I have absolutely no time to blog. None. And I can’t find
a space to make time either.
And thankfully for me I make time for my IRL people (in
real life people) and blogging takes a backseat to that always. (I have never personally
agreed with the whole commenting all day long on other bloggers blogs and
ignoring real life people!) But I do make time to read my 5 five blogs a day
(two of which are my real friends)
So much has happened since last week and beauty’s good
news at hospital. We had 8 kids at the cottage for 2 days….we had an adult date
day and night at the pool and an amazing spa night downtown, I held a bday
party last night after work for Childhood wonder and had a bunch of little
adorable kiddies in my pool. My daughter started high school, my middle son
Grade 9 and my eldest his graduating year of high school.
Over the last week I have “caught” one boy in the pool
with his girlfriend tightly wrapped around him and mouths glued, and another
son kissing like crazy on the bail bed I lay on every night. Quite frankly I
did not know either had barely held hands with a girl!! Yes yes I know I am
ridiculous and naive.
I have questions from teens flying at me constantly and
big decisions to make “Can I drive my bike with one brake and sell the other?”
Can I drive the car home with all the kids in it?” Can I make my shirt shorter
for school? Can I go to bed later now that I am older?
And the wills. I will be seeing my girlfriend
afterschool. I will be staying up later. I will be shortening my skirt. Or the
wont’s. I won’t be wearing my uniform. I won’t be eating tonight. I won’t be
coming to the cottage this weekend.
So much has happened. And I have so much to tell and share.
I have so much Joy in in the last few days that I have not been able to feel
for so long.
But there is work to do at work. And book is finished and
now on final comments stage and then published!! And school to be organised for
in the evenings. And trips to be booked for November with my mom. And PG to
plan for. And people to see . and life to live. And friends to connect with.
And life will always come first
The present moment
The people in front of me or a phone call/text away.
And although blogging super important to me-it will never
replace those moments
So as much as I want to tell you and record these moments-for
now…I am pleased with just living them.
And not worrying (for the moment) that all of these
moments will be stolen by surgery this fall.
I am pleased…just to breathe a little more.
And worry a little less
