I was
looking forward to summer. My work schedule had slowed down, kids were out of
school, and our life pace had slowed. My head was swimming with these amazing
projects I could do. I could remodel
our bathroom. I could start that
needlepoint I have had sitting around for 2 years. I could finish our backyard
landscape plan… (believe me my list is much longer than what I have shared
here). Viewing my calendar this
weekend (and noting that summer was going to be over in 4 weeks) made me
realize that while all this creative project planning is great I have actually
not lifted a finger to make many of these plans a reality. (Are these just
daydreams or flights of fancy?) After giving this perplexing (lack of
action) situation thought I realized that while I am inspired to do a great
many creative things ….I am just too tired. Of course this realization brings
on other thoughts. Too tired? (Nah.) Lazy? (Nah.) Let’s see… working,
housekeeping, husband, appointments, kids and activities… perhaps too
busy? (Yup.) That’s
it! Too busy. After all, I can’t be lazy. Me lazy?
(Unbelievable. I can’t be lazy.) It’s
just the thought of all that hard work makes me tired. (Yeah...that's it!)
