Non-coincedence day 6: Juicy center of a Michael Jackson Sandwich.


Day starts at 6:30am Saturday morning. Key word is Saturday.  Jovi jumping up and down in her make-shift pack n' play bed infront of the airconditioner, staring right at me and whiny crying. Ed is gone and the busy dog is missing. The lazy orange dogs and I tried to finish our dreaming but were unsuccessful. Jovi wins. I barely make it down the stairs with my drunken state of sleep. There is my beloved listening to Michael Jackson, 'The way you make me feel.’ My husband is a morning person.  I grumble sleep talk said “if you are up, you can take Jovi with you when she is up too…grumble, grumble.” It is impossible to be angry with the Michael and his ‘uhh-chunkaohhh’  going on in the background. 

Middle of the day at 3:30pm I get a random restricted phone call that I question and decide against answering. That was it. After weeks of phone calls, emails and unspeakable worrying and future planning, the human resource director calls me late on a Saturday afternoon.  The message said I have an interview the day after tomorrow. Trying not to think about the weirdness/unprofessionalness of a restricted Saturday afternoon phone call and a one day preparation time, I am soooo excited! It just seems funny that after an entire year that I could have known what I was doing, had a nice comfortable plan and been ready, I get a random Saturday afternoon call.  When I finally let all the stress and worry go a bit and decide to float along trusting God, I get a crazy call. That is just like how God speaks to me sometimes. When I fight so desperately for what I want him to say and when I want him to say it, it’s like trying to catch a fruit fly. I never catch it and just get end up feeling frustrated, annoyed, exhausted and alone.  But when I just let him speak and I just relax and listen, the peace and calm of his way just lands on me and I am elated.

Day ends 11:30pm driving home from our fabulous dinner with young married couples where we had delicious food and conversation. The radio on scan blares dear Michael with ‘the way you make me feel’. Again I say, it is just impossible to not be happy when that song plays. I loved that song as the book mark to my day. I highly recommend anyone who reads this to go listen to that song.  Ed and I will be working on a choreographed dance for our next wedding day dancing extravaganza. There is so much to be excited for in my life.
