Four days ago I started this post and it was going to be a post about taking care of myself and so I can better take care of those around me, but now all that thinking, four whole days ago, seems like a distant thought. My friend over at Clove’s Corner wrote a great little essay about the exact things that I’ve been thinking about. Check it out here. She often takes the words out of my mouth, and I think that after I read her writing, I feel like I’ve purged a post of my own. I suppose it’s just nice to have a ‘friend’ that feels the same way I do. (Friend in quotes because we’ve never actually met….).
Some really great things have happened lately: we went to Harrison Hot Springs to celebrate Audrey’s birthday, we had a birthday/playdate celebration with the A-Town posse, Barry’s parents came for a great visit, and Brian and Darcy got engaged. Life is full to the brim these days, and by the end of the day, when I have a moment to write about it, I hardly have enough energy to sit down and tap a few words out. So, I chicken-scratch these posts together in hopes that the images and a few words will be enough to remember all the joy and love we feel. Hopefully I can remember between the lines.
Maybe it’s the two cups of coffee I had this morning, or the fact that the house is quiet, but my brain can’t quite settle itself into any sense of a pattern to write. So I won’t. Until next time.
