Typical?

12. Describe a typical day in your current life.

Well this only lasts 5 more days and then life changes again but curretnly this is what we got...

7:00 am Wake up
7:15 crawl out of bed
7:20 cup of tea and facebook
7:30 wake up whatever kids aren't awake yet
7:35 Welcome baby #1
8:00 Start making sure everyone is ready for school
8:26 School run
8:47 back home and wait for baby #2
9:00-3:25 babysitting stuff
3:25 waiting for one of the girls to get home so I can go pick Anna up from school
4:00 baby #1 goes home
5:00 Baby #2 goes home
6:00 supper
7:00 whatever the evening brings
9:00 start ending the day
10:00 bed

And yep that's about it! Of course no two days are exactly the same but that's pretty typical. Not a lot of excitement this time of year. I love June for that reason!

Can One Be Whole even in the Brokenness?

Quick ramble... blog post challenges just don't seem to work for me... I guess I'm better off going at my own speed and writing when the mood strikes. So I guess what I'm saying is this blog will likely never be a daily thing and that's alright ... I'll probably try another challenge at some point but I'll probably also fail at that one too ;)   So... brokenness. It's a sad word isn't? There isn't much about it that sounds hopeful or even a little bit happy. It brings to mind, shattered vases, destroyed relationship, heartache, sorrow, lament. It's a picture of 'things gone wrong.' It's a place none of us what to be in and yet... we all end up there eventually. Brokenness is just a part of my life right now. It has been for many weeks. I often feel that I am coming apart at the seams and that I just can't take one more thing but somehow that one more thing keeps on coming and I am still in one piece. And so it begs the qu...

Did this have to be the next One More Thing???

So my car died on Saturday... and not in a small, simple to fix way. Nope, not my beast. It is a super big problem with a price tag to match... heavy sigh. As upset as I am, I know there are far greater problems and I can work around this one for as long as it takes us to save up for the repair. If I believed yesterday that 'Beauty exists in everything,' I have to believe it today even though there are super crappy circumstances in our life. It kind of sucks when we have to practice what we preach or live out what we say we believe. When we are dealt a blow, we get to choose how we respond. Don't get me wrong, I am pretty upset and feeling really quite at a loss as to what we do next but I do know that I can choose to be overcome by it or I can choose to overcome it. I'll let you know which side wins 😉 Also my sabbatical from Facebook begins again today, mostly because I use it as an escape and that isn't always healthy for me. It was a valuable tool in being p...

For Mrs D

Grief has visited me once again. And for all the people I have lost in the last 4 years, this one hurts so differently, so deeply. I didn't know that grief could change my taste buds and make me so afraid to close my eyes. I didn't know you could wake up all ready in tears. This is different. This is the pain of loosing someone who isn't old, who isn't sick but who is your own age and who shares your everyday story, This is different some how. In many ways I am still in shock and survival mode. And so I will write because writing is sometimes the only way I can even begin to let go of the pain. I first met Rose when I was dating one of her cousins. I remember how bright and cheerful Rose was at every family gathering. I really wanted to get to know her but back then my world pretty much revolved around 'the boy.' Fast forward quite a few years... Bobby and I have married, had our beautiful girls and settled  our oldest, AnnaRose into school life at Hillcrest...
