my week
Is it just me, or is the start of summer feeling quite busy? Maybe it’s looking forward and realizing all of the events and dates that are all spoken for. But even so, I feel that lately when I talk to people they are busy and more busy – running around, doing things outside…I suppose it’s the season. Michigan winters are cold, so once it warms up there’s tons of stuff to do. I really want to get my bike out and actually ride it this year! I should do that before it becomes one of those things that was a nice idea. I have a lot of nice ideas, but I rarely do them all. I am trying to be more disciplined with my time, cutting out general tv watching and trying to reign in those days where I say I have a lot to do, but can’t really tell you what I got done. Anyone feel me on this?! I hate that feeling, so I’m going to go back and look at my process and try once again to start Getting Things Done! I know it will work, it must! I cannot give up. Oh, I saw this awesome article on wiki how about making a dress out of an old bedsheet – looks awesome, but I don’t think I can make time for this project right now, that one goes on the someday/maybe list.
Are they still debating if sugar makes children hyper? I know it makes their teeth rot. It made mine feel fuzzy yesterday, yuck! I don’t normally eat a ton of sugar, but every once in a while you have to live on the edge right?! Lately I’ve been looking into doctors and health insurance stuff, so health has been on my mind. Oh, and it’s swimsuit season, and everyone’s comparing tans and concerned about watching their figure. I think it’s important, and yes I definitely want to be healthy. But at the same time, I want to have fun. Many things in life are about balance. I suppose I should watch my sugar intake…Zoe and I hung out at the mall yesterday, we played with puppies at the pet store, looked at clothes and accessories and bags, and visited the candy store. It was so fun, she is a delight to hang out with and so smart, I am positive that it’s a reflection of being in a wonderful family! At the candy store we piled a little of this and a little of that into some goodie bags and headed on our way…a few minutes later we were ordering at dairy queen. Yes, possibly we had a bit too much sugar for one afternoon, but we did have fun, and it was a beautiful day that needed something sweet. I am sure I spoiled her dinner, and I can just see all the moms shaking their head at me in disapproval. Sorry, Netta!
Speaking of sweet things, I have privileged to spend some time with a very lovely tiny girl and her mommy this week. Brooke and Steve had their baby girl, Alethia Hope, and she is so sweet. I have been learning all kinds of things about babies and mommies, very enlightening!
Mohan and I are coming up on one year, this July 4th! I don’t know what exactly we’ll do to celebrate, but one thing I’ve been doing already is reflecting and wondering how a whole year goes by so quickly! Someone asked me the other day if it was worth it, and I practically fell out of my seat, I don’t usually get animated… but this one called for it. Of course it’s worth it!! And more than just being married to the most wonderful man, being in the will of God with him is the best feeling ever. It’s been a great year, while it’s fun to look back, it’s even more fun to look ahead! I would recommend marriage to anyone. Of course, don’t get ahead of God, and also – let him pick the guy. It works much better this way! Ok, perhaps more on this subject later. Maybe you can share what you did to celebrate your first, or any anniversary?
I’ve got things to do and little time to do them! Have a great week, and take advantage of the beautiful weather!
