I like what this photo has to say. My favorite thing to do is write, and when's the last time I wrote on here...? Yeah, I need to make time for it. I need to write, whether it be my book, on here, or just notes to myself. Sometimes texting will actually even fill that void-when texting actually means something. Not the countless texts that we send that are essentially just noise. But every so often, texts are a way of cleansing the soul, the way emails used to do.
Life hasn't slowed up any. If anything, it just keeps adding on. I'm not sure how we all do it? Some do it much more gracefully than me, that's for sure. The weight I've gained since going back to work in December is truly embarrassing... In my head, I'm working on it. I had a good run recently at it, and I'm not throwing in the towel on that. I'm not ready to say that run is totally over. Today...after a week of terrible PMS...Aunt Flow finally came a knockin', so I'm going to say today is not that day, though. But I feel it...I feel the excess of everything lately. I feel like shit. So, I am going grocery shopping for real food after work today.
I got back on Monday from a Vegas trip with two of my close friends. Oh, what a great time. We got our fill of deep girl talk, Autism talk, silliness, drinking, gambling (well, I did anyway), sitting poolside, laughing and more laughing, and trying new things. It's just what I was hoping for from the trip. After the flight home, I came back hitting the ground running. I went from the airport to an appointment for Cal with the Orthopedist and from there went to Ryne's football game. Yeah, I was pretty well spent. Brian said that night I was snoring like a freight train, and he couldn't even wake me up. I'd say that's the sign of a good trip :) So, it's now time to think, I need a vacation from my vacation...as the old saying goes. But, I couldn't have asked for anything more.
It is good to be home, though. I missed my boys, Jesse, my work friends, and having a routine. The older I get the more and more I realize just how much I crave and appreciate routine. It's my center.
Well, I just took a short lunch, and made it my priority to write today. It fills my soul with goodness. I should get back to reality and a job that I'm not sure I'll ever be caught up with. I know, just like everyone else.
Happy Hump Day.
