Ok this post has absolutely nothing to do with my cat. But he is pretty dern cute. Especially lately when he actually wants to snuggle.
We’ve done a lot of packing and unpacking and repacking and purging lately. It’s been a weird experience to say the least. In some ways it’s kind of nice in others not so much. On one hand our stuff is just sitting stagnantly out in boxes in the garage until we hold different cards in our hands and we are able to have space to use it. On the other hand… I really want to use it. I want to have my photos up and things out. I miss having that “home” idea. You know that place where your stuff doesn’t live in boxes. Yeah. I’ve done a lot of contemplating lately. About jobs and school and life in general. We’ve talked a lot about what we should do next, how stressed we feel at times, and how discouraged we are to not be able to support ourselves. We keep applying. we get rejection letters. I feel sad. He feels sad. And then the next day we wake up and try again. we just keep trying and hoping that things are going to get better. We know that eventually things WILL change. Nothing stays the same forever.
The past few weeks the weekends have been magical. We’ve seen several different beaches and several different climates if you will. we’ve fell different kinds of sand on our toes, gotten soaked in sea water, and hunted broken shells along the way. We’ve seen a lot. One thing is for sure… California is beautiful. It’s gorgeous. There’s a reason so many people live here. I think even when times are tough God gives us a glimpse of something beautiful. We just have to choose to see it.
