10 weeks off!!!

OK so I haven't blogged in quite some time, you would think with having 10 weeks off for the summer I could do it everyday.  But alas this is not the case.  I am going a little stir crazy, it is like this balancing act.  During the school year I do not have but 45 minutes to one hour myself a day, which  is scheduled for a work out.  Now here I am with all this time and not knowing what to do with it, well kinda not knowing what to do with it.  I have cleaned out two closets and one & a half bedrooms ( I am taking a break from the 1/2 one). 

I was reading an article the other day which included the Portuguese word Saudade which may  be translated as a deep longing or yearning for something which does not exist or is unattainable.  A common feeling in my life.  I found great satisfaction in finding this word for I have not found a word in English to quite describe my feelings, plus having the world be a foreign word makes it even more romantic.  OK time to get back to the other room to finish the cleaning out, YEAH ME!!!

Oh I also found another reason why I have not blogged such lately but it is actually a post by http://www.fightingfrumpy.com/ Fighting Off the Frumpy called Hey Look a Poem. Any one who is a parent can appreciate this poem or  use it as an explanation as to why the blogs have not been flowing.  Have a great day by the way I have 7 weeks left.

The End and The Beginning

 Ok Last post was on 1/10/2023. Interesting how I don't really use this often.  I was looking for my writing journal, to express and write out the past few days events.   I couldn't find it, but didn't look too hard as it is 6 am and I am enjoying the quiet of the morning. I tried to do  the documenting  of the past few days in my Self Authoring Journal but that was more focused on other things and not my need of documenting the past few days events.  The Self Authoring journal was a Christmas gift.  I started it this past week.  It has various sections asking a person to reflect on themselves in regards to their past ,present & future.  I wrote about a past event.  An event that I experienced early in my life.  A violating experience of a house robbery.   Then a few days later as my sister was checking my mom's mail, she came across my parents house ransacked and broken into.   I find that to be a very ...

Wonder if......

Wonder if I would feel much better if I could sleep at night. Why does sleep have to evade me? I am exhausted and burnt out right now!!!! You would think that by being so tired one would doze off into dreamland once the head hits the pillow, but no that is not the case. I may fall asleep but then awaken with thoughts of everything that is going on in my life at once. I try to push it all out of my head but it keeps circling around. I chant to myself in my head sleep, sleep , sleep, sleep, sleep as each thought tries to shove the sleep sleep out of the way. I do not want to try meds, I have tried relaxation, yoga, warm milk, warm bath, teas but when I can't sleep I just can't sleep. I would love to dream!!!!

heartbroken

What happens now? As i wonder just how, I have fallen in love with you? For it's nothing you do , just you being you! Standing between two. My heart belonging to you. The other i am bound, with no love to be found. My mind says let go, my heart kicks and screams no!!! Nothing but screams holding onto a dream. A dream of a man, accepting my love but he no longer can. How to live with so much to give? To hold it within, Would it be a sin?
