I've made an attempt to spend more time off-line than on in recent weeks.... to spend more time doing than telling....
I've been getting busy spending more time reading to my kids and to myself, and focusing on making exercise a part of our lives. I've worked on sewing and creating rather than sitting in front of the TV (not that there's been anything on lately anyhow).
My house isn't as clean, and I feel that I've really disconnected from alot of the world, but I don't feel bad about it. I think I'm finding a balance of sorts that I was needing.
I think that I've had a real sense of urgency lately as I see my kids growing up and becoming their own people. I don't have forever.... they will only be the them that is today for today, and if I've wasted it there is no do over. |
