The countdown has begun and soon school will be over and Summertime will be upon us! I can't wait. I was so optimistic at the beginning of the year, but then things changed. Now we are just getting through.
I have the two year itch. Feel like we should be moving. In the past 14 years we have moved 7 times. So to be staying put seems a bit unsettling. It doesn't help that things at school are winding down and the dynamics of certain friendships are dwindling. I seem to find myself in these situations where everything is going fine with friends and then suddenly something changes and it just becomes awkward and I am not quite sure why. I guess it falls under the friends for a season category?
I like getting to know people. Some I hit it off with, others not so much, but that's okay. Some people I get to know a little to well. I see how they treat others and then when I get that treatment I kick myself. It makes things clear, and I then realize that I have been too open with my life and begin to feel like a fool. So, a good lesson in privacy. New friendships form out of the blue and life goes on.
My goal is to simplify. Simplify life. Enjoy the little things, celebrate the small stuff, and end each day knowing that time was used well. I look forward to spending time with the girls this summer. Building a stronger relationship with them. Today is so beautiful outside and I couldn't be happier sitting outside, loving the soft breeze, and relaxing with the girls. Now if only someone would come over here and cook dinner. THAT would make the day perfect.
