cuddling

I'm feeling better today; still weary and tired, but the symptoms of my cold are, for the most part, gone. Still, I took it very easy today.

The kitty was just precious today. She laid on my chest and slept a LOT. She must have read yesterday's blog, or something. I was in my comfy chair most of the morning, snoozing and reading, and she would come and go, but when she came she just cuddled right up, purring like crazy. She nestled right in and napped with me for extended periods of time. Great morning.

Now she's batting a straw around on the floor; one of her favorite toys, along with whiffle golf balls.

I read the Bible for a while. Not a fruitless time by any means, but I was just hoping to feel more of a… connection, you know. I was distracted and upset about some work things (the org that we're here with, not work at the restaurant), so I had trouble focusing. But that's just the time when it's supposed to be most meaningful, right? I suppose after my time of study I felt more of a sense of calm, but it was a real struggle.

After lunch I wasted a good bit of time. Playing a video game, watching TV. I wanted to nap more, but the car lot across the street started trying to bang out a dent in one of the cars. Loud, annoying banging on metal. So, I watched TV with the volume up. Not restful.

To church, helped lead singing. Chinese for supper. Yum.

I'm kind of bummed about work. It's just frustration. The the traditional way of doing things seems flawed. Or, we (Mr. and I) just don't fit into the system. Or a combination of both.

I just know I'd rather paint walls and ceilings any day.
