I cannot remember the last time I wrote 2 updates in 2 days, but here I am getting back into the writing mode. I miss having a place to write freely about whatever I want, but I think that I have finally found it. Keeping a journal is so very satisfying to me. I used to keep a LiveJournal. I updated it throughout my teen and into my early twenty-something years with many cringe-inducing entries. I eventually started updating LiveJournal less and less as Facebook became more and more popular.
I have a major love-hate relationship with Facebook. I love how connected Facebook allows me to be and I hate how connected Facebook allows me to be. I despise the drama that comes with Facebook. That site can be horribly damaging on relationships. So, I am in need of a safe space to vent without causing drama. I need a place to simply be still and to reflect. I want to let my thoughts spill onto the page without having to filter myself. For the time being, I am not sure if I want people from my every day life to be able to identify me from what I make available on here (although some of them can anyway, so please hush if that is you). Like I said, this blog is my safe space, so I think a little anonymity would be wise for now. You never know who is reading...

Anyway, today my husband is working a 14 hour shift. He will be gone 9am to 11pm. I do alot of solo parenting, which is not anywhere remotely as difficult as single parenting in the emotional sense of things, but it still has its challenges. I find that our days go smoothest when we have a schedule, which never really happens on the weekends. We still managed to have a great Saturday nonetheless. :) Amazingly, I managed to have the entire house clean by 3 - with only some laundry left (as usual). I am in the process of switching the closets from cold weather to warm weather and I feel like I am drowning in clothing right now.
I took a break from sorting clothes to take advantage of the beautiful Spring weather. The kiddos and I ended up going to the park in the afternoon where the girls played and little man just chased everyone. We then met up for dinner at Ruby Tuesday with Grandpa. Everyone had a great time! Now that my little man is almost 3, getting out of the house with all 3 of them is so much easier. I feel like we can all move around so much quicker, which is a good thing because we have alot planned for this summer. I will save the details on that for another entry. We have church, brunch, and bookstore in the morning. :)
