I Placate Myself

Posted on February 7, 2010 By Sister Rain


This is my backyard yesterday. Yesterday we hunkered down and watched the snow out our windows and the local news stations on TV report on the storm; we enjoyed being house-bound.

Today was the punishment for that crime. My husband and I spent the morning outside shoveling snow. We dug out both cars, our steps and our sidewalk.

So now we are done our chores and getting ready for Super Bowl Sunday. I just did a quick job search and found no new leads. As always, I placate myself (sounds dirty doesn’t it?) today by telling myself tomorrow is a new work week and this will be the week I apply for “the” job.

They say you should live in the present but it seems to me that most of the time I miss yesterday or long for tomorrow. I know that’s not right but it’s true.

I’ll tell you one thing, I’m not longing for Wednesday. More snow is headed this way.

But June . . . now that’s something I can get behind.
