Jelly Beans!

This post is much overdue. I had intended to give it much sooner, like, oh, say, twenty five days ago, but circumstances conspired wickedly against me. So! Without further ado, I will proceed to show you several thrilling pictures of the Christmas present that my sister, The Golux, so kindly gave to me.

There are recipes on the side of the box! This one is Fruit Salad.

Beautiful, isn't it?

There. Wasn't that comforting? I find jelly beans to be a solace of warmth and happiness in the midst of trials. Life has been a bit chaotic of late - at least for me; to say that these past few weeks have been an emotional trainwreck and probably the busiest and most stressful of my life is an understatement. >_> Within an extremely small amount of time I was hit by two debilitating illnesses, commenced my first college class (English, unsurprisingly), and was - *rejoices* - hired for a job as a Page at my library. *proud smile* In terms of update, I am now feeling much better, I'll be going to work for the first time tomorrow, and college homework is killing me. I'm in over my head. Please send a rescue team in after me.

*no, don't drown!*

Brennan, how did you obtain a job at your library? Being the bookish type, I would like to know more about that. :)

You got the job! :) I was wondering about it...

Aye, jelly beans. Alas, there is a shortage here.

Strangely enough...the past week we of the Sadaar household have had a hectic week as well. One of the most stressful, and yet God has been using us. A phone call came out of the blue and may very well turn our lives upside down.

*sends in a prayer rescue team after whisper*

Whisper, sending in several prayer rockets now. Be prepared for God's will. :)

Over.

Jelly beans? *sigh* Yes, there is a huge shortage of them here... :P

*raises hand* Me too! Yes. Sending in lots.

(Hm, strange... almost my whole comment sounds like it's mimicking part of Jake's... *ponders*)

Thank you Noelle! :) Gladly, the snow has given me a small buoy of a break. :) Huzzah for snow!

Well, for about a year I'd done a bit of weekly volunteer work there (shelving, cutting out banners, sorting books for book sales, all sorts of random fun stuff) so that probably established some credibility there for me. :) Then a few months ago I turned in an online application for the job (I can give you the link to their volunteer/jobs page if you'd like) and... I was accepted. :)

Jake and Vrenith - a shortage of jelly beans? How tragic! That is terrible. If I had your address, I'd mail the Sadaar household a few, for courage. >_>

Jake - Wow... intense things happening for you. I hope these potential changes are for the better! In fact, I'll be praying so.

Thanks for your prayers, Jake and Vrenith! Thank you very very much. :) They've almost certainly helped; already there's been a marked improvements in my life. Thank you!

The jellybeans are absolutely, entirely, stupendously beautiful, Brennan. I can see where one of your fascinations lie... :-) I'm glad that you have -- as I'm assuming -- overcome the stresses you mentioned in that post! And, remember, if hard times ever come your way again, the jellybeans are always waiting. :D

Thank you, thank you. *bows* They were very cooperative photo subjects.

And yes, I think I have - gratefully - overcome most of that chaotic stress... but I still keep the box of jelly beans handy, just in case. >_>
