OMG. where oh where does the time go??? into eternity I think. up to the heavens waiting on all of us to review what we did with our Earthly time.
had the GI bug this week. don’t ever ever ever want that again. lost 2 days of work, 2 days of being conscious, 2 days of trying to be nice.
my boss told me tonight that I should stop trying to catch up at work because I will never be caught up. in my mind there is something inherently wrong with a job that you will never ever be caught up in. what does that say about my ability to be able to work on future projects? or think about the data and statistics that i am given related to students and resources and cost projections? or my ability to do any research on my own? that means there is no time for any of that. Which puts me in a constant mode of putting out fires, of dealing with interruptions, having my calendar appointments moved to make way for meetings that actually waste my time and my brain power ~ I could go on, but it is futile. i will continue to persevere. to have faith that there is some reason to do the job i do.
other thoughts. i re-read This Present Darkness by Peretti. eye opening again. praying more. and more. re-reading Fervent by Priscilla Shirer. another one.
Thanksgiving. there is a turkey thawing in my fridge. and cranberries to cook. and pumpkin pie to bake. cookies to bake and frost. and then to soak in the day with the blessings I am thankful for. no matter who comes home.
thank you Jesus for the life you have given me.
