Monday, Monday...

A grey wet day after a beautiful yesterday.

I found this cute little shelf the other day in the

'give away or toss away' place in my apartment.

It is prefect for my books by my bed!

My slowly aging big black purse.

I love it.

I remember a year or more ago being at church,

helping out and seeing my purse on the chair in the back of church

and not realizing it was mine

and then seeing it again and thinking,

wow, when did I get such an adult purse? :)

I dressed up for the job coach today.

It was not easy due to the shock and emotions

that go along with processing my job loss.

But at least I could wear my new clothes

(they came the night I was laid off,

I decided just to keep them and wear them

and interview in them, etc.)

New long brown skirt;

brown shirt hidden by

cream jacket that a friend from church gave me

and a new lapis blue with silver trim scarf.

I have a slightly more casual light brown jacket

that goes well with it.

Tomorrow I am helping out with church,

reorganizing my house

and organizing myself for continued job search activities.

God is with us,

through all pain, loss and heartbreak.
