How goes it

Well, all I have is a bunch of random thoughts, but I had pledged to blog more and now it's into March with no blog. I have excuses involving vomit and lots of driving, but I have had plenty of time to blog, truth be told. I just have wanted to completely zone when I have some free time at night. I always THINK that I can be so very productive after the kids go to bed (now that they actually go to bed and stay there, most of the time, unless, see above under "vomit"). But something in me wants to do the opposite of work, typing, yoga, web design, which usually translates to me sitting on the couch or floor watching my new addiction, Dexter.

Anyways. I am on a roller coaster with my job lately, with them maybe getting a candidate but then some complications ensued so maybe not. I was so sad when I heard they might get someone, it shocked me! And every time I make the drive I half-way (okay, maybe a quarter-way) want to chuck it all and move out to the country and be their small-town pastor. I keep wondering if there's a way to meet in the middle, and perhaps there is, but that remains to be seen. I also am wondering if it might be good for me to live far away and still serve as pastor...that it might be like people who are married yet live in separate apartments, or even towns. They always say it works well because it preserves the mystery. Heh. SO not like my partnered life, but it might work for ministry. Very self-sufficient, these folks, and while they want someone to depend on for the heavy lifting, so to speak, they take care of each other just fine, thank you very much!

Back and forth, back and forth. So it goes. I'm also scrapping out another part-time job through doing weddings for pastors around these parts who don't want to, or can't, do weddings for non-church members. Lovely, and relatively lucrative.

And I haven't put pen to paper yet (I don't think I could type them!) but I have snippets of poems running around my head. Finally! I used to think this way, and it seems to be returning as well. So that's how it goes with me.
