Right now…

Right now I am…

… struggling with today’s post. I had something prepared, but I wasn’t happy with it, so I decided not to post that. But then it started to nag me that I needed to stick to my Monday – Wednesday – Friday schedule, so here I am, ignoring the breakfast dishes and trying to write something, before it’s too late too post (by rules that exist only in my mind).

… thinking the blog is always a bit of a struggle for me, but this time I’m rather determined to keep it going. I always miss it when I quit.

… feeling a bit groggy. We went out for diner yesterday to celebrate something. I was a good girl and didn’t order a smoothie or ice cream, but I did eat a lot of bread.

… wondering about the human mind and how it processes live happenings. Or is it just mine? I’m kinda weird, I know.
This thing we celebrated has been weighing on me way too long. In my mind it grew into something much bigger than it actually was. I guess it eventually turned into an obsession and I’ve spent nights lying awake because of it (not trying to be mysterious here, but it’s a very personal, complicated and long story that isn’t just my own, so I can’t really share it).
I expected that I would feel relieved, happy, free… now that it’s over. But it’s like my mind is confused. This big thing is gone and now what? Where do we go from here? I am happy, but still not convinced it’s all good (it is). And I can actually feel those obsessive thoughts in my head circling around and trying to find something to return to. So weird! I guess I need a bit of rest.Maybe a few nights of good sleep? That would be great!

… listening to the birds singing outside. I love them so much.

… looking at the trees outside our office window. I think the garden is calling me.

… promising myself some sewing time too

… hoping for a nice and peaceful weekend, with lots of sewing, gardening, knitting and reading. Oh, and sleeping!

…wishing you all a great weekend too

… going to do those dishes now… 😉

  1. Those things that absorb so much of our time often feel strange when they are passed don’t they. I hope you can find a way through it all and make peace or whatever you need to do. I hear you on blogging and wanting to do it, I can never quite find the time at the moment. I think I have not really worked out how to make it fit in and despite wanting to and wrestling with a not really wanting to either.

    1. Thank you.
      I find that a lot of people struggle with blogging these days. But I am very happy that blogs still exist, so I think I need to be one of the people that keep going…

  2. Prayers that you are resolving the issues that make sleep light. My husband has trouble sleeping and we are hoping his upcoming retirement will resolve that issue. But my snoring doesn’t help. LOL!

    1. Thanks! I hope your husband sleeps better soon too.
      Snoring is a whole other issue here too (t. is a noisy sleeper too), but when I’m not too stressed I can sleep through it
