This is how I have been feeling lately...

The inbox has been full... the list of things to do at home has been long... and my personal time has been minimal. In fact my personal time would have been nonexistent without Mr. Man nudging me to put myself at the top of the list. At times I have felt completely overwhelmed, like the mule... stuck almost. And... well up in the air too.

So much of our future is up in the air. I figured that during my 30's I have put down some roots and have a grand plan. However, maybe life isn't about having "a plan". We are flying by the seat of our pants these days and there are days I feel like I'm barely hanging on. It's good though, especially for someone who loves to live in a nice and tidy box with tidy compartments, where everything fits just so. I'm learning to go with the flow, shrug my shoulders and say.. "I'm game." Most important, realizing as long as I've got Mr. Man, the kids, the dogs, & Boo the Fish... it's gonna be awesome, whatever "it" maybe.

As of today, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I can see the bottom of the Inbox. Things are getting checked off the to do list. It feels really good to be crazy busy, and then have it come to an end. When it's over, you can't help but feel happy like there are limitless possibilities as to what you could do with your time. I can't wait to clear off my desk and lounge in the sun. See you on the 16th!
