Writing a blog everyday is an act of faith. While I was clicking button after button to get to this blank page, my mind was spinning wildly hoping to land on a topic substantial enough that I could write for an extended period. After a long week preparing my three week departure from school (I am part of a team who is testing in all of our schools in the district) my mind appears to be empty. After school I walked the shore path with Rex, shopped for fruit and veggies and prepared a simple dinner of chicken, salad and broccoli. As I age, I yearn for simplicity in all things.
Most days have become simpler since the kids are getting older. We gained a driver in the family who is more than willing to make some pick-ups and drop offs happen. After school today, I walked with Rex long before the sun set. Everyone was busy doing their own thing which allowed me to do my own thing; to walk and empty my head.
I could get used to this simple life. Eat, drink, walk, write and read. Repeat.
