The Last Week

We had family visiting last week. I wasn’t planning on taking a break from blogging, but it seems that I did.


It’s been a long week. A long several weeks really.


We found and lost the home of our dreams. We lost the illusion of job security. We lost a friend. Like I said, it’s been a long couple of weeks.


The visit was nice though. These are some pictures from a day trip that we took.


I feel like there are things that I should update people on here, but I don’t really have anything to say at the moment. I’m feeling rather blue to be honest.


I will say that among other things, the great house hunt goes very poorly and that is disheartening. For now I’m just going to leave it at that.


We did start our official “school” year today and that went beautifully. Hopefully the rest of the week, and year, will continue to be just as peaceful and productive.


If nothing else, it feels good to be shifting focus somewhat and pulling more rhythm back into our days.

    Beautiful pictures- beautiful little boys!
    I am so sorry to hear you are blue and things are tough.
    A few years ago when we were hunting for a house we were also very disheartened- it was so frustrating and it looked like it was not going to happen for us. Suddenly the perfect house popped up out of nowhere, but had been right in front of us all along. Something will pop up out of nowhere for you too.
    In the meanwhile, (((hugs))) and positive thoughts sending your way.

    I always love your blog, even if you feel you "don't have much to say". I'm sorry to hear that you are struggling. The process of parting with your house and this time of transition must be really difficult for you.

    I know for me, I often have difficulty enjoying some of the simple joys of motherhood because of the stresses of "grown-up life" gnawing at the edges of my thoughts. I pray that it wouldn't be so for you and that you could fully immerse yourself in those joyful moments and the rest will resolve itself quickly.

    You have such a beautiful family. I'll bet as you get back into the routine of fall you will feel better. It must be so unsettling with everything so up in the air. I, too love your blog. You are a beautiful person.
