Today was full of odds 'n ends. Like that catch-all drawer in your house, with random and surprising treasures.
The day started at about 5 this morning. I figured I might as well get up. Tried to cuddle the cat, who—although she still kind of likes me OK—seems to be growing bored with me. :-( Then devotions; a Psalm this time. Followed by an after devotion nap (which threatened to begin mid-devotions a few times). Fortunately it was a pretty interesting psalm, with apocalyptic images and references to Ezekiel. He's confusing reading, but not remotely boring.
Shower, then ready for a coaching appointment by 8. I find it SO rewarding, and can't believe I actually get to count that as work!
Off to a late breakfast with the Mr., then a bit of a drive to check out a meeting room on the edge of town. Nice place. Hopeful that it will really suit our needs well.
Home, leftovers for lunch (the last of Mr.'s lentil soup). A little TV. Laid down for a nap, but ended up playing Angry Birds instead. Up, feeling at a loss for what to do next, but not wanting to waste any more time.
Mr. left for a meeting and I had the house to myself. Decided to exercise for about an hour. Cold shower afterward felt sooooooo good. OK, now what?
I decided to research stock photography on the internet. I'm thinking I might be able to sell some of my photos. Mr. is talking about getting more education, and we'll need some additional income. I'm excited about the possibility of helping him reach his goals.
I think I'd love to learn more about photography. Lighting, angles, etc. If I make it more of my "thing" I'll probably need a fancier camera. I love my small point and shoot; I can take it anywhere. But I hear good lenses make the shot, and this camera doesn't have the capacity to change lenses.
Maybe I should sit down and read the manual for the one I have first; really master it. That would be a good start, huh?
It's a weird feeling to just grope my way through a day. I am the type who prefers a plan. But God seems to be asking us to kind of feel our way through a lot of things lately; the future is so unclear. Maybe I'm supposed to be learning something. Hope I figure out what it is!
And just for the record, two more English words that bug me with their ambiguity: minute and wound. So, do I mean "the sum of 60 seconds" or "extremely small"? Am I referring to an injury, or the past tense of the verb "wind"? (Not to be confused with the noun "wind", but I already griped about that one!)
