Big, deep breath.

When I took a yoga class several years ago, it was pointed out that most of us don't breathe deeply enough in our daily lives. That's fairly obvious in my case! What a week. I don't know why some weeks, some months, nothing really significant happens in the well of emotions that is me... and then all of a sudden, in one or 2 days I have a bucket full. But instead of letting myself remain overwhelmed, I'm just going to take life one day at a time. This is the state of things, this is "where I'm at." I'm trying to just be at peace with the inner struggle, for now. In..... Out..... (oh, I have to do it again?) In...... Out.

It's Friday. One Week 'Til Vacation. Take That, emotions!

Yesterday I thought it'd be fun to see what AJ's reaction to crayons would be. I knew in my heart what it'd be, but I thought, hey, perhaps he's a creative genius and these talents need to be exercised earlier than I think. (I was also hankering to TEACH him something -- to do something more than face my computer screen while he, behind me, played all by himself. Sob. Wait a second....... IN......OUT.)

At any rate, he reacted exactly as I knew he would, which was to attempt to eat the crayons. I did my best to show him the art of scribbling. "Look, honey!! I'm making COLORS! Isn't that neat?" I suppose we'll have to wait another few weeks or months, and try again. I bring this up only to introduce today's time-wasting Blogthing:

Funny, I was just thinking about getting a tan. Happy weekend, cyber-pals. Happy weekend, Self.
