It's been a slow last couple days following a fairly eventful week of lunches, dinners, and other such gatherings. This week is looking much less busy, which leaves my mind to wander. I still have that feeling that I don't really know exactly what to do with my life. I'm not sure if what I'm supposed to do involves a career, a hobby, or just a job - something as simple as cashiering at my local gas station. I figure everything/everyone serves a purpose, so what is mine? Oprah recently said in an interview that her nightly prayer is for God to use her up until he's done with her. I want that as well.
And who's to say that right now my purpose isn't to take care of Joe and be here for him. It feels like there should be more, but I'm not sure if that is always my own thinking or that of others wondering why I'm not working or asking how I can stand to be home so much. They've obviously never worked at a mental hospital.
Alas, right now I'm still a stay at home Katie.

There's no shame in staying home. I imagine you still need time to heal. Plus, as you as I know, working for a living is for the birds!
I think being a stay at home Katie is fabulous! Your purpose just may be to take care of Joe and support him. No shame in that!
your purpose is to stay available to come visit any time, any day or to allow me to come visit any time, any day. not good enough for you? ;)
Girl, staying at home is harder than it sounds. Just the other day Justin told me, "I'm sorry I didn't realize how hard it was on you to be a stay at home wife." And he was talking pre-Jackson. But I think you staying home to take care of Joe is awesome. And I bet he appreciates it more than anyone can understand.
