Reflection

The sky reflected
I’ve been feeling a little uninspired lately. I don’t know what’s wrong. I’m in some kind of slump. No making. No drawing. I haven’t felt like getting on the computer. I’ve barely downloaded any photos off the camera all month though I have been taking pictures when the mood strikes, like this one from today as we were driving home.

Maybe I’m a morning person, after all, and the kids staying up late for months and less sun has knocked me for a loop. I don’t know. I haven’t felt like doing much of anything. I feel like I’m drowning in day to day living, the days are too short and I can’t get anything done.

I’ve been thinking about what I want to do with this space here of mine and I honestly don’t have an answer anymore. Yes, I’ve actually thought about not blogging anymore seeing as how I haven’t been doing much of it.

Would I be missed if I stopped writing here? I’ve always said that I write for myself. I’ve always thought of this as a journal that I can go back and look at whenever or wherever I have an internet connection. A journal strangers and family can look at. I am talking to my future self. But now? I don’t have anything to say to myself. I am royally stuck. I think I need to change gears.

Sorry for the quiet. I feel like I can’t get out from under the kids lately. Know what I mean?

Family Photos

Posted in: Family, Monthly Family Picture

Here are our monthly family pictures, late. We kept forgetting. But anyhoo…this was on Isabelle’s day. I like the kids getups.
Isabelle at six years three months and Nathan at two years almost three months family picture

Nathan and Isabelle
With Nathan I’m specifically talking about the Hello Kitty jacket. He didn’t choose it. Alan did. It was cold outside and Alan was in a rush and grabbed something, anything. With Isabelle it was her princess crown and the curls she asked me to put in her hair. We were in a rush since it was getting dark so I only did the front, you can’t see the back so why curl it.

Then for Nathan’s picture day, him in his Batman shirt. He specifically asked for it. You can’t see the velcro-ed cape on his back but it is definitely there. He has gone a little cuckoo over Batman. In fact, tonight, after his bath he was complaining because he wanted to wear his dirty Batman shirt again. And I may or may not have added some velcro to a regular shirt so he could wear the cape. And then Isabelle with that do-dad on her head and the play necklace. It’s so funny the things she wants to wear.

Nathan and Isabelle
Too bad we weren’t late by another day taking Nathan’s picture. Why? Isabelle lost one of her bottom teeth at dinner tonight. And we could have showed you her new gap. Which reminds me. Tooth fairy. Right NOW. Ok…goodnight before we have a repeat of this.

Why It’s Cold In Here

Why it's cold in here
Right now I’m typing this wedged in between the two kids all snug and warm. Them. Not me. I’m cold. Especially my right foot. Why my right foot in particular? I don’t know but anyhoo… Why not me? Because a few minutes ago I was in the freezing living room drawing this. Nathan started crying. I hurriedly finished it and here I am snug and not warm because no one turned on the heat. Der!

Thank goodness for warm kids to put my cold feet on. ;-)

Shout It Out

Shout it out!
The other day we were at a bookstore. I knelt down to look at some books and kenlt right on someone’s spilt coffee. Nice. Thanks anonymous booger for spilling your coffee and just leaving it.

I was worried it might stain. Alan told me to just shout it out. I don’t think that’s what he meant.

*I didn’t really shout at it. I thought about shouting at it though. :)
