Summer

Isn't summer supposed to be relaxing, refreshing? I'm frantic trying to get the usual mundane stuff around the house done, and feeling guilty meanwhile for not having exciting activities for the kids... Time for myself? HAH! But that's not even what I mean, really; childhood is so short. I want the kids to have the summer-y memories I have. I don't know how to do all of it. This year we have 108 days of summer vacation. I would so love for the kids to remember this particular summer as one of 108 special days.

Tomorrow we're picking berries. And we'll have fun. I know it. I just need to get my attitude straightened out.

About MamaMonkey

I'm making a not-quite-graceful transition from single, working mom of 2 into a SAHM of 3. It's been challenging to change my mindset from having to be "on" at all times to having the luxury of not having to do it all. Surprisingly difficult for me. I frequently find myself feeling a little... directionless, I guess. I've taken to reading blogs as I nurse the baby. I used to journal. I miss it. Maybe my own blog might assuage some of this. Maybe not. I guess I'll see.

If anyone actually stops by to read this, hello and thanks!

Will I truly be joining the blogging community as a contributer? We'll see...
