Project 17 weeks

Today I sat quietly. I listened to a house full of quiet. I listened to my heart and I began making a list. As I was making a list of accomplishments I drew a line down the paper and made a new list of wants and desires. I then got up and walked to my fridge and counted the weeks until
My 35 th birthday. 17 weeks. In 17 weeks I will become a 35 year old single mother of two sons. This of course was never my plan but it is the hand I was dealt such is life.
I want to rewrite my story. Change some things that happened, right some wrongs, take back some things and I also want to say I told you so. Life however does not work this way. Once it's said it's said. Once it's done it's done.

I can however live the next 17 weeks striving, prepping , building for the next 35 years and that's exactly what project 17 weeks is about. I'm rewriting my story. I'm changing my life there may or may not be a happy ending and that's life too.

Observations from the play structure

It's New Year's Day. We are rested and anxious. Had to get out and stretch our limbs. I'm spending some time watching the littles play tag. And I'm thinking about a lot of non important junk.

Some things I am noticing this afternoon.
Children make friends quickly.
No one wants to be IT.
There never seems to be an off switch when it comes to kids. They go and go and go.
Kin sticks to kin. They may branch out a little bit, but they all know their safe person, their personal base if you will.
Noise and giggles drown out the most ordinary day.

End of the year

Good bye 2012 you were a beautiful a d blessed year. You had ups and you came with downs. A year of much more sunshine and giggles than tears and frowns. In everything that happened this year I can say honestly I was inspired to be who I am. To grow, reach for the the sun and to never let my moon and my stars down. I'm filled with luv and inspired for more. Wherever and when ever I may find it.
















Happy New Years to you!
