It’s getting cold outside again. I tried to walk outside and lasted only a few minutes. They’re predicting anywhere between 8-11 inches of snow on Sunday which already had our church secretary sending out emails to inform the congregants of the canceled church service. It doesn’t happen very often, but I actually like when pastors cancel church for snow in these instances. Sometimes God is simply telling us to stay home.

Nature is something you don’t mess with. During group today my phone went off with a voicemail from my boss saying that she needed to talk to me about something. Boy did I give that way too much energy. Turns out she was only checking in on the people scheduled for the weekend and making sure we’d be able to come. She and the care center director are planning on staying through the weekend to be available for backup.

Josh is already planning on taking me and picking me up. I’ve still felt like moderate crap but I’ll be okay to go to work. After group I came home and changed into my pajamas after dropping off one of the boys at the neighbors. It’s one of the boys who was in his class at school. The mom when I was dropping him off said she had said to another mom that she wanted to be best friends with me. The other mom said I was so pretty.

I’d wanted to have her son over back before school started. She’d texted while we were on vacation and I said we’d try to find a time once we got back. With busyness on my end and then on hers it never happened. So I apologized for that and for not getting back to her. I finally started talking in group so now I just need to turn it into a habit or something that happens without you really even thinking or your heart pounding too.

I really like the thrive center and wish I could see my future with it. Do I ever work there? Do I walk away? Do I need to be intentionally investing more time? I like having flexibility but when you can’t commit you’re a nebulous cloud. I came home and rested for the rest of the day. Dad and the boys were working on some van repairs and Elianna managed Zorro and tuned her guitar with my phone. I’m very grateful for warm houses.
