This picture pretty much sums up how I feel about life after my blogging frenzy last week. Sure, I like the increase in sleep and productivity I've experienced since I gave up my daily blogging marathons, but here's the problem. Whenever something happens like the 2yo blackening my brand new laptop's screen and touch pad with an archival marker, I
no longer have my blogging crutch to get my through. Last week, I would have snapped a pic with my IPhone while silently repeating, "This will be funny. This will be funny" to keep myself from screaming and crying. Without the "Week in My Life" blog, life really hasn't been very funny at all.
This second shot is of my daughter "ice skating." Yep, this was the extent of it. This was a homeschool field trip in our study of friction. Nope, there's not a lot of friction out there unless you are my friend's poor little boy who split his head open in his first ten minutes on the ice (He got five stitches and returned in time for everyone to leave). There was no friction unless you count the kids who were angry at their mother for not bringing long socks and gloves. Maybe I forgot because I canNOT ice skate. I tried once when I was little and I felt like my feet were going to snap off at the ankles.
So maybe I will snap pictures and will tell myself that I'm going to blog these fiascos even if I don't. It's cheap therapy.
I was the same way on ice skates. No support whatsoever! If God had intended for me to skate He would have created me with blades instead of dry skin.
ice skating is so hard!! and it’s cold!
loved your week in a life, what a time.
i’m tagging you too, just in case you have time (haha) 🙂
It really does help to have the thought in your mind…hey I can blog about this what a hoot. I have seen my dh do this many times and what could have been a blow up becomes a really funny story. I guess that is kinda what God would have us do everyday as we thank and rejoice in him for ALL things. Thanks for the realness of you life that you share with us and the reminder of how we can change depending on how we look at it.
I just loved your daily blogging last week. it’s too bad you can’t do that all the time. I do like the idea of cheap therapy! no photos of the laptop????
Oh that face is ‘priceless’~ just love it~!! Love the iceskating pic too, she looks like she is wondering if her ankles might snap too!:) lol:D Tara
