That's all fine and dandy but when I got to the last part that had you answer "basic" mathematic problems, I wanted to hit something! I had to go through and find the averages and add the fractions and percentages and yada yada. Good thing I was good at math in high school otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to get the right answers on all of them. Anyway... I am so done. I don't want to see another job application. Although there are two that I have to fill out and take in to the store, but those can wait for the time being.
Sooo as I sit here typing, I am also speaking aloud in my awesome accent. I think of the rest of the day. The rest of the day was so much better than the last few hours. I got up at 6:30 this morning and went for a run to the park again. It was quite enjoyable seeing as how it was about 61 degrees and quite pleasant with the quiet car-less streets. I plan to do it again. It was quite nice. After I stopped at the park, and prepared to run home, I made a decision not to. Instead, I decided to walk home. The air was cool and brisk and I wanted to enjoy it as long as possible. I walked around the back side of the park and meandered through the lovely neighborhood that sits behind it. It was mostly shaded and everyone still asleep so it was quite peaceful.
I think it's funny that I walked home today. I sorta felt a nudging in my spirit that I needed to let go of my earlier plan(mentioned in yesterday's blog? I think) of trying to run all the way there and back with a break in between and just listen to what my body was saying and what my spirit needed. I needed that time of just relaxing and enjoying being outside in the quiet. I'm glad I listened and it just goes to show that God always knows what we need even though we have an alternate idea of what we think we want. That is something I've been thinking about lately and has been coming up in different conversations I've had.
On another note, I went to a new church this morning. New for me, that is. Community Christian Center. One mile from my house. The worship was lively, full of claps, joyful noise to our God, complete with tambourines. The congregation was racially diverse, warm and friendly, often responding to the message with "amen"s, "praise God"s and the like. The pastor was encouraging, interesting, and easy to listen to. And I was personally invited to the young adults group on Tuesday nights. I'd say it was a good time in the house of God surrounded by his church. I plan on going on Tuesday night and actually look forward to going back next Sunday.
That is all for now my lovelies. I hope you are all having a splendid night.
