So, I'm taking Mike's advice for me today...
Maybe do something you enjoy/love like writing? When I do something I enjoy it helps my mood. Maybe you should get that stuff ready to send to a publisher? WHATEVER you do, do not worry about the house or getting it cleaned up!!!I know, he's pretty much...AMAZING. And so, it's 12:05 and I still haven't got my shower because I have been getting things printed up to send my ideas off to publishers and editors. It's felt good. Mostly. It's kinda scary too...taking the risk...facing rejection. And yet, I know I have to try. Writing makes me feel alive. I love sharing my ideas and thoughts with others. So, we'll see.
A few other things that have made me smile lately. (If I focus on the positive, on the gifts God has given me in my life...then that leaves less room for whatever this 'funk' is, right?!)
- Sarah laying in the hammock with me yesterday after school reading her book (Wayside School) and saying to me "Ahh, this is the life." Yes, yes, it is.
- That I am healthy enough to run a 5K with Morgan tonight. And that her and I are both looking forward to it.
- Flowers my mom & dad sent us brightening up my kitchen
- Daisies growing in unexpected places in my yard.
- Day after day of simply perfect weather!
- The baby birds in Sarah's window. Although, I fear some larger bird came and ate them...only 6 days old and they vanished! :( Mom & Dad Robin seemed to be 'upset' - checking nest. But I did enjoy the miracle of it upclose while I could. Here are a couple of pictures.
The girls named them Squirmy and Fernando. Also, one lil bird hatched and disappeared, & one lil birdie never hatched. :( |
So cute sleeping together with mama standing guard. I really was this close to her, with just the screen between us. AMAZING. |
