Train of Thoughts...a somber Sunday afternoon!

 

 

Its Sunday and I already wish it was Friday! Weekends seem to skim by me like a gust of wind.  The week seems to always be busy between work and the kids I don't seem to have time for me.  My husband would probably disagree only because yesterday I was so tired I didn't do a thing everyone left the house early. Hubby went to work, my daughter went for a dress fitting that I thought would be a few hours but turned into a full day, hubby got out early and went to play music but forgot to mention it so I was alone all day enjoying my son.  My mind had planned on doing laundry, maybe get some food shopping done but what my mind wanted and what my body desired were two different things so I landed up doing NOTHING but seriously...I work Monday thru just like everyone else a clock I don't ever seem to punch out from.  Its quite amazing how us mother's and women in general we never get to see the light at the end of the tunnel.  At times I feel like an octupus with many hands handling everything that comes in my direction.  Don't get me wrong I HANDLE it, enjoy it and honestly don't think I can function without it yet there are times when I utter in my head that ol' commercial phrase "Calgon take me away".   I imagine a deep blue sea in front of me a bed of warm sand under my feet and a palm tree just above me giving me shade.  How's that for relaxation? Now if only I could take shade from my thoughts my concerns and worries that would be totally awesome!  Not only does my body need rest and relaxation but my mind needs peaceful quiet.  Concerns overwhelm me about bills, my children, my job, my relationship with my husband, friends that I miss and it goes on and on.   I can be as I am now multi-tasking washing clothes for the week, cooking dinner , making my son a bottle and writing on my blog and yet if only for a moment my mind wanders on other thoughts like people whom have passed on and I miss a great deal to friends I miss and wish I could see.  It is a long list a never ending train-of-thoughts if you will.  But life surely goes on and I must go on with it. 

What are you doing this Sunday afternoon?

New home new look!

Well new home new look...I decided that today I was not going to procrastinate any longer on importing my blogs from Vox.com to Typepad.com.  I must admit though it had been a while since I had posted any blogs on Vox I really enjoyed using that site.  I was sad when I received the email advising its members of the shutdown.  I wonder what caused the shutdown? All I can say is that I am glad they allowed us to transfer our blogs over and that we are able to write generously here.  Though I have lost many of my readers and contacts I hope I can reach them again.  I look forward to continuing what I started in Vox and be part of a new community of friends, blogger and writers.  I welcome old friends and followers as well as the new ones.
