What is he thinking?


Why, oh why...(when life is already crazy enough)...does dear husband call me this morning to proclaim we have a realtor coming over on SATURDAY to do a market analysis on our house? OMG!!! What is he thinking? I am NOT ready to even wrap my twisted train wreck of a mind around moving right now, not to mention getting my house prepared to have someone come and look at it with a discerning eye. I am paralyzed at the thought. Throw in the fact that I'm bordering on psychotic hormonally and you've got a fight in the making. Was I supposed to gleefully profess, "oh honey, I'd be glad to runaroundlikeachickenwithmyheadcutoff in order to be ready by Saturday?" I wanted to rip his head off. (If you're reading this... sorry dear, I did.) Is this his way of getting the house cleaned?

I'll admit, since all of this drama, I've been less than stellar in the housework department. I've been mentally burnt out, probably teetering on mildly depressed...but I'm working on it. I'm trying to find joy in simple things, being satisfied with what I've got, taking great pleasure in knowing that "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven". (Eccl. 3:1)
But hey- don't rush me along here... I'm a work in progress.

I just got a phonecall from daughter #2. It seems she wants me to come with her out to the "Flats" to take some outdoorsy photographs for her class. Basically, she admitted that she's afraid to go out there alone and wanted a companion (aka bodyguard). I was planning on looking at new cars today, but I decided maybe a little fresh air and a walk in the woods might do me good. Maybe I'll even take a few pictures of my own.

Oh gee, that could explain my craving for weird things too?
maybe I'd better look into this?
