Another Busy Week

It surely seems that one can't sit down for five minutes this week. I feel like I've been on the run since Sunday, and that brief pause in the darker hours is merely a short re-charge, but not a complete charge.

Monday was a typical Monday for me, but not an outrageously difficult day. Just felt busy.

Tuesday was spent trying to get Little Man to finish a non-fiction book report that was due Monday, and then figuring out a visual aid for the presentation part was fun. Thankfully I have a friend with a ferret! Thanks Misty!

Wednesday was an early release day, but had a retirement party for a teacher that day, and that was followed by the final wellness class.

Today is a nail appointment day (and thank goodness, since I tried to remove one the other day - without the proper equipment and that really hurts). This just means I can sit still for a bit.

Tomorrow is Daddy-o's birthday, so a visit just might be in order.

Saturday will be taken up with getting the house ready for the inspection.

Sunday is the Heart and Hands meeting for sorority, so it will be busy too. I might look forward to Monday for a break.

I know we all are busy, so I am thinking we should all try to find five minutes to be thankful we can be this busy, this active, this full of life. I am grateful that I can do all this running without having to haul a cane, a walker, a wheelchair, or an army of assistants. Those folks who do all this running with these extras in their life are amazing! I also take my hat off to those folks who manage running with special needs kids (who are awesomely special kids!) too. These folks deserve recognition for the great love they possess, and spread to those who they touch.

Have a blessedly busy week!!

I love being busy (and wow are YOU busy), but you have a very good point here. Those people are definitely very special. :D

Stina, I actually prefer being busy, but LOVE my downtime with my kid, and playing seek and find games on my computer. Keeps the brain strong too.

I have been fortunate to be friends with some of these people and have been truly blessed by being a part of their lives.
