I have grown really fond of the blogging world. It gives me a way to connect to so many fabulous people, to ramble freely about whatever I please and gives me somewhere to put these pictures I so like taking. The only problem is that there are too many amazing blogs and too little time. I need some sort of blog IV to get my fix, while still being able to grind the spelt, soak the beans, create a full and varied life with the kids and watch the Red Sox with Nicolas - they're back, in the playoffs, Manny sporting wilder hair and more attitude than ever, Poppi even more focused, and I am loving the possibilities...
This next blogging year, I intend to get better at juggling everything in my life, not just my favorite blogs. As for my marriage, I aim to convince Nicolas that he doesn't really look quite as great as he thinks in these sunglasses:
oh, and find a way to get him to have more fun and less work.

Congrats on a strong loving marriage and on raising strong loving children. Your blog is great and on my short list of what I check out when I'm making the rounds of the usual suspects. No doubt: a fully lived life takes huge juggling. I fight to not wake up feeling panicky that I won't spend my allotted time well. So much draws me in, to, up, around. Wonderful stuff that is simply here (oxygen, sunshine, blood circulation, as examples) and creatures who can be, are, and do great things. A solution to avoid drowning in the richness of possibilities is saying no, especially to anything that suggests toxicity. Yet reeling from a nasty person at the dinner table last evening, I am also grateful for the lesson I am learning from that encounter w toxicity. So I reframe my solution, and celebrate the good w some nasty stuff tossed into the mix, for color, for contrast, and as surrender to the universe that ultimately trumps my plans.
Congratulations on your Anniversary!
I recently started using a feed reader - since you have firefox now you can install the Sage feed reader too - it checks all the blogs I read (including this one!)and lets me know which were updated. 20+ blogs in a few seconds. . .
Congratulations! Also, thank you to Tamar Orvell for the timely (for me) remarks on avoiding toxicity.
It is wonderful and heartening to hear and read about marriage and relationship success. And I think he has a beatiful smile which may outweigh the sun glasses!
And I so get it about balance. I feel like I'm constantly on the edge of bursting.
