Real Life Adventures

Every day (okay, maybe not every day) I think about this little blog space of mine. I think about how I don’t write here often enough even though I have approximately 428 posts rolling around in my head at any given time.

Today I talked to my friend Amanda and we ruminated on the fact that while we both have plenty to write, we just don’t. And it makes us sad and a little bummed that we’re not writing those wonderful things so one day we can look back and realize we had a ridiculous amount of time on our hands. Or not.

So we made a pact, without the blood, that we would write on our blogs this week. And then I remembered that Heather of the EO had this amazing thing called Just Write, and that’s exactly what I need to do. JUST WRITE.

This morning I woke up to the sound of rain on my metal roof. It was glorious because I love the sound of rain, but also because we need the rain so badly. I drifted off and woke again several times to the sound of rain. It was a nice way to start my day.

My children are incredibly smart. It’s exhausting.

I think one of the reasons I don’t write much here is that I don’t have as much time to read other blogs. And I feel guilty writing here because I always get a handful of comments from some of my best friends, and I realize I haven’t read their blogs in forever. Guilt. Maybe I should blog and turn off the comments? Nah. That wouldn’t be much fun. I guess if I’m going to blog, then I need to carve out time to read blogs. Do unto others…

I love my friends. I’m very fortunate to have more than a handful of the very best. I heard somewhere that most women have only 2 really good friends. You know, they kind of friends you would call to bail you out of jail. You know, if you ever got arrested. I’m happy to say that I have many more than 2 people I could call. Many more.

That’s all for now. Thanks so much for reading!

Linking up with Just Write from the Extraordinary Ordinary Heather. Love her.
