FINALLY.................

sigh.....its been a great day! I have realized something quite profound about myself this weekend. I can feel good about being in this house, on this property and not leaving....if my house is clean. My biggest and most constant obstacle is physically being able to stay on top of my game! Living in this house is literally LIVING IN THIS HOUSE!! And it never ends.....at this moment, the house is CLEAN! and i feel Calm. Do i need to work on trying to be content whether or not my house is tidy? i realize its an uphill battle, and one that is normally only won when the kids are asleep---but how i feel right now seems to make it worth it.....

It really was a great day though--we all went to victoria with chris so he could play his field hockey game...while he was doing that, i sold my sit n stand stroller to a girl who used to know me from qwanoes and only asked since my name on my email address looked familliar--so..she bought that stroller (she doesn't even have that 2nd baby yet---some people are such keeners!). And i bought a double jogger since i really missed that other one i sold a few weeks ago---didn't know what i was buying til i got there and it turned out to be a double Chariot jogger--had a few spotty mold parts that have scrubbed mostly off..but i picked it up for $40--so i am thrilled.

Life feels good tonight...calm, healthy, happy, content..and i can smell my bread baking....what could be better?
