Yes, it has been a long time between posts, again. I am not even going to try and make up an excuse other than to simply say I haven't felt like it. Yes, I know that no one reads this thing so it doesn't really matter but there are times I feel like sharing something even if only with myself. With the craziness of the last year I haven't really felt like I could take the time to have a thought let alone share it.
We have always been a pretty busy family during the school year but this year it was taken to a new level. The funny thing it was all good stuff just way too much of it. The part that really got me was the stuff crept into our summer which has always been about our time. This year it took until the last week of July to clear the schedule and get a few days at the cabin. Yes, I know there are people out there who will give me the old "Ya, you have it so too with your summers off" and to them I say you can have the, off too. Simply go get your 4 year degree, take another year and a half to get a teaching certificate, sub for a few years to get a job and then take another 2 years to get your Masters degree so you can earn a decent wage and then be told by the government and society you are not worth as much as a garbage man because you chose to work with kids. (Oops, that is better left for another post.)
What I really wanted to say is man life is good and sometimes you really need to slow down, unplug, take off the watch and forget what day it is to enjoy it. I know my life is great and stopping to enjoy it gives a person great perspective.
