Day Forty-One..Back To Reality




Hi.

Today I woke up and I was back in 2009! Tee entire weekend I was in and out of feeling like a 16-18 year old and occasionally feeling 48. It was a definitely a surreal weekend. Today was like any normal Monday. My hubby brought me coffee in bed and I sipped it with no regard to having to rush out of the house. The boys went off to school ( hubby takes them on Mondays) and I got on the computer. My reality these days (besides my normal mom and wife stuff) is getting myself dialed into the blog world. It is different than anything I have ever experienced. There are many blogs that I can get onto. Blogs for women, blogs for writers, online magazines. It is great that there is so much opportunity, but where does one stop? I have to say I am enjoying reading others thoughts and opinions.

The Internet on my phone has caused me not to shut my head off. I go on several times in the day to twitter, face book, blog and check to see if I have comments (come on guys..can you comment every once in a while..it doesn't have to be nice..it can be constructive!!!!) This has become a full time job...with no pay but definitely worthwhile. I am getting closer to having the courage to start the novel. So, I must thank-you for allowing me to indulge in my creative process and for you taking the time to read my comings and goings.

Why Listen to Wolffie? Because I get it. So, there might be a little part of me that is stuck in my teens. I picked my son up early (the one who had a concussion). We were waiting to pick up my other boys. He was doing some reading and I was bored. I just figured out what the little picture of a camera next to my text box was: for taking pictures and being able to send it along with a text. What a concept. I immediately took several shots of myself and sent them off to various people. I was having a so much fun and totally distracting my son's reading efforts. Doesn't it feel good to let loose? I think my kids thoroughly enjoy when I laugh at myself. Their smiles say it all. Sometimes I am so into being orderly and on target and "the serious mom" that I forget to show my kids the funny side of me. It's okay for me to be goofy and "just be" in the moment . The pics above are a sample of Wolffie being Wolfffie!!!

Mantra for today: Let go of pretense and just be/
Can you relate? More will be revealed. Please come back for more.

Signing off until we meet again.

In Love and Peace,

Wolffie
