Writing

It's been a while since I've written this blog with any kind of regularity. It's strange how something that has taken up so much of my time in the past is now on the back burner.  Each day has become more of a passing thought on what I should write about.  Keeping this blog going was a great outlet for me and allowed me to express myself in a way that I needed.  When I was frustrated, mad, happy, proud, excited, and sad, I could write it all down and move on, so to speak.  I love having a journal of our adventures, experiences, and even every day moments recorded.  Life easily becomes a blur of activity and I appreciate the ability to look back and see what we were experiencing when.  There is an awesome feature on Facebook that shows you what posts from past years that you posted on this exact day.  It's amazing to see how far we've come (the potty training saga!!) or how little has changed (sleep issues!!).   This blog serves a very similar capacity as the "On this day..." posts.

These past few months have been non-stop action.  Between the food preparation I do on Sundays to get me thru the week, working out consistently every morning (either my boot camp class or running), working my 3 jobs, keeping up with the kid's activities and being a mom/wife/friend/daughter/sister is exhausting. Getting a healthy, well-rounded, home-cooked dinner on the table each night should be considered a full time job in itself!  Please understand, I am not complaining; not in the least.  I am truly blessed to have the life I have and love that I can do what I do for Jeff and the kids.  It's all good things that has me going, going, going.  I guess if something has to make room for the other stuff to happen, it's writing this that will be the sacrifice.

There is still so much I have to say, but unfortunately I don't see myself writing a new entry every other day like I had been.  Maybe there will be a point in the future when I can go back to writing more, but for the time being, it isn't today, or tomorrow, or next week. That's just got to be ok.
