On your mark....



Today has been a long day, involving no hot water and then no water at all, ecards with rodents in them, lots of cooking to prepare for this week, which despite it's shorter length will still be a doozy, as  Cara is home for a few days and then my mom faces cataract surgery on Thursday,  A lot of running back and forth and she will be spending at least one night here...maybe more.  Add to that a misbehaving puppy and a few cats that think they own the place...oh and of course that teenage boy that drives me crazy....I am exhausted at the mere thought of it all.  But I know it will all be fine and it will all happen as it is supposed to...and I will go along for the ride with a smile on my face, making the best of it, enjoying it (?) and passing out in a coma each night.  So good to have two children watching TV tonight...and missing the one who isn't here.  I always feel that all is right with the world when I have all of my kids under one roof.  But I know they are all safe and happy.

Is there any moral of the story to tie in all of these disjointed thoughts?  Just that life gets crazy....life happens and you can't let it get to you.  I will arise tomorrow and walk forward into the week (Or do I feel like a gun will fire and I will start the race of this week?) and be ready to take what it offers...and hopefully.....make the best of it.
