A direct request was made for a new blog entry. I don't know. This is a lot of pressure. Mainly because I have not felt very inspired to write lately, and secondly because if I do write something I feel as though I should be witty. Which I'm not really sure I am to being with.
So what to write about? Here are my hot topics, in no particular order.
1. The fact that I can't figure out why little boys chose to turn to the side to look at something right when the start to go pee (yuck...and mass amounts of cleaning around the toilet). It's nasty and annoying doesn't begin to describe the mess. Man. I miss the days of potty training my girls.
2. I am suffering from a profound case of word vomit lately which can only be described as my fuck up faucet. It's like I can't make myself shut up, and this applies to all forms of communication: texts, email, spoken language. Even as I say it or type it, I know it's wrong and that I need to shut up. Yet it just keeps coming out of me. Gotta turn off the faucet. And I apologize to everyone I've offended lately. I have no good excuse.
3. The epic feeling that I am failing in all aspects of life. I know, heavy. But true. I am constantly running on empty and behind the eight ball. I abhore not having my shit together at all times, and right now I feel like it's spread out all over half of western Washington. And I also feels this is contributing to #2. I'm chasing things that cannot be caught, and need to realize on some things I just won't win. I need to step back and have the same idea with life that I do my kids, you have to pick your battles and not all will be won.
4. Good books! (Happier topics!) Currently I'm reading three (I know, I have the attention span of a 12 year old boy): The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook: A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius and Betrayal, Catching Fire, and The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt. Oh, and we might as well toss in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, though I am convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that I will NEVER finish this book. And I should put it on another list, cause personally I cannot recommend it as good, though I know half this country is in lurv with it. Bleech. Though I will watch the hell out of the movie just for Daniel Craig. Yum.
5. The next two months of my life.....WOW. Never mind the regular schedule of soccer, dance, swimming, Little Gym, school, work...but throw in nearly every member of my family coming to visit, plus friends visiting, travel for work and really nobody is going to see me until mid-December. At which time I will be having a full blown nervous breakdown over Christmas.
This is all I have for now. Until next time...
Hang in there my friend. As a parent of three I always feel like I'm running around with my head cut off and getting nothing accomplished. I keep telling myself it comes with the territory and someday I will pull it together. Between work, home, kids activities I have no idea where the sanity is hidden.I will admit to being glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. Love you, miss you and one day we will get away from all of it (even if it's just for a few days)
