I haven’t posted in over a week. I’m feeling like a bad blogger. It hasn’t meant that a lot hasn’t been going on. Quite the contrary.
Among the big highlights of last week are me having a gall bladder attack on Wednesday and our vacation to Branson getting canceled because of John’s work. Both major bummers.
Now we are over last week and on to this week. I took a week off of baby-sitting children other than my own. JJ starts Jumpstart Kindergarten which is a 4-week program Webster schools does for kids who have never been to preschool. Henry and George are going to our baby sitter’s Kid Camp that she is putting on every morning this week. If you do the math, I have NO kids every morning this week.
This is when I freak out a bit. What am I going to do? Should I start a to-do list? Start planning every minute of this 3 hours in the morning? Or not do anything – which I am really uncomfortable with doing.
So I’m referring back to an older post for ideas of how I spend my free Friday mornings during the school year. My desire is to prayerful about this time and spend it doing only things that I feel are life-giving to me. So I’m going to resist the urge to clean out any closet or tackle anything big, but really try to just be and rest.
To help me post more regularly, I am also going to post what I did each morning. Hopefully, this will make me more accountable and won’t get any moms who are currently in the trenches too jealous.
I started the week off right and had my friend Maddie, also the best massage therapist EVER, come over and give me a massage.
