910

Wednesday. Still nothing. I want to wake up tomorrow and hear good news. We should get answers from four different jobs in the next couple of days. I want it to be tomorrow.

Today I remembered that I didn’t post my beautiful cabinets yet.
They look like this:

I’m not sure if you remember how they looked when we found them:

I’m planning to put another wine rack on top. Just for the view.

While I was looking at the pictures above, I remembered how much I wanted a cabinet for that corner of the kitchen and how long it took me to find it, and it came to my mind that when I really, really want something, I get it or I make it happen.
Sometimes I may have to wait for a while, but in the end, I mostly get what I want. And if I don’t get what I want, then I try to make the best out of whatever I comes my way.

I wish I could tell myself the secret of surviving the wait. Something tells me it’s patience and I know I don’t have much of that anymore.

It’s very strange how patience works. For example my sister is very impatient but she can knit a sweater. There is no way in hell I have the patience to knit a sweater. I probably start it, knit a few rows and abandon the project. But I could go fishing and sit there staring at the water for hours while my sister gets crazy after 3 seconds.
So it seems that one is patient only with the things they like.
Ask me to stay the whole night waiting to see an eclipse and for sure I’ll be there. Ask me to go shopping one afternoon and… No, better don’t ask me, I’ll probably say yes because I hate saying no. And I know I’ll be hating every second of it.
