Friday's Flowers ~ No. 21


My idea of superwoman is someone who scrubs her own floors.

Remember that one little word,
Balance?

I have to say,
I feel more balanced than I have all year.

The Farmboy thinks I'm a domestic goddess right now,
and I can dig that.

I've been consecutively feeding my family good, healthy home cooked meals,
I've been keeping the house managing in check,
and I've been creating.

The one thing I haven't managed to get caught up on is blog reading.
Please, please forgive me if I haven't been by in awhile!
Don't take it personally,
I still love you all and still love reading your blogs!

I have finally figured out that part of balancing,
is being okay with setting something on the back burner...
at least as long as that something gets rotated out periodically.

So my goal for September is to get blog reading off the back burner
and get/keep caught up.
I think I have a good chance,
now that the new school year is off to a good start.

Hope to see you real soon!

oohh I know what you mean, I get far more done when no reading blogs but love all the inspiration from here so find it hard to give up :-) Hope you get some 'me time' into the balance soon.

Balance is a great one, Alisa. We so easily can get out of balance. Like RIGHT NOW!!! Thanks, Alysa!
Hugs,

Balance. Sigh. Moderation. Ahhhh. It really is the quest of life.

I was so excited to see you in Somerset Life. I finally got around to looking throught it last night when I saw you in it. You are famous and I know you and everything. Cool.

I love it!!!!

I know just what you mean Alisa! I spent the first back to school day in a state of collapse in my messy house, it took me a while to find my balance again!
