I've really felt like blogging lately but don't know where to start. I really need to be journaling, in my own personal journal. But that's not been happening either. So here are a few things on my mind.
I love Vermont. It's beautiful.
I got to vote on Tuesday. As I was walking in I felt such am overwhelming rush of gratitude. It hasn't been that long since women were allowed to vote. Yet I usually take it for granted. I'm so thankful for people who go before to pave the way for rights and privileges I have. So, so thankful.
I've been sick for the past week. Got home and got sick immediately. No fun. Next two thoughts related to that.
I'm probably getting a roommate. If I think about this too much I feel sick to my stomach. So I'm trying not to think too deeply, just to follow the gentle feelings in my heart. I'm scared and fear is not a reason to make choices. Faith. Love. Those are reasons. So I'm not basing my choices on it, but I'm still scared.
By the way, this is what comes of having too much time, lying around, doing nothing but thinking while trying not to feel too miserable. Okay, it's months in the making, but if I'd stayed busy it wouldn't have come to this.
Busy. That's the last thing. People often comment about how busy I am, how on the go, etc. I think that's because they don't know really energetic people. Like my mother, my Rachel, my Aunt Ruth Elaine, and a whole bunch of other people I know. But I tell you what, as the energy came partially back today, I could feel the engines revving. I wanted to GO. Maybe I go more than I think. Also, after months of being either out of town or sick, I'm ready for life to settle down to normal (so I can get more done!). Not that I use time very well right now. But I say when I'm better I'll do better. Hmmm.
And those are the ramblings of a tired, half-sick, very blessed woman.
