Daily Diary – September 17 2010

Nothing like nature to inspire and awe.

This week felt like it went by too too fast. I have a bunch of items on my todo list but none of them are inspiring me all that much so I keep putting them off. But I feel guilty about it so I get nothing else done either. Great, eh? Happens sometimes.

Nathaniel’s been really obsessed with shoes lately. Puts them on, takes them off.

my sunshine.

And eats them, too.

After we picked up David, he decided to play with Nathaniel by putting legos behind his back, inside his clothes.

And then they laughed.

And laughed.

And then came the hugs.

Love that they love each other. Love love love it.

And then Daddy came home and there was much much rejoicing. And playing with a box of goodies he got. They both sat in the tiny box and laughed and then cried and started having tantrums. Which meant it was time to eat and sleep. And me, I’m going to ignore my todo list, and read tonight. And then cuddle with my love. And then read more.

Here’s to a good weekend.

Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful for my kids’ laughter.
2. I am grateful for the weekend. I will enjoy a little rest this weekend with no deliverables.
3. I am grateful for the pack of white cardstock I got. 100 sheets. You know I’ll be using them.

Three Things David’s Grateful For:
1. reading the IQ book at school (about a mouse who wanted to be a student)
2. getting to read the story about our class and apples at school
3. putting legos in nathaniel’s clothes and making him laugh

    Karen, you just hit the nail on the head for me! I’ve always been a self motivator, and am great at motivating others, but lately…. nothing. It’s like there’s TOO much to do, I’m overwhelmed and don’t know where to start AND I’M FEELING GUILT so I’m paralyzed. Thank you for letting me know that I’m not alone and helping that neuron connect in my brain.
    Time to get something done!

      Diane, i think the trick is just to start somewhere. anywhere. that’s what i am trying to do. cause when you accomplish one thing, it gives you the feeling of accomplishment that then helps you achieve more!
