Jewells of Thought

Do you have baths that help relax your body and clear out your thoughts? Do they work on both counts for sure or is it a mild distraction for a short time?

The past couple of days have been sobering. In less than a week two potential jobs are gone. Come March it will be a whole year since I started looking for a job after that last position that took 7 months to heal from. Sometimes I wonder if I am cursed like Cain was from touching the soil after killing his brother. Obviously these are two very different circumstances but since I chose to look after myself over the job that took my sleep away and made me sick in at least 3 ways; I have to admit the effects are longer lasting than I ever expected.

Saturday seems like a blur right now. I do remember being at my Uncle’s for a family farm meeting and eating some tender pork loin, baked beans and applesauce with a lot of cinnamon. The applesauce also really hit the spot for me though too.

Finally after having finished those special projects at least one grouping of them I ironed them Saturday evening. It didn’t take long but I couldn’t figure out what bag to put them in. I thought I had a couple but they didn’t fit. So I ended up just handing them as they were not in any package to the preacher’s wife. It may have been better this way no bag to show off with. Only one other person was there when I handed them to her and then the look on both their faces and the legible gasps was all I needed. I will have a separate article and photos of those this week.

Goodness my thoughts from this morning are all jumbled up. I may have to do a ‘Sunday Thoughts’ tomorrow. It’s been a long day and a conflicting day of sorts especially this morning. My head and my heart don’t seem to be in alignment. Maybe a good night’s rest will sort it out for me tomorrow...
