In recent days, I have had a few good conversations about writing and the idea of simply showing up to do the work one has been given to do. Coupled with my current reading of Grit by Angela Duckworth, I feel motivated and inspired. It's a good feeling to have heading into fall and a new school year and a couple days to myself each week on the horizon.
Apparently it is the summer of the cough, as well as the summer of the failed fridges. I had to throw away $60 worth of ribs that went bad in our garage fridge last week. Simultaneously the compressor on our inside fridge started to go out, so after we made it through July 4th, with new ribs for everyone, I shuffled most of our food to the fridge in the apartment over the garage. All was well until yesterday when the girls left the fridge door in the apartment open from breakfast till lunch while we were at church. I lost the food and I almost lost my mind.
