Home Life
It’s been just over a week that my tenure at Centex Homes came to an end. I thought that I would be sad or nostalgic when I left, but I found that I really wasn’t. I said goodbye to my coworkers, emptied out my office, boxed up my files and sent them down with people to the Inland Empire office, shut down my computer for the last time and walked out the door, leaving the Master the Moment sign fluttering behind me.
Since then, I’ve been enjoying home life. We’ve decided that I won’t be returning to work for the time being, so I’ve thrown all my efforts into housewifing. I love it.
This morning I dreamed that I watched Pulp Fiction in Starbucks with Jason Helms and then gave a gospel presentation to a woman on a dude ranch while my sister gave me pointers on how to effectively evangelize the lost. When I woke up and thought back over the dream, I was happy that I could accurately tell the story of redemption in my subconscious.
I’m on my way out the door for a walk, then I’ll be coming home and doing some house cleaning, making some dinner, maybe visiting some friends. I really love that the most pressing thing on my mind right now is that I need to go price comparison shopping for all natural face cleansers. A few weeks ago I was under the gun to get budgets corrected, presidents reports issued, sales release reports run, get the paperwork in place to pay the light fixture company the $40,000 that we owed them. I remember one day checking my emails, then turning to talk to a coworker. We talked for 6 minutes and in that 6 minutes I got 8 new emails - all asking for something that had to be done “right now.” Maybe in time I’ll miss that, but I’m thinking it will take awhile.
