Welcome back to me. And, in case I had forgotten, it is apparent by the date of the last post, how scattered my mind has been. Yes, I posted February 29, 2010. A non existent date. Good stuff. Signs of overload.
The important part though is to note when too much is too much. When it is, you must start to relieve some things… a daily blog post among other things had to give.
Another important point to make is how drastic things can change when I stopped posting Peace of Mind -365. 365 is fun, thought provoking, sometimes tedious, and much more than I expected in many ways. Without it, things do slip though. Who’d have thought? Because even when things are rock bottom bad (and they were pretty close last week)… these are especially the times to take note of what is good. And this has taught me that there’s always something good...and it deserves as much if not more attention than the bad.
Today’s good: Purple. Brown. Lunch dates. Sunshine. Carpool Buddies. Finished projects. Clean toilets. Home. Blue skies. Green trees. Beach trips.
Out of the blue, over a morning coffee/water color time, my two year old told me all of his colors. He said, ‘next to me’ for me to sit by him at lunchtime. We’re spending the afternoon outside running. We may plug in the ipod and dance. My friend will help with carpool and my daughter. A beach trip is in the planning stages. Life is returning to a busy norm. And I am starting to take it all in and find a hustling happiness slowly return.
More tomorrow… as for today… I will gladly exhale.
