Well, despite the fact that summer break is half over, our swimming pool is finally open, and it's been hot and humid, I still feel as if our summer hasn't really begun. Crazy. And busy. That's how the past couple of months have been. Most of it has been planned, and almost all of it has been good, but I'm longing for a little bit of down time. Looking at our calendar for the next couple of months, I don't think that's going to happen any time soon. And that's ok. It's just the season I'm in right now. Busy, instead of summer.
I've spent pretty much all of my time since school let out either packing, traveling, unpacking, or preparing to travel again, and non-stop busy-ness is just not something I enjoy, so I've been feeling a little stressed, out of sorts, cranky. And, truth be told, I've also been feeling a little disappointed. This isn't quite how I expected my summer to be, and that grieves me.
I've been feeling this way, and early last week, just back from another trip, still in the midst of unpacking and laundry and catch-up, I came across this:
