Man it has been a busy busy few weeks and not showing signs of slowing down any time soon. My life will get saner in September. I've sealed the deal on a job, back to construction, and I can not wait!!!! But I have to lol! At least I won't be throwing myself back into the worst heat of the summer. Anyway, my business is picking up, entertaining guests, social activities have picked up dramatically, work has picked up with my regular 9-5 job, garden goodies are pouring in, and upkeep has gotten to be a bigger chore fighting aphids and squash bugs....whew...I need a vacation! Speaking of, my guy is planning us a getaway soon so I will have one before I go stark raving mad maybe. Life is whizzing at warp speed right now and I'm just trying to hold on to the merry go round so I don't go flying off face first. I finally went to my first NASCAR race...took my brother and my niece last weekend...seems like it was last month..anyway, we had a good time and did some sight seeing along the way at a winery where I got a nice bottle of local wine I have yet to pop the cork on because I can't handle life with a buzz right now. My stress level is still through the roof, but I'm managing it fairly well kinda sorta not really but that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Anyway, that's where I've been...neck deep in a million projects and problems and blessings and everything in between. Thanks to those of you who've sent me messages along the way, I miss y'all too!!! Maybe...MAYBE prayerfully hopefully possibly God will see fit to help me with some of these loose ends flying in the wind that I can't seem to latch onto to tie up and I'll get a break sometime soon. But for now, I'm riding the tsunami just trying to stay on my board and avoid any debris!! I'm wobbly but I haven't fell yet=BIGGEST BLESSING...and honestly I'm grateful for the action. Y'all know if you've followed my journal that my life is either mountain or valley....I'm not even sure which I'm on at the moment because I haven't really had time or the inclination to look up from where I am to assess my location...I rather think maybe it's a mixture of both lol...so anyway before I ramble any more than I already have...welcome to my chaos and I'll catch up with everyone when I can! Meanwhile, hug someone, crack a joke, but someone coffee, mow someone's yard, something, anything, everything, to make someone smile because smiles make the world a sweeter place to live!
