Time Thought

Have one of them days where you wonder if you've done the right thing? I mean, in a situation/relationship? I see eyes rolls now in cyberspace! I digress.
To the specific point: being told you do not show someone else you have time for them. I was unable to make a "Meet Up With a Chum Date" due to times did not crunch as needed. The Chum Date came up on a lark, and I thought I could make it. It was my bad, I didn't check times before I said I would. I apologized that I couldn't. The Chum Date made a joking/snide remark. And not heard from em since. A girl chum (and you know we girls psychoanalyze best of chocolate or lattes), suggested I may have given off the vibe I didn't have time for the Chum Date.
Really? I looked at the situation. Realistically--I hoped. I thought of how I respected this Chum Date's time, conformed to their available times, because they are such on the go, and listened to their day whether good and bad, while I stirred coffee, only to wish my coffee was a mocha latte--yet not one question posed to me about my day--good or bad. When I did try to chime in a sentence, there was dead air, then Chum Date went on with their own thought.
Yet I do not seem as if I have time for them...
Really?
Stay tuned.

Easy On


Dallas' record snow fall of 12.5 inches is all but melted. Birds are happy, since they have to hop around on the snow anymore to get to food--for now. See, the weather Folk say we might get a snow flurry or two tomorrow.
No matter. That's tomorrow.

On this day, spent a good chunk of it with a long time chum. Overdue us for a together, hence gobs to catch up on. Lotsa girl gab, coffee, laughs and homemade chocolate meringue pie. .YUM!
Good chums make it easy on to be a Good day.

Don't get any better than this.

So You Try

To be patient. Ain't your best characteristic. You're grateful to have a job, yet not the job you want to be grateful for. One of your buds, Bucket (who has been your computer guy for anything you've asked him and says he wonders if you'll invite him to Burger Island again) leaves a week from Friday. And you think another chum, Movie Man may follow suit. Now you know Movie Man reads this blog and he will say, "You don't know that." Let's just cut to the chase, yes you do.

Back to the matter at hand. So what about you? You think of the positives. How you are truly blessed. How He got you up this morning. How He got you through this day. You remember how He said he would rescue you as long as you promised to give Him all your troubles. And all you had to do was give Him glory (That's from Psalms 50:15 if you thought it sounded familiar).
Yet you still wonder, "When is it my time?"

When He says it is.

Patience.

The Holidays are pretty much right here. Yep.  Especially since three Christmas movies, in the last three days, between Lifetime and Ha...
