The end of the week is here....finally. I mark the days off on the calendar one by one and celebrate when the weekend gets here because I managed to get through another week. I know at some point, life will get easier and it won't be such a struggle to go minute by minute, day by day, week by week. I go in to the stores and I see the Christmas decorations and merchandise going up. Wow, it is September! I'm not ready to jump to Christmas. I don't know how the holidays are going to go. I have recently discovered that one of my biggest fears is the fear of the unknown. But, I comment on other blogs and I offer advice even though I'm not sure I'm really qualified because lord knows I'm not an expert at living life. I just need to keep reminding myself that the unknown is everywhere and you can't run from it so you might as well embrace it. So you don't know if the light at the end of the tunnel is the beginning of a new day or the train barreling right for you. If you don't keep moving forward you will never find out and might just miss out on the best thing life has to offer you. So, I am going to keep working to embrace the unknown and hope Amtrak is on a different route.
Off to enjoy a full weekend of Football & Track Meets!

Weekends are good unless it involves uninstalling old flooring. I also noticed the Christmas stuff going up. It seems to happen earlier every year. I noticed that the last couple of years by the time Christmas got here all the magic was gone and it was just another overloaded day filled with too much cleaning, too much cooking, too much eating, and too much family. So don't jump to Christmas; avoid the songs, don't get sucked into shopping, and ignore the commercialized stuff everywhere. Put your Christmas face on MUCH closer to Christmas. I am envious you get to stay home for Christmas, it will probably even snow and I will miss it.
By the way, you give great advice. This time follow the advice that my students are fond of quoting "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming." Eventually you will find your sunlight.
