Just another day in...

Paradise
I was late leaving the house to get KD to school early for choir practice, Two houses to clean this morning before noon. Painted at my mom's, another school run at 3, took one to piano lessons, went to the store with my mom & sis to look for stuff for my mom, picked up KB from lessons, back to store, took Meshayla to guitar lessons, back to my moms to clean up paint mess, back to pick up girl, picked up supper for husband & dropped it off at his work, brought kids home, House is a mess, dishes to wash, supper to make, Vacuum motor burned out yesterday, Washer is not repaired still after 3 weeks, (Do you want to guess how much laundry is piled up?)
Sent sassy son to bed with no supper, discovered my green lampshade is now faded to blue, Mirror cabinet is still off the wall after falling 3 weeks ago.  Bible study here tomorrow night, 3 cleaning jobs on Thursday, one on Friday plus mom's painting to finish up this week. Company coming in a couple weeks for 2 days that I would prefer having clean bedrooms & bathrooms for besides some food in the house, a new grandbaby that will make her appearance sometime in the next 3 weeks, plus the next three Sundays being our Winter Specials in this area.


Oh, that was facebook that asked me what was on my mind, not you???

Time

 I read this the other day:

 http://www.kellehampton.com/2011/11/busybody.html

I thought she said it very well.
I'm kind of tired of the word busy too.
It's life, and the truth of it is,
all of us generally manage to make time for what we want to do the most. 


That said, yes; from the first of September to the first of November was one big busy blur.  Not only physically, but especially emotionally.  I don't seem to manage to blog when my mind is too full.
I hate it that I let nearly 4 months go by and have no journal record of our days.

They were special days.  Fast days, slow days, Emotionally tiring days and sweet days. Close at home days and far from home days.  Days with family, days with friends.  Days with travel, Unexpected  happening days, Days of death and days of birth.

It reminds me of some of my favorite Bible verses--"A time for everything under the sun..."

And the sun is down,
It's time for bed,
I didn't get my blog post done.  BUT....I'm here again, I'll be back soon to continue.
