Heaviness

We prepare for Sukkot - a celebration time!

But I am feeling pain

For my blogfriend and and for my cousin

A couple years ago I had a dream before Rosh Hashana that I was going to die that year.

I'm still here.

Every year I wonder, what is the plan this year? How hard is it going to be?

Prayer - How do I pray more?

HE listens to my prayers, I believe that.

Still here

I know it's been awhile since I last posted.
With the holidays, kids back to school and my trying to manage time, blogging hasn't been a priority.

Just stopping by to wish everyone a Happy New Year and letting you know I am doing as fine as I can...

Be in touch.

Reflection

I was on the phone with the mother of one of Ely’s friends today trying to figure out a carpool to gymnastics for this week. Then she called back to discuss how many classes they were going to miss because of the holidays. I hung up and routinely walked into my bathroom.

In the mirror I saw a reflection of someone I almost didn’t recognize.

My hair wasn’t covered (with no one home these days and the heat, I usually don’t wear a hat in the house) and something about how I saw myself was different.

How could it be that that funky chick in the mirror has a daughter that she is responsible for?

Who I saw was a teenage girl from 10th grade. Reflecting back to me in the mirror was not a 41 year old mother of three teenagers and a 7 year old.

Sometimes I confuse myself.

When did I grow up and have a reality that carries so much responsibility?

Reflections can really tell you a lot if you look closely enough.

Everything new

New school

New job

New kitchen lights

New eating habits

New friends

New families

New mindset

New attitude

New grass

New voodoo doctor (I hope)

New year comin'

NED and I love mango!

I am still alive - just busy and avoiding writing about it.

Wow! Over 40,000 hits

How'd I miss that?

Should I post a question that no one will answer?

Why not...

What changes would you make in your life if you had no fear?

If you feel like it, think about it and give me an answer.

Meantime...

Stay tuned
