Getting Busy

It’s thunder storming outside and there is Friends on the TV… a perfect ending to a productive day.

Well…it was mostly productive, however I have a little something I need to admit.

Don’t judge me!

Today I bought cleaner from a door to door salesman…there, I said it...I can hear your long sigh of disapproval from here!!!

I feel like I got dooped but the guy was just so nice and he showed me all of the great things it could do and it was ONLY 40 bucks…Now I can hear your chuckle of relief that it wasn’t you.  Hey, it went to a good cause, he told me it was going to support inner city youth.

I’m a sucker!

Anyway, let us not allow that to overshadow all the great things that I did today.  I worked out details for my coaching endeavor at NWC and did a little work with that.  I took a great nap.  I read my favorite part of Anna Karenina. Weeded and Pruned my front yard.  Grilled a great supper and did some school work.  Ahhhh….the feeling of accomplishment! :)

The reason I’m blogging now is really because I feel like I need to take some time to do this while I still have the time.  One of the things I accomplished today was writing in a bunch of dates in my planner.  It filled up quite quickly!!!

I think I decided that I like being busy.  Some people may be able to relate, some not so much.  I think it all started in high school.  I was one of those people who was involved in everything…all at once!  College didn’t slow down and being a teacher and coach has fit into that lifestyle nicely.

This summer has been exactly the opposite of that.  I’ve had time to do what I want, read what I want, make my own schedule and drop everything to go visit friends.  It’s been great…and really weird.    Living like that is something I think everyone should experience and it really has been really fun.  But I’m ready to get back to the life of schedules, middle schoolers and grown-up mail.

I’ll try to post some updates on my new adventures regardless of my rapidly filling schedule.  :)
