Falling into a rut.

Hello once again,
I keep noticing that I am getting so busy I forget I even have a blog. With all that is going on in my crazy life, I can't seem to slow down. The funny thing about me being busy is that it makes me feel stuck in a rut that I can't get out of. I always feel so mundane and board when in reality my life is a chock-full calendar and busy schedule. I especially feel this way when a big change is coming up in my life. I am sure that my family and friends are tired of my heavy sighs and longing to be somewhere else, doing anything than what I am doing now. I think that part of my problem is that I find joy in simplicity. I like rainy days, fresh brewed coffee, fuzzy socks, cozy blankets and sleeping in late etc...etc...etc... Because of my recently fast paced life, I haven't really been able to enjoy these things. The lack of simple pleasures has made me irritable and discontent, and I apologize to anyone that has felt the repercussions of this. There was a thunderstorm last night, I couldn't remember  the last time I had been so ecstatic over something so little. The realization of this made me remember how blessed I am. A few good cries, lots of coffee, and a some heart to heart chats made me feel a little better. During this Lenten season I have decided to let God take control, to help break me free from this stuck, monotonous feeling. I am asking for all of your prayers and good wishes on my Lenten journey.

Whistle while you work,
