Resembling Pam

April 6, 2007 by Kristin Leave a Comment

I felt a little like Pam yesterday.

I shredded lots of old bills and receipts while making an effort to organize the filing cabinet of personal documents, accounts, insurance, etc. I shredded so many things that I had to dump out the shredder three times. A large black trash is mostly occupied now with small fragments of so-called important papers.

Pam likes to shred things at Dunder-Mifflin. She even showed a colleague’s son the joy of shredding in one episode.

For the record, I would like to state that I’m on the Pam side of the Jim-Pam-Karen love triangle.

Sure, you could say Pam had her chance but opted for Roy. With Roy (hopefully) fully out of the picture, Pam is obviously thinking about Jim, and the friendship they formed that could have been more. Meanwhile, Jim is doing is best to get over Pam while dating Karen. I have nothing against Karen. She’s pretty, sometimes funny and usually focused (on both her work and Jim). But she’s not Pam. I think I can relate to Pam more (beyond the shredding!) because she’s slightly awkward and tries to be nice in a office that doesn’t always prompt such a thing.

And, thing is, Karen knows. She knows what I know: Pam and Jim have a connection. She knows Jim is good for Pam and Pam is good for Jim. Yes, they pull off pranks together, but that’s only the tangible effects of their connection. Now, maybe, just maybe, Pam is ready to confront these feelings of hers.

Go, Pam. Even Roy expects you to!

And shred some documents if you need some time to think.

    I am rooting for them as well. I really liked when Roy was talking to Pam at the restraunt. Roy figures that since he lost Pam to Jim, they might as well be together. It hurts to loose, but it hurts to loose even more when you loose to nothing.

Happy, happy 70th birthday to my wonderful mother- Happy, happy 70th birthday to my wonderful mother-in-law. We all are especially happy to celebrate her life this year after her recent quadruple bypass heart surgery and recovery. 🎉 #weekending #TeamTaylor #birthdaygirl
A new book by a favorite author is always a welcom A new book by a favorite author is always a welcomed thing, and @kristinhannahauthor didn’t disappoint. Plus it was my @bookofthemonth pick. 

#TheFourWinds is set during some sad years with the Dust Bowl, migration to California, and the Great Depression. Yet this is a story of hope and belonging. Hope kept a mom and her two kids going, despite circumstances that destroyed. Hope led to this mom finding her voice, recognizing her worth, and discovering love that lasts.

Seven weeks after quadruple bypass heart surgery, Seven weeks after quadruple bypass heart surgery, my mother-in-law moved home today. We were happy to care for her and we are thrilled she’s doing so well. 

I knew she was faithful and strong before, but watching her recovery from open heart surgery convinced me even more of her steadfastness and courage.

After three weeks, they’ve returned to school! H After three weeks, they’ve returned to school! Here’s to hope on a Monday morning for whatever comes our way. #momlife #reallife #choosingJOY #siblinglove
Often I don’t want the weekend to end or the sea Often I don’t want the weekend to end or the season to change, but I’m looking forward to Monday after three weeks of quarantine and sickness then snow. I’m looking forward to the snow melting away and eager for spring to bloom.

I’m grateful for health and family and home and a fresh start. A walk through the melting snow with the sun shining and temperatures in the 50s was a sweet spot today. So was gathering with friends we hadn’t seen in too long after church.

Just a few days ago I felt defeated and weary. Now I’m feeling ready and hopeful. Transitions can be rough, but ultimately I’m thankful for new mercies and new seasons.

We’re sad tonight was the last #MurrayState home We’re sad tonight was the last #MurrayState home basketball game of the season, but we are thankful we had some live winter entertainment. Of course, games looked and sounded different than usual, but the season isn’t over and we’ll be rooting for our blue & gold. 💛 #WeAreRacers #RacerNation #collegebasketball #TeamTaylor #weekending #socialdistancing #thirdchild
We all benefitted from getting outside today. Hone We all benefitted from getting outside today. Honestly, I was so bundled up I got a little warm because somehow I now live where 30 degrees (that feels like 21) is a heat wave. These three help me remember to loosen up and enjoy the moment. ❄️

I'm glad I was able to contribute to "Songs of Hop I'm glad I was able to contribute to "Songs of Hope (Vol. 2)", which was compiled by fellow writers @kerilynnsnyder & @sarah_e_frazer. This devotional spends 31 days in the Psalms. 

I share about Psalm 68 and how God built a sanctuary for me at our house in the country and how I want to share that with others. I end the devotional with these questions and a prayer:

"Songs of Hope" offers encouraging truth to bring hope to your weary soul. The devotional is a digital product so you receive the PDF immediately and can read it on any device.  There's a #linkinbio to buy this devotional and more info #ontheblog. #bloggerlife #authorlife #amreading #psalms #psalm68 #bettertogether #hope #KHTreads
I ended 2020 saying it had been a weird year, but, I ended 2020 saying it had been a weird year, but, truthfully, the first six weeks of 2021 have been weird too. Weird seems like a weak word, but I can’t think of another. These past six weeks haven’t been bad, have included plenty of great moments, and shifted so many things in our house. Through it all, my best friend Jaclyn and I haven’t gotten to hang out much.

I’m thankful Greg picked up her and her girls in his four-wheel drive truck yesterday after his short day at the office. We bundled up for some time outside, the kids had legit snow cones, we combined food to make dinner, and various people played various games. Jaclyn and her girls went back to their house this morning, but we are all thankful for old friends & new memories.
