Welcome!

Every night I go to bed, I have thoughts swirling in my head. Things to do. Scrapbook pages I want to create. Gifts I want to make. Skills I want to learn. And, of course, daily happenings that I don't want to forget, but invariably will by tomorrow morning, only to pop up in a random thought weeks down the road. So, here I am. I may use this blog daily to empty my head and heart before cuddling up in my duvet, or as it may be, I may write in it once a month. Who knows. It is for me, but perhaps something I write or learn may spark a fire in someone else. Perhaps it may quiet a mind or make you feel like you are not alone out there. It is for me. But perhaps it is for you.

Morning Thoughts on Balance

                                                 

So it is 6:30 a.m. and I should be waking up my son.  He needs time to slowly adjust to being up and spend some time cuddling and hanging out with me before I take him to daycare for the day.  If I don't get him up with plenty of time to spare, getting out the door becomes a battle.  But today I will let him sleep an extra 15 minutes so that I can squeeze in some time to write and reset.

This morning I am thinking that it could be impossible to balance if I am carrying to many objects at once.  But what do I drop?

This morning I am thinking that I do enjoy working full time, but I haven't figured out how to do this and still spend time with my son, get a desperately wanted and needed workout, make dinner, make lunches, go grocery shopping, fold the laundry, talk to my husband about anything beyond the necessary, and perhaps shower and have a bit of down time.

This morning I am thinking that something has to give.

This morning I am thinking that perhaps my husband and I can rotate weeks on lunches.

This morning I am thinking that I need to do some serious scheduling to get everything done if I want to stay happy and healthy.

This morning I am thinking that I miss summer and my little boy.  Perhaps I will cuddle up with him for a few minutes before awakening him, and then put on some summer clothes.

    You have a lot of thoughts for so early in the morning. Snuggles with the wee one are the most important. :)
