lately i eat oatmeal for breakfast, with nuts and brown sugar. i like it super hot, and wrap the blanket around me while i eat. this started during my visit to grandma earlier this month... and i'm still hooked.

today feels hard. raw and unprotected. i'm asking for the Lord's blessing on my search for a new roommate, and for patience until the jobs all start and i am on my feet again with money. i will be provided for, this i know. somehow i know that, and so today i remember all those for whom this worry of provision is constant and unrelenting.
