Oh Hello Gentle Readers. (And by "readers" I mean Addie and my mother-in-law.) It's been a while, yes? Yes. And...and...I don't really know why.
Yes I do. It's because I have been
hanging the metaphorical ice rings of my life and
waiting patiently. These are two things I suck royally at doing. I love proces!. I love planning! I love constant motion and moving forward! I love setting goals upon goals!
And when I sit down to to write, I start to explore and process and plan and try to figure out the next big step of my life. If I write it down, I can make it happen. And isn't a blog ultimately a way to put into the ethos our hopes and dreams and battle our fears and despair with a supportive, but delightfully invisible audience cheering us on? Ooooh! Oooh! It's my dream! Process, planning, making goals AND an audience silently cheering me on!? YES! YES!
NO.
Stop.
Step away from the computer.
I have numerous posts, started, but unfinished because I couldn't just share a snapshot of my day. I couldn't just be. I had to yes and, yes and, yes and until even the most simple post became convoluted and weird. (more so than normal).
So let's keep this simple, okay.
For the past few months I have been being a Mom, a Wife, an Educator (got a part-time job), and a Maker of Theatre (got some lovely short-term opportunities). I like doing all of these things. I am happy. And I am practicing feeling at peace with this. I am practicing feeling that Me, just Me without any Bells or Whistles, is enough.
Step away from the computer.
