My melancholy moments are stored mostly here in my blog,
I try not to carry it with me for others to see...
or be dragged down with.
In the home, mostly there is no time for it,
the kids have their many temperamental moments.
Lately, for a while now, things have piled up I suppose, that's why. It's more like a heavy fog than a depression that weighs down on my memory, there are things that need to be done and things that need to be corrected yet cannot be controlled.
Let's try making a list, perhaps it 'll become clearer to know what I can change and what I can't, perhaps some things can get moving and out of the way.
Be Happy, Be Strong, Live Life. I write for the love of it; helps me think clearer and somehow it also gives me strength. it's been healing, it's been a journey; it's about me, being a mom, persons who mean much to me, memories, discoveries, where life has taken me and where I hope it will head. I am moving forward, I'm happier today (1 May 2012)

Auto mode ...
Took a break, went camping with the kids but it wasn't as relaxing as I thought it would be. It was good exercise, my bones were aching from the aftermath but...
I want change. I keep thinking of change, a more lasting memory, a more fulfilling experience ?.
To do things slowly, more deliberately, to think more of the doing than the getting done.
My head is full of things to do, the list never ends.
I go through each day almost robotically.
Nagging the kids seems automatic, even if it's for different antics.
Going through the motions, eating, showering, cleaning, fixing ...
I want to slow it down, change the pace,
to feel more in the here and now.
It's probably just a phase ...my last post on this was in 9/2009 routines-living-in-auto-mode.

Two at a time...
I got two lovely awards from Betty of Cut and Dry, thank you Betty they do certainly cheer up one's day and adds to the to-do list....:)
The "sunshine award" ... well just pass it on to 12 of your favourite bloggers...
The other award is the 'Versatile Blogger', and while I got this from Betty first, I was also presented with it again from the Wanderer a day later. Thank you.
You have to do some 'soul searching' for this one ..
Go ahead pick one or both (make your day..) and pass em on......
