In a fog...

I have been in a bit of a thick fog lately that has sapped me of most of my motivation and ability to get just about anything done. Hence the gap in blog updates. I'm working at finding the sunshine again but am struggling..

Everything just got upended with Rob's new assignment news. Even though we knew it as coming, the sudden turn around just knocked me on my.... It felt like for awhile that regular life just got put on hold...there were so many other decisions to make and shopping to do...I couldn't handle the normal everyday ones. Even figuring out what to feed the family for dinner became more difficult. Don't worry, we are fed and have clean clothes regularly but it requires a bit more effort than usual. Last week it took me 3 days to get the clean sheets on my bed - it was easier just to pull the blanket up each night than it was to take the 5 minutes to actually pull the bed together.

I wonder if the boys have noticed a difference in me? Do I ask them or do I convince myself that I don't want to know?

So where do I go from here? I have no idea. Summer seems like a big jumble of responsibilities and endless comings and goings too. I certainly don't want to wish the summer away because then so much more rests on my shoulders come September. For now I shall resume making my to-do lists in my red notebook and I shall take each day as it comes. I'll laugh as much as I can and sneak candy when the boys aren't looking! Oh...or I could break into a box of my favorite Girl Scout cookies....
