My word for the day is Overwhelmed...
But that's just how I'm feeling this morning. Later today I will be fine. I haven't been posting regularly for several weeks, except for this Meme. There is just too much Other stuff going on.
- I'm taking a writing class - time consuming as I actually have to THINK. LOL
- I have a full-time job - well, it's not out of my house and I don't get paid for it, but it has its own rewards - homeschooling six of my seven children, though one is only part-time
- I've joined a small-group of Other like-minded writers and we're sharing our work.
- Every evening, M-Thursday I'm Out of my house for various activities.
- I'm in mid-editing stage on a book, and it's frustrating me because I want it to be wonderful, but I also want it to be done.
- I'm trying to plan to go to the ACFW Conference in September. I have to register, but before I can do that I have to decide who I want to see and sometimes it's hard to make that decision. I also have to find the best airline rates I can because driving to Dallas from N. Alabama is not doable (well, I could, but I would be exhausted by the time I got back).
- It's Spring and I want to be outside.
- It's Spring and I want to be OUTSIDE - well, not today because it's raining, but you know what I mean.
- Oh, I also have a stack of books I promised to read and more coming, I think.
- I can't forget all the other things a mom/wife is expected to perform - laundry, dinner, blah...blah...blah.
Okay, so there's my whine for the day. When I look at it up close and personal like this, I know I can do it, just ONE step at a time.
Please forgive me and know that I am thankful that 1) I have a family to spend my time on and with, 2) that I have the ability to write a good story (if I do say so myself) and complete it, 3) that I have a blog where I can post my whines and winnings, 4) God loves me even when I Overwhelm myself, and 5) that you've bothered to read all the way through this post. :)
May God rain showers of blessings upon you today,
Ginger
