one thousand (imperfect) gifts
naming these things, putting pen to paper, physically moving my body to be grateful is harder than it appears. Good moments, bad moments, indifferent moments, she’s right–they’re all His moments. Labeling one good and one bad, in my imperfect knowing…not wise.
Always a struggle to decipher the “Thank God” comments. Thank God (insert name) survived cancer. (and Thank God my mom died of it?) Thank God (insert name) wasn’t hurt in that automobile accident. (and Thank God my sister’s friend was killed in that automobile accident?)
Two decades ago, no thanks was being offered for my husband divorcing me. Now though? Yes. Multitudes of thanks for that first husband leaving so the husband of my soul would find me.
Maybe it’s just that I should expect that even in the troubling times, there will be some sort of benefit? But is that ok–to expect a good thing? Or is that prideful and selfish?
I have no answers. (I’m imperfect)
(and so are my attempts at gratitude)

Depth of field is the quantity of out of focus areas whereas “bokeh” is the quality of out of focus areas. You know, the dreamy circles that show up in the out of focus area? That’s bokeh.
Here’s my bokeh:

Me. I am disorganized. Sorta. I mean, I know where everything is even if there’s clutter.
And of course, I forgot to post popinjay yesterday, which just builds the case against me!
But, truthfully, as I sat thinking of a picture to take, I’ve come to the realization that I’m not really disorganized, I’m forgetful. Look and see. What do you think?
My art closet.
My homeschool/Relief/Diner/all things writing closet.
But then we get to this. Which never seems to go away. Ever. I really don’t mind doing laundry. It’s the putting away that I hate.
Maybe we should add lazy to the list. Forgetful and selectively lazy.

And how ironic. Popinjay is late this week.
Showing you just how organized I am (not!) right now.
Lemme just tell you how glad that the God that painted this has got my back. And if I’m not organized for a season, He still knows (and guides.)
