I'm challenging myself this week… I'm trying to capture the moments throughout my days (thursday to thursday) for a week. I want to create a scrapbook of these moments to capture what life is like right now… things change so quickly… our kids grow, develop new skills, we change, life goes on.
I want to be able to remember what life is like for me at 40 and to look back on it when I'm 60 and remember.
So, everyone thinks I'm nuts. I am taking pictures of everything and anything. It's forcing me to slow down and to consider what is important to me right now… what reflects my life right now… and how I REALLY spend my days. It's pretty cool.
So, here's Today:
Up early – can't sleep because Rob is cleaning the kitchen (isn't that sweet?) and banging pots and pans around. But, can't complain because I walk downstairs to find a spotless kitchen, running dishwasher, folded clothes and, the best of all, hot water for my tea. Sigh. Life is good.
Make MB's lunch – leftover pizza, chips, pudding, and water.
Fix the girls' tea and find some clean school uniforms in the dryer. (warm and cozy)
Wake the girls and head into my room to dress.
Fix breakfast for the girls – Lucky Charms today. Breakfast of champions.
Drive the rental car to school – hope mine is ready today…
Stop by and pick up a biscuit for breakfast. YUM. Ham and cheese, all hot and gooey.
Back at home…. checking email, updating FB (computer crack for me) and getting my workday started.
And so it goes… Stay tuned for more updates as the week goes on. And, join me! See what your life is all about.
