It really feels like like "every second counts" when I am trying to juggle putting the girls to sleep, dealing with hope popping out of bed and creeping next to me to just watch me type so that she doesn't have to go to bed, and me trying to type something coherent and well - hopefully meaningful!?
Time is just so damn prescious and "expensive" when you have little people around ALL the time.
Just got to kiss Hope goodnight again - I'll be back( hold that thought ,please!) O.k. Where was I?
No clue, lost all train of thought - Oh, I have been sooo desperate to blog and catch up! I have not been sick, in fact I feel really well - why am I so surprised? I have crammed in a movie - "The Jane Austen Bookclub" - very sweet, chick flick and such a treat to just sit and "blog" out of the real world for 2 hours. Great actors, cute story and I am hoping the Video Bar will work I am trying to download of a clip/trailer of a movie. So got to do more of the movie big screen theatre thing.
I admit the movie did make me want to read "Persuation" - so I grabbed it from the library, it's nice and thin - I just need to find those prescious seconds!!! Is it because I am celebrating my "Big" milestone birthday I feel so pressured to cram stuff in to my life?? What was I thinking before I had kids? I did not realise how much free time I had!
It's all Lance Armstrong's fault. He got me wanting his book about the enormity of seizing the moment. That got me to start a bookclub so I could get the book - and yup the rest is history.
I don't know if any of this is making sense - because Row is now waiting for me to finish up and watch a movie with him. Tomorrow I have the whole day with the laptop - who am I trying to kid. Maybe I need to wake up early before the rest of the household and seize the seconds.
Things that make me smile...
