So, I'm sitting here trying to write something for all of my devoted readers, but there's just nothing exciting to say. My life right now is pretty much the same everyday- taking care of the 5 kiddos and the hubby. There's some funny moments along the way, but by the time comes that I can actually sit down and write about it, I've already forgotten what the funny was. I'm afraid I'm pretty boring these days. But, this is where I am. Don't really like being boring. But, I'm trying to do a good job of being a mother and a wife. Both of which I feel like I accomplish with mediocrity. I'm not complaining, but I'm just so stretched out in my resources (mental, physical, emotional, relational). I just don't think I can accomplish everything with excellence. Let's face it, I not a super mom. Man, I do know of several, and I just don't know how they do it. I wish I did a better job. I have this perpetual calendar that I read everyday with quotes from mostly Christian woman and there are a few quotes from some other popular women, celebrities. This calendar really encourages me, most of the time. Well the quote I read today was this:
"Women of adventure have conquered their fates and know how to live exciting fulfulling lives right where they are. they have learned to reinvent themselves and find creative ways to enjoy the world and their place in it. They know how to take mini-vacations, stop and smell the roses, and live fully in the moment." by Barbara Jenkins
I just love this quote and wish I were like that. It is depressing to me that I am not. I always thought of my self as adventurous. The most adventure I've had lately is, well, I just don't have adventure anymore and it just makes me sad because that's a part of me that seems to be gone and I miss that part of me. I didn't mean to make this a rambling, depressing post. But, that is what is on my mind right now. Please keep reading in the future, I know my posts won't all be as depressing as this one. Thanks for reading.
