the enabler

Many became envious when they heard I was working from home yesterday (although I wasn't feeling well). But what they didn't know is that I sat in the same chair for 8 hours straight. No food, no bathroom, no turning on the television. Nothing. There are two very logical reasons for this: #1. My "new" chair is very comfortable (and I have Co-Worker/Friend to thank for giving it to me as my first re-upholstery project) and #2. I am obsessed with the internet. Dangerous combination.

My job search is like a very slow-moving train. One that hasn't made many stops, whose destination is still unclear. But just like I only need one husband, I also only need one job. I know God will provide it in the right timing, and although I'm sure I'll be nervous about starting something new, He won't give me anything I can't handle. One week from today, the train will re-visit a stop it's seen before. Ok, enough with the analogies - I have a second interview somewhere. I'll be meeting the CEO of the company, and I'm hoping that by the end of the conversation, I'll just know one way or the other.

THE. CHAIR.

I'm not even kidding, my heart just hurt a little when I thought about you sitting in the chair. I'm happy your in it. I'm happy your happy. But my heart is still missing a tiny piece of itself.

Goodbye, childhood. Er, I mean, chair.

So true! I'm rather certain you'll find both :)
