Today, I accept my fate.
I realize that in some way this is blessing. This, not having a job thing.
I am more able than ever before the fully focus on the Christmas season.
Justin and I have been reading from an advent book and to supplement, today I am making a make-shift advent wreath. Tea lights and garland. It works. : )
I can knit. I can talk to a cat like he understands. I can scrapbook. I can make homemade Christmas gifts. I can read my Bible whenever it strikes me. I can play Battleship, Yahtzee, and Sequence under the Christmas Tree with my husband. I can bake pecan pies. I can squirt my kitten incessantly with a water bottle to prevent him from knocking said tree over for the third time, or at least prevent him from lounging in it’s poor, feeble branches. I can hang out with a new friend. I can read books. Loads of books. I can rearrange the pictures in my frames to make them seem fresh and new. I can snuggle under my quilt and watch Friends for hours. I can make my eyes sore from the strain of staring out the window searching for the first snow flakes. I can finally learn how to be alone. How to be content with hanging out with God and a kitten for hours on end. And only God and a kitten.
This might be okay. For now.
