I have not blogged in so long.
I guess...I feel guilty when I dont have anything profound to write. I feel like I should be writing encouraging thoughts, scripture, musings...when really, I am just getting by.

I am still unemployed and it still royally sucks. It is going on two months now, and I am struggling so much. People keep asking me if I have a job yet and then when I say no they say things like "well, you just have to keep trusting God!! He has a job for you!" But really, sometimes that does not encourage me, because I feel like my having a job is conditional on whether or not I trust God enough. I am trying. I pray about it. I cry out about it. Sometimes I have peace. But really, more often than not, I fail at trusting. So I just keep searching. And hopefully I will find a job soon, because every day I broaden the search criteria to encompass another field. It went from a bunch of specific administrative and writing jobs to sending a whole bunch of resumes to Early Childhood Education programs. Go figure.

In other news, Allen and I got a pet last weekend. He is a baby (2-3 month old) albino rabbit (white with pink eyes). We picked him up at an antique market in Potter County and named him Doug Bunnie. Hehehe. He is currently hopping the perimeter of my living room and dining room, nibbling on whatever he finds on the floor. He also poops on everything. I have taken to holding him in a blanket so to collect the piles of poop. I'll post a picture when I feel like loading them.

This summer's girls Bible study is about over, but I am looking forward to possibly beginning a fall one for the first time. I love teaching and leading a small group. It helps me so much.

Allen is taking me to see Jodi Picoult speak for my 22nd birthday, which is in a little over two weeks. I am so excited. Allen is far less excited as this would put him in nerd levels beyond anything he has ever known. The things my husband does for me :-) I love him.

Now off to eat my nutritious lunch of some Lean Cuisine Off-brand sweedish meatballs and Kashi Harvest Cheddar Crackers (my new favorite snack!!)

Peace out.
