I stink at blogging in the summer

I'm not going to lie.  I stink at blogging in the summer!  No particular reason other than laziness.  When I was younger and my children were 2,4, and 6 I could clean, cook, do yard work, everyone's clothes were perfect most of the time, I paid the bills, ran everyone to practices and I truly believe even then----I could have blogged. 

But let me tell you, when your children get older and things slow down YOU ARE JUST PLAIN TIRED.  I find myself staring into my diet coke bubbles in the morning (i'm not a coffee drinker) until they fizzle away and 20 minutes has come and gone. And I don't even care.

I'll carry a load of clean laundry by the television and FOX NEWS is on, so I will set in the chair and hold the folded laundry for 30 minutes.  And I don't even care.

I walk out to get the mail and upon carrying it back to the house will stop and pull weeds, or water my dying flowers.  I might even talk to a neighbor or set on the porch.  An hour will have passed and I don't even care.  So blogging in the summer when I get to catch a glimpse of my two college children and their friends flying in and out of the nest is not particularly high on my list of things to do.  Now, my 'baby' is about to start his Senior year of high school.  I've been here twice before and it is heart breaking how little they need me; THAT I do care about. 

I don't have faithful followers so much, but I do not like to start something and not finish it!  So on those days when I cook a beautiful meal that Jacob actually has time for -  I won't blog and I won't care.  But on those days he doesn't need me I'll see you soon on the www...

Just sayin
