I'll tell ya....I don't blog here at the computer as much as I do in my head, because, I READ TOO MUCH! Well, I don't really mean I read too much, because everything I read is worthy! I have "collected" new (new to me!) bloggers like flies on fruit salad, and I love keeping up with them! I may not have a whole bunch of new followers of my blog, and that's just fine with me, because I don't blog enough to keep people visiting! I owe those of you that are reading right now, a big 'ole THANK YOU! So those that I have collected are new ones I am following. Mom's from all walks of life. I learn so much from you guys, I SERIOUSLY mean that. It feels SO good to finally, after 15 years, see that I am one of a BIG CLUB, and I am not doing half bad at this mommy thing!
I have been a SAHM for all my mom years. Here and there, I took a small part-time job for a few months, spreading my wings, giving them that much needed stretch from time to time. I also did A LOT of baby-sitting here in my home. Have done TONS of volunteering at my kids' school. I am the planner in my family as well, so dinners, reunions...yeah, that's all me. But this last year has been the first where I really haven't done anything except BE MOM.
I love it. LOOOOOVE it. Although I have started college, it is very very NON-stressful. I planned it that way, and it has stayed that way. Only 2 classes at a time, one online. I am not taking any classes this summer, although so many college students can't understand why not. "Just take one class! You'll be that much farther ahead!" And???? So?? I don't want to be ahead! The PLAN ( I love plans, I plan plans) was to stay unstressed! I will finish my 2 year degree in probably 4 years, but that is when Little Man will be 5. Either school age, or something. So I shall stick with this plan! Loving being a SAHM only, thanking my ever so hard-working husband for making it possible for me to be here, and going to class once a week.
But back to what my problem is........but now I'm thinking it's not a problem! I do want to try and write more though, because what SAHM doesn't have a ton of things to write about! And I know THAT's true, because, remember, I read all of you guys! So entertaining. :) Keep up the good work.
Lisa, I read this about three times. You said so much that you didn't write. This post is full of your heart. I visit you because I'm enjoying getting to know you, not because you're a blogger (smile). Have a joyful day in Motherhood!
