isn't it pretty?!

thanks, Erin!!!! (not that i haven't said that a dozen times already, but i thought it needed a little publicity too.) :)

it's funny how something as simple as a new template or moving your couch can cheer you up. not that i was depressed, exactly. just... well, i've been inexplicably out of sorts entirely too often lately, and i'm not really sure what's up with that. and today was so weird. i went to church for the first time in two months, and it was just really strange to be back. normal, but totally not normal either. i didn't really know where i fit... and trying to explain that to my pastor who very kindly and thoughtfully asked while we walked across the lawn to investigate the "issues" with the gigantic blow-up jumpy thingy/climbing wall/slip-n-slide for the church picnic - well. let's just say it was a disjointed and in the end less-than-productive conversation. i went home with more questions than i'd had when i walked in.

and sundays of late have been days of utter rest and solitude. today wasn't like that. i did go biking. that was nice. showering when i got home was even better. it was hot today.

but here it is, the end of the day, and i need sunday - and tomorrow is monday. how did that happen? oh, wait....

"sometimes what happens to you is emotional, Hap. I still want you to praise Me."

i'm going to go take out my contacts, find some cozy pjs, and spend a little time doing that, i think. on my couch, which is in a new spot....

everything's changing... and "it's all good". it is.

sidenote: while i was cleaning and reorganizing this weekend, i found 27 books on my shelves that i have never read. and that's not counting the dozen or so loaners from friends... lol. well. at least i won't be bored...even at two books a month, that's more than a year's worth of reading, right there.... :) and then there's the matter of that junk mail basket... and the other one.... ;)

My pleasure, Hap. Glad you like it.

As far as the church thing, as long as you aren't forcing the issue either way (going or not going), it would seem to me you will find peace. Sometimes a break is healthy.

I love the new look! Did Erin help you with it? Great Job.

It's so ancient and mysterious looking. Interesting and curious... like a curio shop. Its just the most curious thing!
