Reprieve
I feel like things have been running at breakneck speed here for the last few weeks. And, in scoping out things in my Day-Timer for the next month this morning, I realized that it doesn't look like it is going to be slowing down anytime soon. While I usually prefer a slower pace, I'm grateful for many opportunities to practice efficiency and to keep active and productive since I'm hoping the next 14 weeks fly by for me. :)Judging from reading my journal from Kathrynne's pregnancy, about this time in my pregnancy last time around is when time started to seemingly stand still. Though I admit that once I hit 20 weeks this pregnancy, things have seemed to slow down a bit (maybe that's because we were no longer in the middle of moving!), life has definitely kept up a quite a quick pace. And I'm happy for that. I've not had much time to sit and dwell on the backaches, or the heartburn, or the tiredness... there's too much else to do!
However, I am thankful for a little weekend getaway this afternoon, evening, and tomorrow to attend a family issues conference. A short break will be wonderful, especially considering I found a nice place to stay tonight for $30/night!
I'll be "back in the saddle" Monday morning and maybe, just maybe, I'll have more of a chance next week to blog and share the myriad of things spinning around in this overactive brain of mine. In the mean time, enjoy your weekend, and take some time to love on your family - if you have one (If you don't have a family, go "adopt" a family to love!), breathe in the wonderful fresh Spring air, and count your blessings!
