My first TWO piggie tails!!
but nothing comes. (Where do you guys get this stuff???) My
head is filled with spiderwebs. I search the homeschoolblog
community for inspiration and end up closing the computer in
desperation. What happened to all that was once swirling around
in my head??
It's frustrating at best. I've changed templates three times hoping it would inspire me. NOTHING.
I look back on my day for something witty. NOTHING.
Yesterday was filled with an 18 month old with a fever and a newly
found milk allergy puking all over me and my 4 year old, a 7 year old
NOT making it to the bathroom on time, 3 of my 4 children deciding to
make the bathroom a swimming pool (at different times) and one who
thought black acrylic paint really was the color I should paint the
kitchen table, and hardwood floor, and the kitchen faucet, and bathroom
counter, AND the mirror. All the while I've got about 10 people
and their children expected for a bible study at 6pm. Aren't I
supposed to be spiritually minded or at least cheery? Oh, did I
mention my husband was out of town?? You get the picture??
I even sat and took pictures of birds on the birdfeeder day before
yesterday and didn't get one good photo. (Don't laugh Nancy!!)
Where has my creativity gone? I'm beginning to think it's missing just like TN3JCARTER
went missing a couple weeks ago. I'm so thankful her husband found
her!! If anyone's seen a brain running around full of wonderful
ideas it belongs to me!!! It may come when beckoned if you have a
fist full of chocolate. Desperate measures may need to be taken
so have plenty!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And sometimes I think…..”Who are
you trying to please, Julie?” Maybe it's you guys instead of
Jesus. Maybe my intentions are misguided….”Oh, Father…fill my
thoughts with your thoughts. Let this be about you and not me.”

Well, you made me laugh! And I love your template. (Especially the picture)
I once blogged on yelling at my son “Don’t throw up on the dog!” And, as a matter of fact, ended up sharing tonite about working out with sweatpants that looked like I’d had an accident. Hmmm……no, not real exciting, is it. But funny, yeah, kinda funny.
Hang in there and keep smilin’!!
Maybe you could blog about why you love your camera so much or feel the compulsion to keep changing your blog template. UGH! You, my friend, have issues. You can’t think about what to write because your mind is in a constant flow of “I could take a picture or 12 of that”, “That would make a great scrapbook page.”, “Where is my husband?” , “Why are the boys & Danielle doing that?” and “Calgon take me away!” : )
I love reading your blog. It’s kind of like running over for a visit. You don’t have to clean up or go to extra trouble. Let’s just live life together. He is in the middle of all of that.
Love you,
Nancy
