Life

So I've been rather contemplative lately... too much so, because I haven't even had a break from my thoughts to write it all down. But just last night, I came home from an evening babysitting job to find that my *wonderful* husband had set up my computer in the bedroom! What a *DEEElight*! I couldn't refrain from my "ooo ooo ooo's" :).

Back to contemplation. It's not a breakdown of what I believe, but of how I live my life... speaking in cultural terms. (Bare with me- I know I'm making almost no sense whatsoever.) I told My Love that sometimes I feel like I should've been born in a different time period- and then "Sister Sara" reminds me that they didn't have indoor plumbing back then ;).

I rummaged through (for the upteenth time) our packed away boxes--- to find, you guessed it, My Love- a book. I need my books- they really truly verily are my friends. I pulled out "Spiritual Disciplines of the Christian Life," and decided to try that book on again for size.

Here's one of my many qwerks (sp?): I find great inspiration from my Shaker cookbook. I guess it was there simple lifestyle that attracts me. Once again, I'm stuck in the wrong era place in history.

I long for a different way life, but yet do not want to give up some aspects of my life that come only with the life I live now.

Maybe I should just go live in a little cabin with now electric appliances- maybe that would do it for me. Hmmm.... maybe not.

Oh, yes, and one more thing of the day: I'm suddenly dreading being in a hot (though dry) area without trees! :(... God HELP me survive the heat...
