Wow!
When life changes drastically, in
a good way.
When routine becomes memory and
tasks change from have to, to want to, the everyday takes on new meaning.
That’s life now.
Retired from my
all-over-the-clock 9 to 5 (which never was a 9 to 5) but a nights, weekends,
and holidays ‘must,’ I could cry because
I am so grateful to have a normal life back. Um, I have cried with the relief
of it all.
The only downside, oh wait, there
is no downside.
On a personal note, the past two
months have been filled with family. I won’t go into the particulars but I have
been able to spend time with a soon-to-be two year old and an nine month old,
which has filled my heart in ways I not thought possible. Babies put everything
in perspective.
But what about writing. What
about the dream?
Still there and back in earnest
next week.
When my daughters were little I
never (not once) regretted the business I closed and management career I put on hold for eight years.
And now?
Not one second am I regretting my
pen on pause.
BUT
Get ready boys and girls. Next
week. I'm lookin' for ink.
It's awesome that you are able to spend time with your grandbabies, 2Ns. My parents have realised that their grandkids are all starting to grow up and forge their own lives and the time they have to spend with grandparents is lessening. Enjoy the days while you can =)
ReplyDeleteAJ I am drinking in every minute. It's wonderful. My oldest grandchild is four and already she belongs to the world. I am blown away by how much she knows and how damn smart kids her age are.
