Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks....

I've felt really busy this year!  I mean, every day, every hour, every minute.  It is the basic busy like making Kirk lunch at 4:45 every morning, doing scripture study, emails, dishes, getting kids off to school and by then it's 8:00.  My days are filled with home chores, pre-school time, baking (I started making whole wheat bread every other day and it's awesome!!) class work, volunteering at school, dinner plans.  By 2:30 it's time to pick up Logan, go to a basketball game, or scouts, or a meeting, or some kind of activity.  You would think I could fit it in.  I try really hard, but on Monday night at about 10:30pm I found myself at Winco doing our grocery shopping!  Really?  I'm not always on top of things, and I just couldn't fit anything in.  I like to be busy though, if I'm not I tend to get depressed.  Especially these last winter months where I want to be outside working in the garden, but it's a mud pit right now!  I don't even know the point of this blog post!  I guess I just wanted to check in and tell you I'm pretty busy.  A lot of running around.  The older the kids are the worse it is.  There's nothing to complain about though, I'm really good!  I just need a little relaxation time.  Maybe Kirk will whisk me away in a few weeks.  A pre-anniversary get away or something.  On second thought, I think I will whisk myself away and just spend some time scrapbooking and watching movies...anyone want to come?  Beth

I'm telling you, those couple of quiet hours I got on Wednesday evening did wonders for me! That was the first real break I had gotten in a very, very long time and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
