Happy Friday!

How is it that every time I say I am ready to start blogging again, it seems to be a year before the next entry.....

Life, that is how that happens.  I am on a crazy hamster wheel right now and a spare minute tends to get allotted to social media or a nap.  Could I carve out more time to blog? Maybe, probably, but I am not going to feel guilty about it.

What I do feel guilty about is how I keep saying I am going to get my life out of crazy mode and somehow stay in it.  That is why I have been doing some self discovery.  Who is Penny, what are her passions, what are her goals, and also what are her values? 

I often think I know the answer to these questions but then something happens and I realize that they are not as black and white as I originally thought.  There is almost always a back story to everything.  


Anyway.... this is how life looks right now.

Currently....

 Listening to Lucy's phone (a game or background on you tube) from the other room.  Also the continuously running air conditioner since the temp outside is currently "hotter than hell".

 Loving my day off and happy to have slept in and feel finally rested this week.  Between busyness and allergy meds I have felt exhausted EVERY DAY.

 Thinking about the fun weekend ahead with the big family birthday and K's wedding shower.  I am learning to love all of these things and quite stressing so much about them.  
Wanting to get completely caught up at home so that I can develop a good routine and be able to rest better in the evenings and on the weekends.

 Needing to let God have control and stop trying to figure out crazy things that I literally have zero control over.  Letting God show his love for me and let him do what only he is capable of.  He for sure doesn't need my menial input.  


Hope it is a happy Friday for everyone and have a wonderful weekend!

    Hey lady! Good to "see" you! I totally feel the same about blogging and life! We are empty nesters now and I don't know how we ever did all that we did when the kids were all home. Hope you figure out how to enjoy your evenings and weekends!

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

Winter Items I Can't Live Without

  If you have read my blog, like ever, you know winter and I have kind of a tolerate, bordering on really dislike, each other kind of relationship.  If I could have snow without ice and in 50 degree weather, life would be fine for those 4-5 months.  I don't really dislike snow.  But I can't handle being cold.  At All!!   Ok, Rant over, for today, maybe, until it is brought up again....   What can I not live without?   A Warm Coat...my favorite coat is my black puffer coat.  It was super cheap from Sam's eleven (yes, eleven) years ago.  It is the warmest coat ever and luckily has never went out of style.  The zipper is being a little iffy this year and I just might cry if I talk about it too long.  This coat washes and drys so well and does not look like it has been a winter staple for eleven years.  I also have a North Face that I love but if it is below 20, the black coat wins hands down, every time. ...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!!
