Sunday Already?

Its Sunday.

After a crazy weekend - we have made it to the other side.

I worked a full week and then worked on Saturday as well.
My other half went to his 20 year class reunion and was gone all day yesterday and most of today.
Big thanks go out to family that stepped in to help us (me) out during this stressful time.

But now I am trying to get myself motivated to get back to work tomorrow.
I have clean clothes that need to be folded and a kitchen in a state of disarray complete with pizza boxes and dirty and clean dishes.

It was a beautiful day today. Cicadas were singing (in October!), sun was HOT, my youngest pulled a massive zucchini out of a garden, and I was surrounded by family and 3 cats for much of the day. This week is going to be a bit of a letdown compared to today but I have high hopes that we aren't on the downward slide yet to winter. I need to mow one more time at least - finish the spring garden clean out - pull out all the trees around the house... the list is never ending.

So I'm ready to get to bed a wake up ready to get to work.
Who's gonna come and help me?

Here we are again

And we're back.
Or are we.
Who knows or cares probably.
But someone close to me said 'You should write in your blog again' and I thought.
Yeah.
That actually sounds like a good idea.

What about?

Not sure.

Somedays I wish I would have documented my life better and then I think... why?
Somedays I wish I could write a novel but would I want to spend time doing that?

Lately my life has felt like it is racing forward and I can't catch my breath. Is that how it feels for everyone as your kids grow up and work feels overwhelming and the things you say you will do tomorrow wait for years to get done?
I don't want to take a day off from work to do those things - usually.

So here we are again... catching up.
Seems like a good idea.

Till we meet again.
