Overcome with Laziness

Clouds make me lazy. It must be the clouds! When the sun is shining, I DO things. I exercise, I work at my office, I cook and clean.

The sun was shining on Saturday, and we took ourselves over to the "Stomp Out Bullying" event at the Middle School.



We walked a few miles, talked, ate hamburgers and hot dogs, played kick ball and dunked the principal in the dunk tank.



But that was then...when there were no lazy-clouds. See that blue sky??

Today, the lazy-clouds are forcing me to read about bacon-wrapped figs, Reese's baby bump and the right amount of sparkle for day. Just to name a few. I really don't want to be lounging in my bed, in my pajamas, surrounded by dirty laundry while reading about Tuscany and searching for recipes for almond biscotti.

I really want to be exercising, and paying bills, and washing down the screened porch...but these darn clouds....

If the sun doesn't shine tomorrow, you may need to do an intervention over here. If you can get through the mess.

Now, back to meringue mushrooms and You Tube.

The Life of My Mind

This is what is on my mind...

1. Rainbow cake
2. James (as in the Bible) -- specifically chapter 5: 1-6 -- and how I can study it, prepare a lesson and present it in a way that is pleasing to God
3. Prom. No. AFTER the prom.
4. I forgot the oranges tonight for the soccer team.
5. Dinner...I only have rainbow cake and it is for (see #6)
6. Michael's birthday party
7. The sad fact that I don't stop and smell the roses. Or blog.
8. Sleep.
9. Sweet potato fries. I need them.
10. Mosquitos - or maybe I should say, bug spray.

Some days are like this.


Feeling a little out of balance...
