Did I say I loved fall?

I take that back. Fall is not my friend. I am not enjoying fall, not at all, it is too leafy, too damp, I do not like this fall at all.

I am sure I would like it if it was not just I raking leaves. Mowing the lawn. Staying up all night with sick children. Or even if I was not scheduling my day errands around nebulizer treatments. Or better yet, not have double the laundry since the children change clothes when they get home. Especially since the dryer is broken.

I am tired, I am. An hour not to worry about the children, school, or other things I must accomplish during the day.

Yet, the things I need a break from are the blessings I am grateful for.

Goodness, it is another Friday.

What can one say? Fridays are good, right? Something to look forward to, weekend, spending time with the ones you love. Family, fellowship, joy, smiles, tears, laughter. Fun memories created to help one survive Mondays.

At this point of our year, all the days blend together in a very conscious effort to keep the children entertained, to keep myself entertained, to accomplish the full day, gather enough sleep to schlepp through another day, no harm nor no foul.

Even with the children, the dog, and the most wonderful friends, supportive church, I am lonely. Nothing compares to holding a certain someone's hand, a slight kiss, or even just a look, that make's one's day ever so much brighter.

Even in this "modern age," when we do talk, it is regarding matters that need to be addressed, after all, we are both busy, equal weight of being apart and respective duties. After all, one is always most needed when one is carrying a conversation on the phone. And goodness knows Peanut/aeggi has given us enouht to speak about.

I miss u C, and still am oh-so-ready for when you are home.
