Most days I feel like I have no idea what I’m doing. In fact so much so that it doesn’t even phase me anymore when The Beard shakes his head and says “It’s a good thing you’re pretty.” I know exactly what he’s getting at. I’m a hot mess but he loves me anyway!
This morning, I feel like this:
Ever feel like that? I have so many things I want to do but just can’t ever seem to get them all to fit into a perfect little package with a cute little bow around it. My reality doesn’t include the words perfect or cute!
I get cranky because I feel like I spend so much time in my life on things that are not what’s most important to me. I’m fully aware of where I’d rather my energies be spent and certainly know where my my head is the majority of the time, but I have yet to figure out how to flip the script. So I just keep trudging along. Sometimes it feels like I’m treading water for hours upon hours. Good thing I’m in better shape these days, huh? Lol.
Anyway, this is really just a post of morning rambles. Have you guessed yet that my morning didn’t go as I had hoped? Little Man was up at 4:15 and did not want to go back to sleep. The Beard was up early fixing work problems and trying to make it to another weekly commitment on time. I had hoped to get a good run in and get to school in time to catch up on some grading. BUT even once I got the babe back to sleep I then realized I had a work meeting. So, no run, got to the meeting a little late and there went the catch up time as well. Yep and now I’m doing what I always do, FYI. Putting off stuff that I should be doing because my head and heart just aren’t into it.
Grrr….one day I’ll figure it out, right? I sure hope so. Until then I just keep reminding myself of this…
…and if God’s ok with that, I guess I should be to.
