raisin bran & i got no tan & when to say “when”
I’m only stating a fact when I say that most of the people we know ’round here are perpetually, really, extra busy. And I can now say from experience that it’s hard not to get busy when everyone you know is busy, doing good works & involved in the community & helping others. I suppose I’m just considering our own particular make-up as a family & how a busy calendar week-after-week drains us. And so, after a really long week, we’re spending another evening on the sofa. J is playing games on the ipod touch & I’m lining up details for a roadtrip & eating raisin bran. I can’t wait to get outta town.
we’ve spent the past two saturday mornings, dim & overcast, at t-ball games. it’s fun to watch little kids try new things. i hope i can always help my kids explore with curiosity & wonder and little trepidation.
so i can’t get over the busyness thing. life feels lackluster when we’re busy. i live with lots of dread when i’m operating in lots of administrative roles that really aren’t my gift/interest/delight. what should i do about it? i’m tired…otherwise i wouldn’t be posting this on ye old blog. maybe i should go to bed. farewell…and hello again in the morning.
what’s annabelle’s team called? she looks super cool in her uniform.

i learned this lesson at a fairly young age myself…that we didn’t do well as a family when we were busy all the time…and rushed. i too need “time to smell the roses”. that is what makes my present lifestyle difficult. somewhere along the way i hope this whole thing will get clear…as to how this puzzle piece fits into the whole plan. m
