... I am not a full time blogger after all ...

I must admit that I really enjoyed it when I was able to blog at least 5 times a week ... I spent my so-called creative energy taking pictures and writing little bits and pieces of my life ... however, I feel lately I just do not have the energy or time to fit another bit of anything - unfortunately this also includes my running and my yoga ... my photography!

I want to be kind to myself ... as yoga implies ... there have been important milestones reached ... and remind myself that I am not a full time blogger ... but I still feel I have unfinished to do's ... those who know ... know this drives me crazy!!!

... eventhough I would love to be able to write more, read more, snap more ... it just seems to escape me ...

In a nutshell these milestones have been ... as you know ...

- my Tittina is now a Junior in highschool eventhough she doesn't look like one :)

- she also got her drivers licence ... she is not driving alone ... yes, we are those types of parents ... she will drive in time when we feel she is really ready ... I still think she charmed the lady who gave her the driving test ...

- my Nana is now at college ... we dropped off yesterday ... we actually even had our little disagreements ... maybe it was the stress of it all ... I am so proud of her and so happy for her ... it is just bittersweet ...

So I guess I'm allowed ... right ... OK, I do not have an excuse for not exercising ... wish I had one ... I should be starting my half-marathon training again!  I am skipping the Montreal half due to a work meeting conflict ... and, yes, lack of training ... so now I am doing the Charlotte Thunder Road that for some reason I highly dislike and do not want to do!  Why?  I have no idea ... I just do not want to!!!  (BUT ... I am going to TRY to do it!)

So here I leave you with a hope that I will somewhat turn my life around ... with a very proud and difficult moment in my life with my eldest ... all my best in her new life ... her blank slate ... the start of HER life, HER future ...

Our last hug goodbye ... before returning home ... leaving her behind at her new home for the next four years ... a dopo ... J
